I tried to create my own XMPP parser/library (for, ehm, educational
purposes). I never come across this issue. As far as I understand it, I
get proceed, but no more binary data. I send binary data first (I
initiate the SSL handshake), more come as a response and I can be ready
then.

So, when I receive proceed, take a stock standard SSL/TLS library, put it
between the socket and new instance of the parser, everything works all
by itself and the parser starts receiving data once encryption is
negotiated.

Or did I miss something important? It worked for me.

Have a nice day
