Linux Port #249

Open nuclearace opened 8 years ago

nuclearace commented 8 years ago

Since apple has released the Swift source code http://swift.org/ we should look into whether this library can be made to compile on Linux.

This is a long-term goal.

nuclearace commented 8 years ago

https://github.com/apple/swift-corelibs-foundation/blob/master/Docs/Status.md going to be important for this library.

For that we will need a replacement for the objective-c Security framework.

nuclearace commented 8 years ago

What do you mean?

oleduc commented 8 years ago

We can't use objective-c frameworks on linux. Security framework is an objective-c library, or at least I think so.

nuclearace commented 8 years ago

Well, I don't think anything in WebSocket is actually using Security. Since commenting it out doesn't seem to break anything.

nuclearace commented 8 years ago

I guess it's always imported with Foundation on Darwin.

oleduc commented 8 years ago

Oh good, I thought we were using it for SSL.

yanniks commented 7 years ago

Any updates on this?

nuclearace commented 7 years ago

So I have the linux branch to test this out... It's not looking good. I think it would require dropping ObjC support for the protocols or do the ugly thing done in that branch. Plus I'm seeing some URLSession crashes from unimplemented stuff.

Any chance Linux support will actually happen anytime soon? 🙁
