Hi, I have been playing around QuickChat example app from clarion and quite amazed on how it is instantaneously send and receive data(both tried locally and via cloud). my question is, is the protocol used is almost the same with websockets? Are there any additional securities to keep in mind when I want to implement this on real world solutions?
The short answer is “no”. The longer answer is “if you add enough code”.
You don’t really say if youre looking at this from a client or server point of view.
SV Sockets are raw low level TCP/IP. With enough code you could implement a WebSockets Server or Client. Clent would take “reasonable” code, Server would take a lot (lot) more code.
FYI - both Server and Client implementations are included in NetTalk, so I’m basing the work required on what it took to add it there.
SV Sockets are more “Windows Sockets”, not “Web Sockets.”
