Can you point to usable example or provide hint how to do it? There is an example of how to use direct-tcpip channels with libssh2 in example/direct-tcpip.c which you may have seen. > I guess channel init should be in blocking mode and > data transfer should be in non-blocking mode. Yes. Daniel Stenberg wrote: >> I guess channel init should be in blocking mode > > You never _need_ to use blocking mode, but you can most often opt > to use it. Whenever more than a single libssh2 channel is open it is absolutely neccessary to use *non-blocking* mode, to have working communication. This is also demonstrated in example/direct-tcpip.c and I know that it is a really ugly construct but it is the only option until the libssh2 API gets extended a bit. We've been talking about this for a while. >> data transfer should be in non-blocking mode. > > Yes, mostly due to the fact that you currently can't really figure out > which channel that has traffic when you know there's something to read > from the socket so you need to check them all and then you don't want > to block on any.
