- \brief Describes how to use the WebSocket API for creating a simple echo client.
+ \brief Show how to write a simple WebSocket client application.
- The Echo Client Example shows how to use the WebSocket API to create a simple
- echo client.
+ The Echo Client shows how to use the \l {Qt WebSockets}{WebSocket}
+ API to send a message to a server and process whatever response the
+ server returns - in this case, simply reporting the response.
- \sa {Echo Server Example}
+ The client by default opens a WebSocket connection to a server listening
+ on local port 1234. When the connection attempt is successful, the client
+ will send a message to the server and print out whatever response the
+ server sends. The client then closes the connection.

+
+ For the sake of illustration, we use the \l {WebSocket Echo Server}, whose
+ reply is simply the message that was sent.
