Answer 1

You could alternatively create an additional python local server for bridging the data between your C++ application and webpage.

The html5 webpage connects to a local port that allows a web socket connection (use Flask/tornado).

The C++ application connects to a UDP listener on a different port. See https://wiki.python.org/moin/UdpCommunication to setup.

The python server basically forms a transparent data bridge between UDP port to websocket connection .
