CoreWebSocket is an C language, Core Foundation based library for iOS and Mac OSX. It can be used from Objective-C.
WebSocket enables low latency, bi-directional, full-duplex communication channel over TCP with web browser. It works with all modern web browsers including Safari, Chrome, Firefox and Opera. It works with iOS Safari as well.
To get the library using git in your project:
git submodule add git://github.com/mirek/CoreWebSocket.git CoreWebSocket
Then to add the library to your project
- Add CoreWebSocket.xcodeproj to project
- In to targets Build Phases
- In Target Dependencies add
- CoreWebSocket
- In Link Binary With Libraries add
- CFNetwork.framework
- CoreServices.framework
- libcrypto.dylib
- CoreWebSocket.framework
- Add Build Phase > Add Copy Files
- Set Destination to be Frameworks
- Add CoreWebSocket.framework
- In Target Dependencies add
- Clean
- Build CoreWebSocket
- Build your app
Exmaple AppDelegate.m
#import "AppDelegate.h"
#include "CoreWebSocket/CoreWebSocket.h"
@implementation AppDelegate
void Callback(WebSocketRef self, WebSocketClientRef client, CFStringRef value) {
if (value) {
CFShow(value);
}
}
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification
{
WebSocketRef webSocket = WebSocketCreateWithHostAndPort(NULL, kWebSocketHostAny, 6001, NULL);
if (webSocket) {
webSocket->callbacks.didClientReadCallback = Callback;
}
}
