[jetty-users] WebSocketClient - with 2013-04-08

[Max Kington <mkington@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,

I've been playing with websockets in Jetty 9, I'm currently using
2013-04-08.  Clearly the api is in flux somewhat so examples on the
t'internet seem to be a little out of date.  Also for alot of the client
source, many of the relevent git links reference dead or defunct
branches and stacks of now dead code.

I *think* I've worked out the changes in WebSocketListener
onWebSocketConnect(WebSocketConnection) -> onWebSocketConnect(Session)
and send messages back and forth using
session.getRemoteEndPoint().send*().  I noticed though that the methods
have gone from write*() to send*() so I just would like confirming that
I'm not too close to the metal and I am using the appropriate level of
abstraction (i.e. the as far away from the guts until I have e genuine
need to go lower).

I found,
http://jetty.4.x6.nabble.com/jetty-users-Jetty-9-and-WebSocket-td4960163.html#a4960172,
which suggests a chap is doing the same but never saw that tailed.

My use case fwiw will involve a number of non browser based clients so
I'm going to be very biased towards using these libraries.

Cheers,
Max Kington

p.s. Can I update docs/wiki somewhere with examples as I go?
