Hi Folks,
Can we get a measure again as to the interest in web sockets implementation
in livecode?
As far as I know we still do not have one that is available or able to be
contributed to,
I'd be willing to put in some engineering time if there was help from
others available.
Here are the full spe
i'm interested in client side, especially on mobile. we have an app that is
in the wild that would be much better if we could stop pinging the server
every five seconds.

Given the elapsed time so far, maybe we can find another way to do this.

Richard, thanks for chiming in.
1. dunno, it can't be that hard, i would take an existing implementation in
another language and rewrite it in livecode.
2. dunno
3. interesting thought, I will look into testing this.
4. many blockchains are websockets only, and most API with data "streams".
Mike,
I was thinking the same thing.

One thing to bear in mind is that Livecode does not support secure sockets
(despite what the Dictionary might say).

LC just provides raw sockets. You can implement a TLS equivalent with a bit of
elbow grease. Writing your own protocol gives a lot of control.
TLS is something you may have to use to check boxes. Out of curiosity is there
a market for something like this within the community?

This is based on the Dictionary example for the "open socket" command. It runs
without error, and the callback works.
on mouseup
open secure sock
If you are going to roll your own security with raw sockets, what I had to do
was encrypt the data then base64encode it, then reverse the process on the
other side.
