| Some implementation notes: |
| |
| There is an included flash object (web-socket-js) that is used to |
| emulate websocket support on browsers without websocket support |
| (currently only Chrome has WebSocket support). |
| |
| Javascript doesn't have a bytearray type, so what you get out of |
| a WebSocket object is just Javascript strings. Javascript has UTF-16 |
| unicode strings and anything sent through the WebSocket gets converted |
| to UTF-8 and vice-versa. So, one additional (and necessary) function |
| of wsproxy is base64 encoding/decoding what is sent to/from the |
| browser. |
| |
| Building web-socket-js emulator: |
| |
| cd include/web-socket-js/flash-src |
| mxmlc -static-link-runtime-shared-libraries WebSocketMain.as |
| |
| Building release tarball: |
| - not really necessary since tagged revision can be downloaded |
| from github as tarballs |
| |
| git archive --format=tar --prefix=websockify-${WVER}/ v${WVER} > websockify-${WVER}.tar |
| gzip websockify-${WVER}.tar |
