I see, so if I disable PARTIAL_WRITES, will that mean that it will return values as I wrote up there? Otherwise I fail to see the difference between allowin partial writes and not. Furthermore, that would mean that I should actually call SSL_write with new arguments on the same packet. SSL_write(ssl, buffer + written, len - written); or am I being retarded here ?
