Qt + SSL

[ct]

Is there a way to make ssl connections with qt's socket. I remember there was something like QSsl for commercial package for Qt 3. Is there anything of the likes in Qt 4.2.2 or perhaps Qt 4.2.3 ?

The easiest way go get an idea what the answer of such a question would be, is to start the Qt Assistant and enter 'ssl' in the search. The results: SSL is only mentioned in: void QSqlDatabase::setConnectOptions ( const QString & options = QString() )

So probably no direct ssl support in Qt.

This surely is nice, but unfortunately not for everybody.

The upcoming Qt 4.3 introduces QSslSocket (http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3-snapshot/qsslsocket.html).

Thanks that could be very much helpful. Is there any place where we could perhaps download the beta version of 4.3 so that we could use this feature and probably upgrade our application to 4.3 when it actually gets released ( hope it would be soon )...

Yes Qt 4.2.3 is already released but the Ssl Support isn't up until Qt 4.3.
