As you already know, it returns a value that indicates that the request failed.

So... when you get them, you can call the routine again to try again...     Not sure what you're looking for that you don't already know?

I have a program that calls HTTPAPI (yes, I know, I seem to have a lot of them), and a few minutes ago, it crashed while trying to parse an empty reply buffer, with (and I should have saved the /tmp/httpapi_debug.txt) something about an SSL handshake timeout as the last debug message.

The last HTTPAPI call was an "http_persist_req" with an opcode of "PUT." The return code came back as 1, but the program got an empty reply buffer.

I suspect that another program on another customer box, that recently crashed with a return code of 1 but an empty reply buffer, suffered the same fate, but the debug file had already been overwritten before anybody told me there was a problem.

Is there a way for the calling program to detect SSL handshake failures, so it can recover from them?
