Hi, I would like to create an ssl stream for an already accepted native socket, just like is possible with basic_stream_socket< tcp >. How should this be done? Currently there is only one ssl::stream constructor which takes one parameter that is passed to the basic_stream_socket: template <typename Arg, typename Context_Service> explicit stream(Arg& arg, basic_context<Context_Service>& context) : next_layer_(arg), service_(boost::asio::use_service<Service>(next_layer_.get_io_service())), impl_(service_.null()) { service_.create(impl_, next_layer_, context); } To be able to create an ssl stream from an existing socket we would need a constructor which passes three parameters to the basic_stream_socket like this: template <typename Arg1, typename Arg2, typename Arg3, typename Context_Service> explicit stream(Arg1& arg1, Arg2& arg2, Arg3& arg3, basic_context<Context_Service>& context) : next_layer_(arg1, arg2, arg3), service_(boost::asio::use_service<Service>(next_layer_.get_io_service())), impl_(service_.null()) { service_.create(impl_, next_layer_, context); } Would it be a problem to add constructors that passes two and three parameters to the basic_stream_socket or can this be done in another way?
