In the websocket example (on this page) it states that:

In this sample, the infinite loop is only exited with an exception is risen: either a ClosedReceiveChannelException or another exception.

but when I do a test with postman and hit “disconnect” on the postman side, no exception is thrown in ktor: instead the for (frame in incoming) loop just exits. Is this also a possible “close” behavior?

You will need to send a closing message from the client. Then the server, when it receives that message, should actively close the session.

Ok, maybe postman isn’t doing that on its disconnect.
