QUESTION

[ayman708-UX]

does v2.1.0-rc2 webtorrent support not work on android? or is it an issue from my build?

im trying to add webtorrent support to my package https://pub.dev/packages/libtorrent_flutter, it works perfectly fine on most devices but not android, refuses to connect to peers and never receives metadata

[arvidn]

webtorrent was only enabled by default here: #8532
so it's included in 2.1.0-rc3. Unless you built it from source and explicitly enabled webtorrent support.

It could be an issue with the SSL certificate store on Android. If you have any insights into where OpenSSL can find system certificates, please let me know (or propose a PR).

i build libtorrent from the source yes and for openssl i bundle it directly into the package so its always self contained

This is the section of code I'm referring to. If openssl can't find your system's certificate store, it can't validate HTTPS server. If you're shipping the certificate store, are you sure libtorrent knows where to look for it and picks it up?

Thanks for the clue
i'll see if i could figure this out and get it to work, adding webtorrent support for libtorrent is a huge thing for the torrent streaming community could be bigger than you think, thanks a lot for your hard work
