[Google App Engine][iOS]ver1.7.7からPushNotificationがサポートに

ずーっと、Add Support for Apple Push Notification Serviceのスレッドを見ながら、いつだろ、いつだろと期待しておりました。

で、先日の下の情報

Outbound sockets moved to Preview
Outbound sockets is now in preview in this release for Java and Python. With outbound sockets, billing-enabled App Engine applications can now make outbound connections with TCP or UDP sockets. This allows developers to build applications that weren’t previously possible on App Engine, such as IMAP or DNS clients.

In the Python runtime, we’ve added support for the Python SSL Library, so you can now open secure connections to remote services such as Apple’s Push Notification service. Similarly, Java developers can now use the javax.net.ssl package to make outbound SSL connections.

というわけで、スレッドで問い合わせたら公式にgoogleの方から連絡があり、「サポートされました」とのこと。

やりましたー。これで今、リリースしているiOSアプリにPush Notificationを実装することができるぞと。

ちなみに、そのときのやりとりを下に掲載。

1.7.7 supports sockets and SSL with client certificates in Python/Java/Go, so this is now possible.
