No non-blocking IO for SSL in Ruby 1.8.7 #6

Closed iande closed 13 years ago

iande commented 13 years ago

Ruby 1.8.7 does not have native support for non-blocking IO over SSL connections. There is a gem that monkey patches support, but it is a C extension, and not suitable for use with JRuby.

This was a huge over-sight on my part, and I only caught it due to the full-stack tests. As soon as a stable version of JRuby exists that provides 1.9.2 functionality, I think I'm going to drop all Ruby 1.8 support from this gem.

On the plus side, the use of IO.select should still work with OpenSSL connections. So, I may be able to patch SSL sockets with blocking read/write methods and be okay, so long as IO.select doesn't lie to us.
