(PureBasic) SSL Server Example

Demonstrates how to create an SSL socket for accepting connections. This example is *very* simple in that it will create an SSL socket for accepting a single connection. It will read a message from the client, send a reply, and exit.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.

    ; If accepting an SSL/TLS connection, the SSL handshake is part of the connection
    ; establishment process. This involves a few back-and-forth messages between the 
    ; client and server to establish algorithms and a shared key to create the secure

    ; MaxReadIdleMs and MaxSendIdleMs properties. If these properties are set to 0 
    ; (and this is the default unless changed by your application), then the 
    ; AcceptNext can hang indefinitely during the SSL handshake process.
