.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Instances of the \fIHTTP::Daemon::SSL\fR class are \s-1HTTP/1\s0.1 servers that
listen on a socket for incoming requests. The \fIHTTP::Daemon::SSL\fR is a
sub-class of \fIIO::Socket::SSL\fR, so you can perform socket operations
directly on it too.
.PP
The \fIaccept()\fR method will return when a connection from a client is
available. In a scalar context the returned value will be a reference
to a object of the \fIHTTP::Daemon::ClientConn::SSL\fR class which is another
\&\fIIO::Socket::SSL\fR subclass. In a list context a two-element array
is returned containing the new \fIHTTP::Daemon::ClientConn::SSL\fR reference
and the peer address; the list will be empty upon failure. (Note that version
1.02 erroneously did not honour list context). Calling
the \fIget_request()\fR method on the \fIHTTP::Daemon::ClientConn::SSL\fR object
will read data from the client and return an \fIHTTP::Request\fR object
reference.
.PP
This \s-1HTTPS\s0 daemon does not \fIfork\fR\|(2) for you. Your application, i.e. the
user of the \fIHTTP::Daemon::SSL\fR is reponsible for forking if that is
desirable. Also note that the user is responsible for generating
responses that conform to the \s-1HTTP/1\s0.1 protocol. The
\&\fIHTTP::Daemon::ClientConn\fR class provides some methods that make this easier.
.SH "METHODS"
.IX Header "METHODS"
The following methods are the only differences from the \fIHTTP::Daemon\fR base class:
.IP "$d = new HTTP::Daemon::SSL" 4
.IX Item "$d = new HTTP::Daemon::SSL"
The constructor takes the same parameters as the
\&\fIIO::Socket::SSL\fR constructor. It can also be called without specifying
any parameters, but you will have to make sure that you have an \s-1SSL\s0 certificate
and key for the server in \fIcerts/server\-cert.pem\fR and \fIcerts/server\-key.pem\fR.
See the IO::Socket::SSL documentation for how to change these default locations
and specify many other aspects of \s-1SSL\s0 behavior. The daemon will then set up a
listen queue of 5 connections and allocate some random port number. A server
that wants to bind to some specific address on the standard \s-1HTTPS\s0 port will be
constructed like this:
.Sp
.Vb 3
\& $d = new HTTP::Daemon::SSL
\& LocalAddr => 'www.someplace.com',
\& LocalPort => 443;
