I've found a great example using javax.websocket
here:
http://www.programmingforliving.com/2013/08/jsr-356-java-api-for-websocket-client-api.html
Here the code based on the example linked above:
TestApp.java
:
package testapp;
import java.net.URI;
import java.net.URISyntaxException;
public class TestApp {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
// open websocket
final WebsocketClientEndpoint clientEndPoint = new WebsocketClientEndpoint(new URI("wss://real.okcoin.cn:10440/websocket/okcoinapi"));
// add listener
clientEndPoint.addMessageHandler(new WebsocketClientEndpoint.MessageHandler() {
public void handleMessage(String message) {
System.out.println(message);
}
});
// send message to websocket
clientEndPoint.sendMessage("{'event':'addChannel','channel':'ok_btccny_ticker'}");
// wait 5 seconds for messages from websocket
Thread.sleep(5000);
} catch (InterruptedException ex) {
System.err.println("InterruptedException exception: " + ex.getMessage());
} catch (URISyntaxException ex) {
System.err.println("URISyntaxException exception: " + ex.getMessage());
}
}
}
WebsocketClientEndpoint.java
:
package testapp;
import java.net.URI;
import javax.websocket.ClientEndpoint;
import javax.websocket.CloseReason;
import javax.websocket.ContainerProvider;
import javax.websocket.OnClose;
import javax.websocket.OnMessage;
import javax.websocket.OnOpen;
import javax.websocket.Session;
import javax.websocket.WebSocketContainer;

private MessageHandler messageHandler;
public WebsocketClientEndpoint(URI endpointURI) {
try {
WebSocketContainer container = ContainerProvider.getWebSocketContainer();
container.connectToServer(this, endpointURI);
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
}
