Detailed Description

Certificate for SSL. This class embodies a common environment for all certificates used by the PSSLContext and PSSLChannel classes.

---

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PSSLCertificate::PSSLCertificate

(

)

Create an empty certificate.

PSSLCertificate::PSSLCertificate	(	const PFilePath &	certFile,
		PSSLFileTypes	fileType = PSSLFileTypeDEFAULT
	)

Create a new certificate given the file. The type of the certificate key can be specified explicitly, or if PSSLFileTypeDEFAULT it will be determined from the file extension, ".pem" is a text file, anything else eg ".der" is a binary ASN1 file.

Parameters:

certFile	Certificate file
fileType	Type of file to read

PSSLCertificate::PSSLCertificate	(	const BYTE *	certData,
		PINDEX	certSize
	)

Create certificate from the binary ASN1 DER encoded data specified.

Parameters:

certData	Certificate data
certSize	Size of certificate data

PSSLCertificate::PSSLCertificate

(

const PBYTEArray &

certData

)

Create certificate from the binary ASN1 DER encoded data specified.

Parameters:

certData

Certificate data

PSSLCertificate::PSSLCertificate

(

const PString &

certString

)

Create certificate from the ASN1 DER base64 encoded data specified.

Parameters:

certString

Certificate data as string

PSSLCertificate::PSSLCertificate

(

const PSSLCertificate &

cert

)

Create a copy of the certificate.

PSSLCertificate::~PSSLCertificate

(

)

Destroy and release storage for certificate.

---

Member Function Documentation

PSSLCertificate& PSSLCertificate::operator=

(

const PSSLCertificate &

cert

)

Create a copy of the certificate.

PSSLCertificate::operator x509_st *

(

)

const [inline]

Get internal OpenSSL X509 structure.

PBoolean PSSLCertificate::CreateRoot	(	const PString &	subject,
		const PSSLPrivateKey &	key
	)

Create a new root certificate. The subject name is a string of the form "/name=value/name=value" where name is a short name for the field and value is a string value for the field for example: "/C=ZA/SP=Western Cape/L=Cape Town/O=Thawte Consulting cc" "/OU=Certification Services Division/CN=Thawte Server CA" "/Email=server-certs@thawte.com"

Parameters:

subject	Subject name for certificate
key	Key to sign certificate with

PBYTEArray PSSLCertificate::GetData

(

)

const

Get the certificate as binary ASN1 DER encoded data.

PString PSSLCertificate::AsString

(

)

const

Get the certificate as ASN1 DER base64 encoded data.

PBoolean PSSLCertificate::Load	(	const PFilePath &	certFile,
		PSSLFileTypes	fileType = PSSLFileTypeDEFAULT
	)

Load certificate from file. The type of the certificate key can be specified explicitly, or if PSSLFileTypeDEFAULT it will be determined from the file extension, ".pem" is a text file, anything else eg ".der" is a binary ASN1 file.

Parameters:

certFile	Certificate file
fileType	Type of file to read

PBoolean PSSLCertificate::Save	(	const PFilePath &	keyFile,
		PBoolean	append = PFalse,
		PSSLFileTypes	fileType = PSSLFileTypeDEFAULT
	)

Save certificate to file. The type of the certificate key can be specified explicitly, or if PSSLFileTypeDEFAULT it will be determined from the file extension, ".pem" is a text file, anything else eg ".der" is a binary ASN1 file.

Parameters:

keyFile	Certificate key file
append	Append to file
fileType	Type of file to write
