Ah sorry been a while since I've done this kind of stuff. Try making an
initial call to BIO_do_accept() outside the main loop. The first call should
set up the accept BIO and the second one check for an incoming connection.
No worries! I appreciate any help. I've been banging my head against the wall for 5 days now and haven't made any progress, so I don't mind trying different things.


If that doesn't work I'll check some code I have which does use accept BIOs
and non-blocking I/O in a server application.
Note sure I follow what you mean here. I have two functions, openSSLSocket which sets up the socket, which basically does this:

        ret = BIO_new_accept(hostString);
        if (ret != NULL)
        {
            /* set the accept socket to non-blocking */
            BIO_set_nbio_accept(ret, 1);
/* set sockets created from this accept socket to non-blocking */
            BIO_set_nbio(ret, 1);
            BIO_set_bind_mode(ret, BIO_BIND_REUSEADDR);
            /* bind & listen */
            if (BIO_do_accept(ret) < 0)
... set error and return ret else just return ret ...

Then I have the startListening function which I outlined in my previous message. So I have a startup type function which does something like this (not the real code here):
    BIO* theBio = openSSLSocket(hostString);
    ... if no error ...
    startListening(theBio);

Is that not correct?

Thanks again
