Client disconnected errors with sample code

[twinone]

Testing the following sample code:

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <WebSocketsClient.h>

WebSocketsClient webSocket;

void webSocketEvent(WStype_t type, uint8_t* payload, size_t length) {
    switch (type) {
        case WStype_DISCONNECTED:
            Serial.printf("[WSc] Disconnected!\n");
            break;
        case WStype_CONNECTED:
            Serial.printf("[WSc] Connected to URL: %s\n", payload);
            webSocket.sendTXT("Connected\r\n");
            break;
        case WStype_TEXT:
            Serial.printf("[WSc] get text: %s\n", payload);
            break;
        case WStype_BIN:
            Serial.printf("[WSc] get binary length: %u\n", length);
            break;
    }
}

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(9600);
    WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
    WiFi.begin("SSID", "PASS");

    webSocket.beginSSL("echo.websocket.org", 443, "/");
    webSocket.onEvent(webSocketEvent);
}

void loop() {
    delay(500);
    webSocket.loop();
}

Is failing with the following error:

[WSc] Disconnected!
[WSc] Disconnected!

Using PlatformIO & WEMOS D1 mini (ESP8266).

This library has always worked, is there any recent changes that might cause this behavior? I'm not even able to connect to echo.websocket.org.

Thanks for the help!

Using the non SSL port 80, with .begin() instead of .beginSSL() works correctly. Maybe this is not an issue related to this library.

very likely the ESP SSL API had some changes.
you can try this branch here:
https://github.com/Links2004/arduinoWebSockets/tree/gpn19
which has some commits with a possible fix in it.
