Has anyone else got anything working on the IBMi with regard to websockets?
I have just completed the first phase of integrating Renaissance with a
jWebsocket server on the i and so far so good. It seems to work pretty well
- apart from the fact that I cannot get any life out of Safari. Also, IE
doesn't support websockets until IE10, so that uses a flash-bridge instead
at the moment - but that works pretty well too.
I picked jWebsocket (www.jwebsocket.org<http://www.jwebsocket.org>)
because it is written in java and therefore runs almost straight out of
the box on the i - and the client-side stuff provided links nicely with
jQuery. All I had to do was create my own plug-in for the server that
makes use of jt400native.jar to enable data queues and direct calls.
My only concern with the jWebsocket server is that it appears to have gone
quiet. No new beta versions since May this year. I am wondering if I have
backed the wrong horse for my first delve into this. This is the main
reason for me canvassing feedback on what other people are up to with
websockets.
For anyone interested, there is a noddy demo function available at
http://rns.coraltree.co.uk on the Developers Examples and Demos menu
(user id and password both "demo") that I have been using to test things.
The demo is not very exciting (until you appreciate the avenues that
websockets opens up for you). Most of the time the jWebsocket server is
active but I occasionally shut it down while testing.
