Title: Using SSL
Post by: EiTkoCaT on November 11, 2010, 09:50:08 pm

Hey,

I'd like to add a SSL secure to the connections. Is it possible? If yes, how to? I'm using UDP and TCP, don't thing there needs to be other detail :)

Thanks!

I have no idea. I think you'd better start documenting yourself about what SLL adds on top of sockets, and then we can see if it's possible to do with SFML sockets.

SSL can't work with UDP (for communication reasons). And I think it's all about hardware implementation (but you have to check this).

From what I've heard SSL connection are managed with some special socket. So using SFML sockets may not be possible.
