RE: httpapi https_connect() problem

Hi Scott,

I will download 1.10 & test as you suggest. I had hoped to fix the problem
under 1.9 because its been very stable, but understand the need to move on.
May take some time because the AS/400 which is causing the problem is in
Amsterdam (probably powered by a Windmill).

Please upgrade to the current version of httpapi.  In that version, the
procedure will be called CommSSL_Connect().

This might be fixed in 1.10, since I re-wrote almost all of the networking
stuff.

If it is not fixed in 1.10, you might try leaving the socket in blocking
mode to see if that helps.

Using blocking mode will prevent HTTPAPI from being able to check for
sockets timing out, so you could potentially get stuck "forever" if you
disable non-blocking.  But, it might at least narrow down the problem.
