BIO socket summary

Undoubtedly socket BIO is a splendid socket interface implemented in C language, to some extent it have Object Oriented Programming thinking in C language, and provides more OS compatibility.

 

Well, how to say, in my opinion it have some private feature.

1, The BIO socket is introduced for the SSL protocol, so it encapsulates all the TCP functions, doesn’t support UDP protocol.

2, The OPEN SSL stems form Linux, don’t have a Message based architecture, so it mainly base on blocking functions.

3, the status mechanism can be used in other status transfer situation.

4, it mainly provide lower level interface for SSL.
