It's in the documentation :-) In part I wanted something easy to use, lightweight which didn't require users to jump through odd hoops to use. A number of socket library require you to re-implement the class to handle data reception - this is an ugly solution, IMHO, so I have written something else. I looked up the ACE library just now. Before doing this development, I searched online for such libraries didn't come across ACE until you mentioned it by name. I took a look at it, but from my _brief_ look at the sample tutorials available it seems to require class reimplementation and callback to get stuff to work. Look forward to your comments. - Garrett Kajmowicz ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
