glib iochannel filters ? never heard of that.


do you mean the openssl BIO/filter api ?


i don't see another option as to (on unix):

 - capture the fd from the io_channel

 - plug the fd into an openssl-context

 - encaspsulate the openssl BIO api into GIOFuncs

 - create a custom GIOChannel struct that includes
    the original iochannel and the openssl-context.


am i wrong or do you know another option ?
