Sample using WebSocket please

[anderskristian]

The sample using SockJS makes the solution very difficult to understand.

SockJS will first use WebSocket - as I understand. Then it will change protocol to other things maybe Comet??

And I find this is NO good for the plugin. We need to make sure that the WebSocket specification is solved to call the plugin xxx-websocket. And I cannot make that work (other issue)

the intention of the plugin is to make spring-websocket with its stomp broker and annotation handling available to grails apps. if you just want to use springs websocket api (i.e. implement a handler) without the sock.js fallback behavior you can always do so without this plugin (http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/spring-framework-reference/html/websocket.html#websocket-server). i think calling this plugin spring-websocket is just fine because

• thats the framework it builds upon/supports and
• if client and server both support websocket communication, websocket is the protocol and transport that will be used. fallback transports are necessary because this is not guaranteed.

works as designed. spring and sockjs docs should have the general fallback transport behavior covered.

Thanks a lot for your quick answers. OK for me to close it..
