Hi,

If a client app connects to a server through WebSocket API, and server
sends a close frame, how is the client app notified? Does the client
stack automatically respond with a close frame, then raise a "close"
event?

Meanwhile, if the client app is invoking send() while the server close
frame arrives, what happens? The paragraph about "bufferedAmount"
implies that send() won't fail, is that correct?

Thanks,
Zhong Yu
