Re: SSL is RPG programs

My open-source HTTP service program (HTTPAPI) uses SSL sockets, and since
it's open source you can read the code and learn from it.

I used the Global Secure Toolkit ("GSKIT") for SSL.  Primarily, you'll be
interested in the routines that call APIs that begin with "gsk_" and in the
GSKSSL_H /copy member.

The IBM documentation for SSL (including GSKit) is in the Information
Center, under "UNIX-Type APIs / Secure Sockets APIs."  (As always this
information is aimed at C programmers, despite the fact that most iSeries
programmers aren't C programmers.)  Here's a link:

Someday I'll get around to writing some documentation aimed at RPG
people, but I haven't yet...
