The WebSocketListener class provides simple methods that listen for and accept incoming WebSocket connection requests asynchronously. It is a lightweight listener with an API very similar to the System.Net.TcpListener class. It does not use the Microsoft's System.Net.WebSockets namespace. WebSocketListener has been designed to provide WebSocket connectivity to other applications, in the same way that System.Net.TcpListener provides TCP connectivity. It is not a communication framework on its own and it does not provide any kind of publisher/subscriber pattern or reliable messaging beyond TCP.

Features

  • It can work with both Text or Binary messages
  • It supports per-message deflate compression
  • It can work with multiple WebSocket standards simultaneously
  • It can work with cookies and custom HTTP response statuses
  • It detects and disconnects half open connections
  • It handles interleaved control frames transparently
