WebSync 3.1 Released!

Hey everyone!

It's that time again - time to check out the latest version of WebSync! In 3.1, we've got a bunch of new stuff, and a number of other fixes too:

• General
  • Full support for the .NET Compact Framework, version 2.0+ (woohoo!)
  • Updated the core serialization so it can handle incorrect but salvageable JSON inputs
  • Updated examples so that the serialized data is the same between the .NET and JavaScript examples
  • Updated the StatelessProvider API to take a ClientRecord parameter for ConnectClient method implementations for future compatibility

• Server
  • Added a new static method for deserializing incoming message and publications directly from a raw HTTP request (so you can pre-process them if you need)
  • Added a few minor performance improvements

• Clients
  • [.NET] Added a new "OnRequestCreated" event for the .NET client and publisher to allow full control of the web request before it's delivered
  • [.NET] Fixed a bug in the .NET client where the subscription reference would get held after the channel was unsubscribed
  • [JavaScript] Added handling for complete network failures (such as pulling the computer's network jack) to the JavaScript client
  • [All] Fixed a bug in the server that allowed a client that had been disconnected to publish
  • [All] Fixed a bug in the .NET and JavaScript clients with mult-channel subscriptions

As a random side note, the JavaScript client is now very determined to stay connected; we tried just about everything to prevent it from staying online, and it always jumped right back in...
