Hello
I would like to know what part of the an easy set operation that occurs in a
thread
which involves libcurl accessing an SSL url needs a mutex.
Is there any code out there that actually shows a
CRYPTO_set_locking_callback & CRYPTO_set_id_callback
specifically in relation to the use with curl_easy_setopt code.
It's understandable to not provide a specific thread safe mechanism given
the choice of ssl options,
but not having anything short of a slung together example that does not
really address the cause of the problem does not fly.
Again and please; How do I specifically avoid crashes when using libcurl
built with OpenSSL to access an HTTPS page using multiple threads.
Thank you,
john
