Looking for a High Level C++ SSL Library [closed]

Answer 1

Boost.Asio provides SSL capabilities by wrappering OpenSSL. The examples are fairly straightforward, for client-code it looks something like this

ssl::context ctx(my_io_service, ssl::context::sslv23);
ctx.set_verify_mode(ssl::context::verify_peer);
ctx.load_verify_file("ca.pem");

ssl::stream ssl_sock(my_io_service, ctx);
ip::tcp::socket::lowest_layer_type& sock = ssl_sock.lowest_layer();
sock.connect(my_endpoint);
sock.handshake();
sock.write(...);

note there are asynchronous methods async_connect and async_handshake and async_write too.
