Hello.

I'm testing the behavior of the library when connecting to a server which does not support the same handshake. My application calls BeginConnect with a callback. During connection, an SslException is thrown from "CompatibilityLayer.cs", line #80, as expected. My callback gets called, and within a try/catch I call EndConnect. It does not throw. I would have expected it to throw that same SslException. At this point, the next line tries to access the RemoteEndPoint property, which ends up calling InternalSocket.RemoteEndPoint, which throws an ObjectDisposedException.

My questions:

a) Shouldn't EndConnect have thrown?
b) Else, how to I get any connection errors?

Thank you.

EndConnect doesn't throw an exception because the SSL/TLS handshake hasn't begun at the point EndConnect returns.

RemoteEndPoint throws the ObjectDisposedException instead of the expected SslException because it isn't overridden in the SecureSocket class.

Handshake exceptions are usually caught when calling Send, Receive, or another method that's overridden in the SecureSocket class.
