I'm trying to figure out how to use TLS (or SSL) with Akka IO. I realize that the pipeline stuff has been ripped out of Akka. They mentioned that they will have something shiny and new in the 2.4 release of Akka, but I don't see anything in the documentation and can't find any examples.

How does one go about enabling TLS for an Akka Tcp Server?

Thanks!

There is no 2.4 release yet. The replacement for the old pipelines is Akka Streams (http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka-stream-and-http-experimental/1.0-M5/scala.html) which is closing on on 1.0, and eventually becomes an experimental module of 2.4. TLS support is expected to come in Akka Streams 1.0-RC1 in a few weeks.

EDIT FROM THE FUTURE: It has been a few weeks and TLS support has been released in RC1. The documentation is still thin, but you can find some here http://doc.akka.io/api/akka-stream-and-http-experimental/1.0-RC2/#akka.stream.io.SslTls$
