Check out the new article: Websockets for MetaTrader 5: Asynchronous client connections with the Windows API.
This article details the development of a custom dynamically linked library designed to facilitate asynchronous websocket client connections for MetaTrader programs.
The article, "WebSockets for MetaTrader 5: Using the Windows API", illustrated the utilization of the Windows API for the implementation of a websocket client within MetaTrader 5 applications. The implementation presented there was constrained by its synchronous operational mode.
In this article, we revisit the application of the Windows API to construct a websocket client for MetaTrader 5 programs, with the objective of achieving asynchronous client functionality. A practical methodology for realizing this objective involves the creation of a custom dynamically linked library (DLL) that exports functions suitable for integration with MetaTrader 5 applications.
Accordingly, this article will discuss the development process of the DLL and subsequently present a demonstration of its application through an MetaTrader 5 program example.
