Google Chrome and Grizzly Comet: does it works?

The buzz around Google Chrome attacked me...just to make sure Chrome supports Comet, I did try using the monster implementation to see if sockets in Chrome works with Grizzly Comet (and Java).

I've first downloaded Grizzly Comet OSGi bundle (buzzword invasion:-)) and the simple Flickr demo we are shipping. To launch the Comet demo, you just have to do:

java -jar grizzly-comet-webserver-1.8.5.jar -p 8080 -a grizzly-jmaki.war com.sun.grizzly.samples.comet.CometServlet
Running from: /tmp/grizzly-jmaki
Launching Servlet: com.sun.grizzly.samples.comet.CometServlet

If you want to really have fun, just follow what is described here...and install Grizzly on your iPhone. Just like that:

On the Google Chrome side, you get:

Nice to see Chrome works with Comet! And the same example works like a charm when deployed in GlassFish v3
