[Python-Dev] ssl module integration with asyncore (original) (raw)

Hi there, since ssl module is still in development I thought it would have been better asking such question here instead of on comp.lang.python. I'm interested in using the ssl module with asyncore but since there's no real documentation about it yet I've been not able to write something useful with it.

http://docs.python.org/dev/library/ssl.html -- it's not quite up-to-date, but close.

Currently I'm trying to add the SSL support to an asyncore-based FTP server I wrote. I tried to write some code by watching the ssl-related test-suite scripts with no luck since there are no available tests for asyncore available.

Take a look at the SSL 1.12 test suite -- there's an asyncore-based server in there.

I tried to play with the wrapsocket() function a little bit but different type of errors are raised every time. I'm sure this happens because I'm not doing things in the right way. Could someone please show me an example code about how the ssl module could be integrated with asyncore?

Hope that helps.

Bill
