wslay The WebSocket library in C
|
|
|
|
Wslay is a WebSocket library written in C. It implements the protocol
|
|
version 13 described in RFC 6455. This library offers 2 levels of API:
|
|
event-based API and frame-based low-level API. For event-based API, it
|
|
is suitable for non-blocking reactor pattern style. You can set
|
|
callbacks in various events. For frame-based API, you can send
|
|
WebSocket frame directly. Wslay only supports data transfer part of
|
|
WebSocket protocol and does not perform opening handshake in HTTP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Wslay supports:
|
|
|
|
Text/Binary messages.
|
|
Automatic ping reply.
|
|
Callback interface.
|
|
External event loop.
|
|
|
|
Wslay does not perform any I/O operations for its own. Instead, it
|
|
offers callbacks for them. This makes Wslay independent on any I/O
|
|
frameworks, SSL, sockets, etc. This makes Wslay portable across
|
|
various platforms and the application authors can choose freely I/O
|
|
frameworks.
