Hi,

Just a question about thread safety:

Your FAQ states that OpenSSL is thread-safe with limititations: (... an SSL
connection may not concurrently be used by multiple threads).

Does this mean you cannot have one thread reading from the ssl session while
another thread is writing to the ssl session???

Or do you mean that you cannot have more than one thread reading from the
same session?

TIA,

Sean.
