Non-blocking SSL server using Thrift

["CHEN, Ruichuan (Ruichuan)" <ru...@alcatel-lucent.com>]

Thrift provides several different non-blocking server modes, like TNonblockingServer,THsHaServer, and TThreadedSelectorServer. But, I'd like to enable SSL on the server. It seems SSL only works on blocking servers in Thrift.



Anyone has any clues of a non-blocking SSL server in Thrift? Java example would be highly appreciated.

I know that the non-blocking server in C++ is incompatible with wrapping arbitrary (or maybe any) transports.  I am working on a Sasl transport and it will take big changes to make it work with the non-blocking server in C++.  This is because the server implements it's own transport internally.  The Java code appears to be more layered but I suspect it has similar problems..

This is pretty easy to build using a Netty-based Thrift server [1].
Enabling SSL is then mostly a matter of adding an SSLHandler to your
pipeline [2].
