connection, send, receive with HTTPS

Hi,

I was looking for the code flow for HTTPS communication, and from the
internal design document, it seems HTTP and HTTPS are handled similarly,
with 2 differences,

1) connect() is done differently
2) read, write are differently

But when i parsed the code, it seems Curl_read() and Curl_write() are used
and I am not sure where is SSL authentication done before sending the data
to remote host.

also, I was looking for the code flow for HTTPS connect.

please let me know the inputs.
