websocket client in java?

[tomjohnson3]

hi,

i'm trying to figure out if there's a websocket *client* implementation that
uses netty.

i've seen the websocket server-side code/example. (awesome!) ...but i'm not
so much interested in using the websocket protocol to communicate with an
app running in a browser as i am in having a pure java client/server
connection using the protocol. i plan to use it to make bidirectional socket
connection that can pass through firewalls easily (since HTTP/80 is commonly
open), without having to open special ports, etc.

if there isn't existing code that i could use, i'll try to whip up something
myself.

i'm new to netty (also, awesome!) - and, from my quick scan, it seems that
the WebSocketFrameEncoder/Decoder would be a good place to start.

any advice would be appreciated. (any others interested in this? i'd think
it'd be a great addition to the library...)

thanks, tom
