Dear @AgaveJoe ,

Thank you very much for your help.

You mean Sec-WebSocket-Accept header??? The ClientWebSocket class does not expose the header value. See the source code on GitHub. I'm sure you can modify the client a bit to expose the value

yes. It is Sec-WebSocket-Accept header. I am not sure how i can modify the client, can you give some snippet of code.

See the proxy option in ClientWebSocket class docs.

Thank you very much.

A network sniffer like Wireshark. Over modify the ClientWebSocket similar to question 1.

I mean If the socket server returns 401 or other status code how I can access the response headers from client side?

Also, how ClientWebSocket can receive pong message ?

Thanks for your help.

Kumar
