NE_SSL_TRUST_CERT

Section: neon API reference (3)
Updated: 5 July 2004
 

NAME

ne_ssl_trust_cert, ne_ssl_trust_default_ca - functions to indicate that certificates are trusted  

SYNOPSIS

#include <ne_session.h>

void ne_ssl_trust_cert (ne_session *session, const ne_ssl_certificate *cert);
void ne_ssl_trust_default_ca (ne_session *session);

 

DESCRIPTION

To indicate that a given certificate is trusted by the user, the certificate object can be passed to ne_ssl_trust_cert. The certificate object is duplicated internally and can subequently be destroyed.

The SSL library in use by neon may include a default set of CA certificates; calling the ne_ssl_trust_default_ca function will indicate that these CAs are trusted by the user.

 

EXAMPLES

Load the CA certificate stored in /path/to/cacert.pem:

ne_session *sess = ne_session_create(...);
ne_ssl_certificate *cert = ne_ssl_cert_read("/path/to/cacert.pem");

if (cert) {
   ne_ssl_trust_cert(sess, cert);
   ne_ssl_cert_free(cert);
} else {
   printf("Could not load CA cert: %s\n", ne_get_error(sess));
}
