According to the manual page for HTTP::Daemon it uses a IO::Socket::INET object that gets blessed into the daemon class. I looked at the code, and aside from force-setting Listen and Proto arguments before handing off to the parent class' constructor, this is the case.

According to the manual page for IO::Socket::SSL, it too is an almost straight sub-class of IO::Socket::INET. Thus, it should in theory be possible to create an object of the IO::Socket::SSL class, bless it into HTTP::Daemon manually, and use it as an ordinary daemon object. I say in theory because the SSL class manpage warns that it doesn't have the full set of methods provided for just yet, so if the HTTP::Daemon class happens to try to use one of the few that aren't available, chaos may well ensue. But it is certainly worth a try.

I myself would be interested to hear about your results, as I've been meaning to try my RPC::XML::Server class out with SSL underneath.

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
