'SocketEngine' does not conform to protocol 'WebSocketDelegate'

iOS

Unable to compile any of my apps as the Backendless swift package relies on GitHub - socketio/socket.io-client-swift and Type ‘SocketEngine’ does not conform to protocol ‘WebSocketDelegate’ in XCode Version 14.3.1 (14E300c)

The work around Solution was to make the SocketEngine.swift file editable and edit it in TextEdit and add the required Protocol, but this should be add to the SocketIO repository

public func didReceive(event: Starscream.WebSocketEvent, client: Starscream.WebSocketClient) {
    
}

Hello @Alan_Cook,

The issue was investigated and it comes from the Starscream library version.
It should be fixed on the Socket.IO side not on the Backendless one.
The corresponding pull request already exist.

More discussions can be found here: starscream version (4.0.6) · Issue #1450 · socketio/socket.io-client-swift · GitHub

Hello @Alan_Cook,

It seems Socket.IO fixed this issue in their latest update, I cannot reproduce it anymore.
Could you please check if it works for you with the latest version of Swift-SDK (7.0.1)?

Hello Olha. I’m afraid that the issue is not resolved yet. I have the same error and the CocoaMqtt package, installed Starscream version 4.0.8
