It is also handling timeout and sending timeout close frame `fun CoroutineScope.pinger( outgoing: SendChannel<Frame>, periodMillis: Long, timeoutMillis: Long, pool: ObjectPool<ByteBuffer> = KtorDefaultPool ): SendChannel<Pong>` Launch pinger coroutine on CoroutineScope that is sending ping every specified periodMillis to outgoing channel, waiting for and verifying client’s pong frames. It is also handling timeoutMillis and sending timeout close frame
pinger	`fun CoroutineScope.pinger( outgoing: SendChannel<Frame>, period: <ERROR CLASS>, timeout: <ERROR CLASS>, pool: ObjectPool<ByteBuffer> = KtorDefaultPool ): SendChannel<Pong>` Launch pinger coroutine on CoroutineScope that is sending ping every specified period to outgoing channel, waiting for and verifying client’s pong frames. It is also handling timeout and sending timeout close frame
ponger	`fun CoroutineScope.ponger( outgoing: SendChannel<Pong>, pool: ObjectPool<ByteBuffer> = KtorDefaultPool ): SendChannel<Ping>` Launch a ponger actor job on the CoroutineScope sending pongs to outgoing channel. It is acting for every client’s ping frame and replying with corresponding pong
reader	`fun CoroutineScope.reader( coroutineContext: <ERROR CLASS> = EmptyCoroutineContext, channel: ByteChannel, block: suspend ReaderScope.() -> Unit ): ReaderJob` `fun CoroutineScope.reader( coroutineContext: <ERROR CLASS> = EmptyCoroutineContext, autoFlush: Boolean = false, block: suspend ReaderScope.() -> Unit ): ReaderJob`
