Feature/documentation request: A Java socket.io client #43

Open erelsgl opened 11 years ago

erelsgl commented 11 years ago

Is it possible to create a Java socket.io client that will connect to the socket.io server (without Javascript)?

It seems the package contains a SocketIOClient class, so, it's only a matter of documentation - how to use it to connect to a server directly.

pablojr commented 11 years ago

It seems to me that SocketIOClient (beyond being an interface) it's intended to model the clients connected to the server, not to implement a client to connect to another socket.io server

I think this can be a nice addition to this already fantastic package.

mrniko commented 11 years ago

pablojr, right! SocketIOClient it's browser-client abstraction and not designed to be a standalon client.

why not just use this https://github.com/Gottox/socket.io-java-client for this scenario?

This is a good solution for the websocket transport, but it doesn't support xhr-polling transport.
