    Websocket client question

    Hi,

    I'm trying to make a windows app that connects via websockets.

    I create a socket (AF_UNSPEC, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) using this example
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...=vs.85%29.aspx
    and send a handshake header to the test server:

    GET / HTTP/1.1
    Host: echo.websocket.org
    Upgrade: websocket
    Connection: Upgrade
    Sec-WebSocket-Key: XbaSVjzMpuugjiIaTS1SYK8XDEE=
    Origin: http://echo.websocket.org
    Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: chat, superchat
    Sec-WebSocket-Version: 13

    In response I get a confirmation from the server:

    HTTP/1.1 101 Web Socket Protocol Handshake
    Upgrade: WebSocket
    Connection: Upgrade
    Sec-WebSocket-Accept: 3FO+JS5IVEBEOLgEjiwoLSsQfAg=
    Server: Kaazing Gateway
    Date: Tue, 10 Sep 2013 03:33:01 GMT

    immediately followed by a websocket connection close frame, so the socket connection closes right away.

    Can anyone please tell me what I might be missing here, what might cause this connection to close and how to keep it alive?

    Thank you!

    Perhaps, you close the connection in your code?

    EDIT: I figured it out.

    I'm trying to make an application in VB (or C#, but preferable VB) that deals with data from a websocket stream. I can't for the life of me get the app to connect to the stream and feed the data. If you have any simple examples I could work off it would be appreciated. Thanks
