This exception indicates that the connection is not yet established. Due to that reason you are not allowed to send any message to the other endpoint. You can do one of two things to avoid this exception:
- Check, if the connection is open and ready to send messages with
isOpen() - Use the blocking method
connectBlocking(), which is blocking till a connection is established (or an error occurred)
You can add additional headers (like Origin or Cookie) to your handshake, please check out this example here.
You can add additional headers (like Access-Control-Allow-Origin) to your handshake, please check out this example here.
When onOpen is called, the complete handshake received from the server is included in the ServerHandshake argument.
public void onOpen( ServerHandshake handshake ) {
if (!handshake.hasFieldValue( "Server" )) {
return;
}
String server = handshake.getFieldValue( "Server" );
}When onOpen is called, the complete handshake received from the client is included in the ClientHandshake argument.
public void onOpen( WebSocket conn, ClientHandshake handshake ) {
if (!handshake.hasFieldValue( "Cookie" )) {
return;
}
String cookie = handshake.getFieldValue( "Cookie" );
}
