NOTE: this is a legacy release of the library
The 0.3.x version (Experimental branch) is the preferred release for all users and is scheduled to be merged into the master branch in the near future. All new development should start there.
There are a number of breaking API changes going from 0.2.x to 0.3.x. If you have an existing 0.2.x codebase that you are not ready to upgrade yet there is now a 0.2.x branch that will be maintained for that purpose.
WebSocket++ is a C++ library that impliments RFC6455, the WebSocket protocol. It can be used to build applications that feature WebSocket functionality.
