A few things have changed since this library was written:
As of late 2018, Stack Overflow (Stack Exchange) have migrated away from NetGain, instead using Kestrel's inbuilt web-socket support over HTTP/1.*; it is entirely possible that as we delve more into HTTP/2, we look more in the direction of SSE (EventSource
).
So: we're not actively working with, or working on, this library. If you have a burning desire to take it further as an official maintainer (perhaps with some tweaks to naming, obviously) - let me know!
NetGain supports:
StackExchange.NetGain is built as a single assembly, StackExchange.NetGain.dll.
StackExchange.NetGain is available on the [NuGet Gallery]
You can add StackExchange.NetGain to your project with the NuGet Package Manager, by using the following command in the Package Manager Console.
PM> Install-Package StackExchange.NetGain
using System;
using System.Net;
using StackExchange.NetGain;
using StackExchange.NetGain.WebSockets;
