What

The bridge connector can be handed its socket constructor, and teardown no longer leaves non-open sockets to terminate().

Details
  • Uses a caller-supplied createWebSocket when present, otherwise constructs the ws client itself.
  • On teardown it detaches listeners and then always calls close(), rather than terminating sockets that are not in the OPEN state.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
