> At the moment TSSLSocket.cpp hard-codes the SSL/TLS protocol to TLSv1.0, which does not allow any other protocols to be used instead (SSL v3, TLS v1.0, v1.1, v1.2, *ignores SSLv2 as horribly insecure*).
> Could a method be provided on the TSSLSocketFactory to set the required protocol (like how there is already a cipher() function available), so that when SSL_CTX_new, it is called with the specified SSL/TLS protocol.
> Sorry to label this as a bug, but being unable to select the highest availabe security protocol for communication is a bug in my eyes.
