BIO_flush() wont flush!
Rodrigo Madera
I just joined in on this list. Specifically because I am having a bit of trouble using OpenSSL.
So here I go and thanks in advance for any help resulting because of this message.
I am programming an Internet daemon that is using SSL for the connections. Basically, I can reduce
my problem to only one statement: My daemon doesnt send the data I send with BIO_puts() untill the
whole output buffer is full (I believe it to be around 1024). I would need it to send it instantly.
Also, BIO_flush() just doesnt work either...
I am really out of clues on this one... if anybody needs code Ill be happy to post it.
Also, I have tried the SSL++ class found in http://www.total-knowledge.com/progs/sslpp/ which looks like a
nice try to wrap the SSL engine. I havent had any luck with it. It looks abandoned (last update was more
than a year ago) and is still in pre-alfa or something like that. The CSSLServer object connects the first
client okay but when the client exits (with a Ctrl-C in the client) the server goes crazy and just displays
getservbyname() failed around the screen (along with the text "system library") telling it failed. The
only way to stop it was Ctrl-C, this time on the server...
Well, hope I didnt mess ideas up in this post. As I said, its my first post on this list so please
take it easy with me. I dont know SSL but I am fluent in C and C++.
I just found out how to create my certificate and key =o)
Thanking in advance,
Rodrigo

Hmmm... When I need the stuff I just wrote with BIO_puts() to go
immediately, I follow the BIO_puts() with a BIO_flush(). It works
for me on Linux and Solaris.
Are you checking all of the return codes? Perhaps if you posted
enough of your code to show what you're doing, someone will have a
suggestion?

Where do I find a SSL Terminal program to test? Like a simple
client or so. I am now trying to build one but maybe I get up
with errors in it that could be spared using a ready-made-and-
tested one.
Regards,
Rodrigo

It worked!! The client I was using to test is broken!!
Thanks to all you folks. Specially Paul Allen (nice
computer industry name, huh? =o)
Thank you,
Rodrigo
