[jira] [Commented] (THRIFT-1683) Implement alternatives to
Javascript Client side Transport protocol, just as NPAPI and WebSocket.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1683?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13443510#comment-13443510 ]
Henrique Mendonca commented on THRIFT-1683:
-------------------------------------------
Thanks Richard,
as already discussed per mail, I was thinking to implement this using socket.io which would probably facilitate the cross-language implementation for the server side and offer some extra features for the client: [https://github.com/learnboost/socket.io/wiki/] but yeah it's totally your call.
I won't have much time but I can try to give you a hand if you need, so keep in touch!
ps.: as for NPAPI we could add a separated ticket for that, what do you think?

> The current Thrift.js Transport mechanism is only via AJAX. This should support the ability to choose the type as AJAX or WebSocket. An additional mechanism, which may make sense is a native call as well, through NPAPI or JSExtensions. This makes it useful for Embedded devices, which implement these methods.
