Re: [libmicrohttpd] tiny websocket above LMHD

[silvioprog]

Hello again José,

I tried the library on Linux and Windows. On Linux, it works, i.e., the client sends text to the server, the only problem I've found was that Ctrl+C in the client closes the server too, but a server shouldn't be closed by a client. On Windows (latest mingw-w64), I couldn't compile it. I've got some errors like "array type has incomplete element type 'struct iovec'", "'F_SETFL' undeclared", "'O_NONBLOCK' undeclared", maybe by missing symbols specific from Linux that aren't present on Windows. I've tried to solve it, but it is a little bit hard to be solved, and IIUC, the library would use IOCP on Windows, but I'm not familiar with that. :-/

Anyway, it can be used as base to develop a cross-platform WS solution to be used with MHD.

Thank you!

Hello José,

first, thanks for this awesome work! I took a look at the sources and it seems very clean. I'll test it on Windows. I saw you did the client too, so it will be very helpful for who those want to study WS.

But, I have two questions: is it very difficult to do a minimal WS example to distribute in the MHD examples? If so, will mark the #5501 as 'won't fix' and close the issue. The other question is if it could be used as dependency in a library under LGPL license.

Once more, thank you very much for sharing it! ☺

I am proud to share with you a tiny implementation of websocket with
libmicrohttpd.

You can find it there:

I tried to give something small and useful (based on some previous work
I made).

It is not perfect so feedback are welcome. Especially I only work on
linux. People on Mac or BSD are welcome to submit issues or pull
requests. People of windows also of course.

Best regards
José Bollo
