This blog has published a few blogs on using JSR 356 Reference
Implementation (Tyrus) integrated in GlassFish 4
promoted builds.

#184: Logging WebSocket Frames using Chrome Developer
Tools, Net-internals and Wireshark

ArrayBufferView) Payload in WebSocket

GlassFish 4
The earlier blogs created a WebSocket endpoint as:
import javax.net.websocket.annotations.WebSocketEndpoint;@WebSocketEndpoint("websocket")public class MyEndpoint { . . .
Based upon the discussion
in JSR 356 EG, the package names have changed to javax.websocket.*.
So the updated endpoint definition will look like:
import javax.websocket.WebSocketEndpoint;@WebSocketEndpoint("websocket")public class MyEndpoint { . . .
The POM dependency is:
<dependency> <groupId>javax.websocket</groupId> <artifactId>javax.websocket-api</artifactId> <version>1.0-b09</version> </dependency>
And if you are using GlassFish
4 build 66, then you also need to provide a dummy
EndpointFactory implementation as:
import javax.websocket.WebSocketEndpoint;@WebSocketEndpoint(value="websocket", factory=MyEndpoint.DummyEndpointFactory.class)public class MyEndpoint { . . .
class DummyEndpointFactory implements EndpointFactory { @Override public Object createEndpoint() { return null; } }}
This is only interim and will be cleaned up in subsequent builds.
But I've seen couple of complaints about this already and so this
deserves a short blog.
Have you been tracking the latest Java EE 7 implementations in GlassFish
4 promoted builds ?
