Project:

Jakarta WebSocket

Proposal:

Eclipse Project for WebSocket

Parent Project:

Eclipse EE4J

Background:

This project is created as part of the process of transitioning Oracle Java EE 8 and GlassFish technologies to the Eclipse Foundation as described in The Eclipse Enterprise for Java Project Top Level Project Charter (https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j/charter).

Scope:

Eclipse Project for WebSocket provides the API and TCK for Java API for WebSocket, starting from the specification defined by JSR-356.

An implementation for the WebSocket API is part of the Eclipse Tyrus project proposal.

Description:

Java API for WebSocket (JSR-356), specifies the API that Java developers can use when they want to integrate WebSockets into their applications - both on the server side as well as on the Java client side.

Why Here?:

The top level EE4J project was created consistent with the direction described in The Eclipse Enterprise for Java Project Top Level Project Charter (https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j/charter). This project is created under the top level EE4J project as one of Oracle Java EE 8 and GlassFish technologies being transitioned to the Eclipse Foundation.
