That works on an accept BIO and sets the accept socket to non-blocking mode. The macro BIO_set_nbio() sets BIOs to non-blocking mode in general. However note that this only takes place during initialization so if you make the call after the BIO has been used (e.g. connected or I/O performed) it wont work. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
