Re: PR_Close and PR_Shutdown hang if an SSL socket is blocking on Read

Oops, I forgot some details - we are using NSS-3.11.4 and NSPR-4.6.4 on a RedHat Linux with Kernel 2.4, using gcc 3.4.5. On Jul 10, 5:36 pm, Yahel Zamir <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I have encountered a problem in using SSL sockets in blocking mode. My > application

PR_Close and PR_Shutdown hang if an SSL socket is blocking on Read

PR_Shutdown or PR_Close never returns from SSL_LOCK_READER(ss). Following are a simple client and server that demonstrate the problem (search the client for 999 and the server for "delayed_close"). Thanks, Yahel Zamir, SW Engineer at CWNT === M_DIST = /usr/home/yahel/programs/nss/mo

Hi Everyone, I have noted an important limitation of OpenSSL, and I would like to make sure that this limitation does not exist with NSS. What I need is the ability to use one thread for writing to an SSL socket in blocking mode, and another thread for reading from the same socket, and let them r
