[jetty-users] websocket client

[Brodie Thiesfield <brofield@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I see from the feature list that Jetty has an async HTTP client
available. We are thinking to use Jetty as the server infrastructure
for our app. It will be basically proxying requests and modifying the
HTML/CSS/JS responses, where the transformation part of the processing
is done by another server.

We are planning to talk with the other server using the Jetty async
HTTP client (SOAP over HTTP). However, since the server also supports
SOAP over WebSocket, and there are benefits to us in using WebSocket
we would like to use that.

I know that WS spec is still quite unstable, however since there is
server side support in Jetty, and client-side HTTP, I have hope for an
async WebSocket client too. Is there one, or is there any plans to
introduce one?
