Hi,
you don't need the SysLibLoad function cause it's a part of PalmOS. I think
this Function is for custom libs. If you want to communicate over a SSL
socket you also need the NetLib. I 've done somethink like this:
________________________________________________________________________
err = SysLibFind ("Net.lib", &AppNetRefnum);
if (!err )
{
/* If the library is not loaded, load the library*/
error = NetLibOpen (AppNetRefnum, &ifErr);
if (!error)
{
outputTextHandle=AppendStringToHandle("Net.lib opened
successfully\n",outputTextHandle);
/* the outputTextHandle function just generates an output an the
screen. */
}
else if (error == netErrAlreadyOpen)
{
outputTextHandle=AppendStringToHandle("Net.lib already
open\n",outputTextHandle);
}
else
{
outputTextHandle=AppendStringToHandle("Error opening
Net.lib\n",outputTextHandle);
}
}
else
{
outputTextHandle=AppendStringToHandle("Net.lib not found !!
\n",outputTextHandle);
}
if(g_prefs.enableSsl)
{
err = SysLibFind (kSslDBName, &SslLibRefnum);
if (err )
{
err=SysLibLoad (kSslLibType,kSslLibCreator,&SslLibRefnum);
}
if(!err)
{
/* If the library is not loaded, load the library*/
error = SslLibOpen (SslLibRefnum);
if (error == errNone)
{
outputTextHandle=AppendStringToHandle("SSL Lib opened
successfully\n",outputTextHandle);
}
/* else if (error == netErrAlreadyOpen)
{
outputTextHandle=AppendStringToHandle("SSL Lib already
open\n",outputTextHandle);
}
*/ else
{
outputTextHandle=AppendStringToHandle("Error opening ssl
lib\n",outputTextHandle);
}
}
else
{
outputTextHandle=AppendStringToHandle("SSL lib not found !!
\n",outputTextHandle);
}
SslLibCreate (SslLibRefnum,&contextTemplate);
SslContextCreate(SslLibRefnum,contextTemplate,&context);
_____________________________________________________________________
then you need to create a NetLib socket and add it to the ssl context with
SslContextSet_Socket(SslLibRefnum,context,netLibSocket). And finaly you can
send data over the socket with bytesSent=SslWrite(SslLibRefnum, context,
dataBuffer, bytesToSend,&error) or read data with
bytesRead=SslWrite(SslLibRefnum, context, dataBuffer, bytesToRead,&error).
I hope this summary of my code helps you.
Best regards Philippe.
