the concept here is to provide for a module that implements TLS for nodejs fast, this is mostly just a proof of concept and is nowhere near ready for anything useful be warned!

idea is as seen in test.js

var server = tls.createServer(options, function (conn, conn_id) {
    conn.on("data", function(buf) {
    });
    conn.on("close", function() {
    });
    conn.on("error", function(err) {
    });
}).listen(8443);

Currently it runs a hack from hell to not fork or create a thread to manage the dedicated libev c++ loops, i think there is no way to get away from at least a thread to allow the m_loop.run(0) to run as long as the server is running right now the hack is to poll the server loop which is silly.

When trying to wrap the Connection object created in the Server::io_accept to send to the connection callback as show above there is an instant segfault, from what I can find in nodejs the object wraping is always done from a new object in the javascript side, but that just doesn't seem to work for me in this desgin.


There are some hold overs from test code based on the stud (git://github.com/bumptech/stud.git) project namely the OPTIONS struct and LOG and ERR macros as I wanted to focus on getting it accepting TLS connections rather than refactoring everything out. It prints out the cert as read by javascript but doesn't use it instead has a hardcoded path for now....etc.
