This example shows how to establish a WebSocket connection through a SOCKS proxy.

#  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
#  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

#  --------------------------------------------------
#  This example borrows the code from the REST using SOCKS Proxy example.
#  We first use the Chilkat Socket object to establish a connection to the WebSocket server through a SOCKS proxy.
#  Next, the Rest object uses the Socket object for its connection.
#  Finally, the WebSocket object uses the Rest object for its connection.
# 

rest = Chilkat::CkRest.new()
socket = Chilkat::CkSocket.new()

#  Set the SOCKS proxy domain or IP address, port, and SOCKS version number (4 or 5)
socket.put_SocksHostname("192.168.1.79")
socket.put_HttpProxyPort(1080)
socket.put_SocksVersion(5)

#  Provide authentication to the SOCKS proxy, if needed.
socket.put_SocksUsername("SOCKS_PROXY_LOGIN")
socket.put_SocksPassword("SOCKS_PROXY_PASSWORD")

#  Connect to the websocket server through the HTTP proxy.
bTls = false
port = 80
maxWaitMs = 5000
success = socket.Connect("some-websocket-server.com",port,bTls,maxWaitMs)
if (success != true)
    print "Connect Failure Error Code: " + socket.get_ConnectFailReason().to_s() + "\n";
    print socket.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

#  Tell the Rest object to use the connected socket.
success = rest.UseConnection(socket,true)
if (success != true)
    print rest.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

ws = Chilkat::CkWebSocket.new()

#  Tell the WebSocket to use this connection.
success = ws.UseConnection(rest)
if (success != true)
    print ws.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

#  Add the standard WebSocket open handshake headers that will be needed.
#  (This adds the required HTTP request headers to the rest object.)
ws.AddClientHeaders()

#  Add any additional headers that might be desired.
#  Two common WebSocketSpecific headers are "Sec-WebSocket-Protocol" and "Origin".
rest.AddHeader("Sec-WebSocket-Protocol","x-some-websocket-subprotocol")
rest.AddHeader("Origin","http://some-websocket-server.com")

#  Do the open handshake.
responseBody = rest.fullRequestNoBody("GET","/something")
if (rest.get_LastMethodSuccess() != true)
    print rest.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

#  If successful, the HTTP response status code should be 101,
#  and the response body will be empty. (If it failed, we'll have a look
#  at the response body..)
statusCode = rest.get_ResponseStatusCode()
print "Response status code: " + statusCode.to_s() + "\n";

if (statusCode != 101)
    print responseBody + "\n";
    print "-- Failed because of unexpected response status code." + "\n";
    exit
end

#  We have the expected 101 response, so let's now validate the
#  contents of the response, such as the value sent by the server in the
#  Sec-WebSocket-Accept header.
success = ws.ValidateServerHandshake()
if (success != true)
    print ws.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

print "WebSocket connection successful." + "\n";

#  The application may now begin sending and receiving frames on the WebSocket connection.
#  (At this point, we're done with the rest and socket objects...)

print "Success." + "\n";
