socket.io c++ client, SSL

[gweinstock]

Hi,

I am currently using this socket.io c++ client: https://socket.io/blog/socket-io-cpp/. However, it looks like the project hasn't been maintained since 2015.

It works well, and there is a tls (ssl) c++ library build target, but I am not sure if it is actually using ssl or simply defaulting to http? I am not passing any ssl certicates to the client, so I am not 100% that it is actually using https to connect to the socket.io server. I am passing an https url to the client, and the socket.io server is listening on the https port, so it appears to be working, but is there a way I can confirm this?

I am also posting this to the GitHub for that project, but if anyone has any input, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Gabe
