Google App Engine Channel API with iOS Basic

Unity Engine
1

Has anyone had any experience with GAE’s Channel API? It looks great for simple network games. It seems that clients send info to the server via POST, and they are notified via open channels using sockets.

Would it be possible to implement that in iOS Basic? I know that www would handle POSTs, I’ve done that before. But what about sockets? Could I use System.Net.Sockets in iOS Basic?

I’m trying to do something similar too, do u got any good results ?!

No, system.Net.Sockets is not available in iOS basic, requires pro

You would have to write a plugin.
