[section Using WebSocket]
|
2017-06-03 18:40:28 -07:00

|
The WebSocket Protocol enables two-way communication between a client
|
|
|
|
|
running untrusted code in a controlled environment to a remote host that has
|
|
|
|
|
opted-in to communications from that code. The protocol consists of an opening
|
|
|
|
|
handshake followed by basic message framing, layered over TCP. The goal of
|
|
|
|
|
this technology is to provide a mechanism for browser-based applications
|
|
|
|
|
needing two-way communication with servers without relying on opening multiple
|
|
|
|
|
HTTP connections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Beast provides developers with a robust WebSocket implementation built on
|
|
|
|
|
Boost.Asio with a consistent asynchronous model using a modern C++ approach.
