Hello, first of all thank you very much for your plugin, it’s been very useful to me
Similarly to DIVYA ADITYA, I needed to use this plugin for another platform (Android), and I was trying to recompile your source code for using it as an Android library (I was going to make you a pull request once I had it all builted and tested, if you might be interested ). However, I am having several issues even to compile your code and its dependencies. VS2015 for UE4 does’t seem to like websocketpp and boost as dependencies. Did you have to do some particular trick, in order to compile your library with those dependencies?

Yeah the original library source is at GitHub - socketio/socket.io-client-cpp: C++11 implementation of Socket.IO client. If I remember right I had to download boost 1.6 and compile it and then grab Network Graph · zaphoyd/websocketpp · GitHub one of the forks in websocketpp that solved some of the compile issues there. Instead of just adding the prebuilt libraries in the repo, maybe I should find the old source for building those libraries for vs2015, I’ll dig around!

If you do get a successful android build, by all means make pull requests! This is a community plugin, not something exclusive.
