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 subsequently 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 FC/path/to/cacert.pemF[]:

 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));
 }
