Good news. The WebSocket implementation has reached a state where you should be able to play with it. Receiving and sending of binary and text data via streams/writers and messages is all working as long as you don't use continuation frames. See the Echo example for the general idea. Control messages are not supported at all (so you can't close the connection yet). You'll need to apply [1] to trunk. I'm leaning towards committing this on the grounds that it changes very little of the existing code and - fingers crossed - it should stay that way. It will be easier for the wider community to experiment and provide patches once it is in trunk. I expect that the back-port to 7.0.x will wait until things were more feature complete and any obvious performance issues had been addressed. There are features still to be implemented and I know there is plenty of scope to improve performance. One example is that the reading and writing of data passes through rather more layers than it needs to. I'd like to explore adding rawRead() and rawWrite() to the InputBuffer and OutputBuffer which would access the socket directly. Another area is GC. I have paid little attention to GC concerns while writing this. I dread to think how much heap this will chew up under load. I haven't approached the Jetty folks regarding aligning to a common interface just yet. I want to let things bed down a little more first. Anyway, I hope you enjoy playing with this. As always, feedback welcome.
