Subject: Multi-threaded SSL Socket Usage
Hi Everyone,
I hope I have found the right place to ask for some advice.
An application we have developed is responsible for handling concurrent
connections from multiple SSL Sockets
// Receiving WANT_READ during an SSL_write
bool writeSuccess = false;
while (!writeSuccess) {
ret = SSL_write(...)
if (ssl_Error(ret) == SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE) {
// Wants a write, just re-try the operation.
Continue;
}
Why are you retrying

The design of the application is that there are worker threads which
pick up data and send them out via the sockets. This works for the most
part, however as mentioned it will sometimes no longer appear to work

Thanks for your response David, Rodney.
I understand (clearer now) the requirement that:
* If SSL_read reports WANT_WRITE; we need to issue an immediate SSL_write
However; what do I actually write? Do I write a blank/empty string
(SSL_write(ssl, , 0)?) - I may not have anything to write.
