Hello,
I am trying to connect to an external REST-based cloud service. For the parts where my ABAP application is the active part, I've used the conventional IF_HTTP_* technique, and so far it works. However, I'm having a little trouble attaching to a publish/subscribe event notification mechanism that is provided by the cloud service. This particular service uses Server-Sent Events, which are very different from WebSockets - essentially a kind of never-ending HTTP connection. As far as I can see, it's not currently possible to attach to Server-Sent Events in the same way that WebSockets are supported natively. Which alternatives would you suggest?
(I don't have any influence on the external service, so changing that part is not an option.)
Thanks
Volker
