websockets client api in Qt (C++)
Hi everyone. Is there a websockets client library or an api implementation done in Qt. I’m not interested in using webkit. I’m just asking if there is a C++/Qt implementation or if we can expect one in future versions.
Thanks

oh. sorry. Websockets is a new protocol for sending/receiving real-time data in browsers(html5 browsers). More info in wikipedia [en.wikipedia.org]
what do you mean by websockets client? do you want to access web content? it’s already possible with QTCPSocket.
There’s a websocket server project here [gitorious.org].
Perhaps it can be used as a starting point for a client, but of course it’s tempting to use QtWebkit to implement the client side (much easier).

Thanks. I’ve already knew about that… much easier?…probably … much faste?… probably not
Specially when you think about mobile devices.
Hi 2beers! I wonder if you found anything interesting?
I’ve stopped searching. For the moment I’ve postponed my project. I’ve talked with the person who is making the qt webkit server and he told me that a client would be a good idea, but time is not on his side for the moment.
Let us know if you find anything
I have found websocket++ http://www.zaphoyd.com/websocketpp wich support the client (not event try – but I think it will work).
If there is a native Qt client that support signal and slot will be great.
