How can I use Boost.Asio with SSL in C++?

You can use Boost.Asio's SSL support by including the necessary headers and linking against OpenSSL. Do you need a code example?

Yes, please provide a simple example.

Here's a basic example:

#include <boost/asio.hpp>
#include <boost/asio/ssl.hpp>

using boost::asio::ip::tcp;

int main() {
    boost::asio::io_context io_context;
    boost::asio::ssl::context ssl_context(boost::asio::ssl::context::sslv23);
    ssl_context.set_options(boost::asio::ssl::context::default_workarounds);

    // Create a SSL socket
    boost::asio::ssl::stream<tcp::socket> ssl_socket(io_context, ssl_context);
    // Further implementation...
}

This sets up a basic SSL socket. Would you like to know more about handling connections?

Yes, how do I handle connections with this setup?

To handle connections, you would typically use async_connect for asynchronous operations. You can set up handlers for read and write operations as well. Would you like a detailed example?
