It's all about what you want to do, for example I use libssl to read and write data from encrypted files... for that case BIO is excellent because it let me write and read from the encrypted file getting plain text from each read, and encrypted text for each write
this can also be used with sockets... so it's all about what you are trying to do... good luck On Mon 27 Mar 2006 07:20, vipin rathor wrote: > hi people, > can someone tell me that what is the difference between using BIO and > non-BIO calls??? and also, what r the situations that justifies the usage > of these calls??? > > Thanks in advance, > > > > > "Most people are only alive because it is illegal to > shoot them." > > - rathor vipin > > > --------------------------------- > New Yahoo!
