Some implementation notes:

There is an included flash object (web-socket-js) that is used to

emulate websocket support on browsers without websocket support

(currently only Chrome has WebSocket support).

Javascript doesn't have a bytearray type, so what you get out of

a WebSocket object is just Javascript strings. Javascript has UTF-16

unicode strings and anything sent through the WebSocket gets converted

to UTF-8 and vice-versa. So, one additional (and necessary) function

of websockify is base64 encoding/decoding what is sent to/from the

browser.

Building web-socket-js emulator:

cd include/web-socket-js/flash-src

mxmlc -static-link-runtime-shared-libraries WebSocketMain.as
