#include <secure.h>
Public Types | |
typedef void * | bufio_t |
Covenience type to represent a secure socket buf i/o stream. | |
typedef secure * | context_t |
Convenience type to represent a security context. | |
enum | error_t { OK = 0, INVALID, MISSING_CERTIFICATE, MISSING_PRIVATEKEY, INVALID_CERTIFICATE, INVALID_AUTHORITY, INVALID_PEERNAME, INVALID_CIPHER } |
Different error states of the security context. | |
typedef void * | session_t |
Convenience type to represent a secure socket session. | |
Public Member Functions | |
error_t | err (void) |
Get last error code associated with the security context. | |
bool | is (void) |
Determine if the current security context is valid. | |
virtual | ~secure () |
This is derived in different back-end libraries, and will be used to clear certificate credentials. | |
Static Public Member Functions | |
static void | cipher (context_t context, char *ciphers) |
Assign a non-default cipher to the context. | |
static context_t | client (char *authority=((void *) 0)) |
Create an anonymous client context with an optional authority to validate. | |
static bool | init (char *program=((void *) 0)) |
Initialize secure stack for first use, and report if SSL support is compiled in. | |
static context_t | server (char *authority=((void *) 0)) |
Create a sever context. | |
static context_t | user (char *authority) |
Create a peer user client context. | |
static String | uuid (void) |
static void | uuid (char *string) |
Create 36 character traditional version 1 uuid. | |
static error_t | verify (session_t session, char *peername=((void *) 0)) |
Verify a certificate chain through your certificate authority. | |
Protected Attributes | |
error_t | error |
Last error flagged for this context. |

static void ucc::secure::cipher | ( | context_t | context, | |
char * | ciphers | |||
) | [static] |
Assign a non-default cipher to the context.
context | to set cipher for. | |
ciphers | to set. |
static context_t ucc::secure::client | ( | char * | authority = ((void *) 0) |
) | [static] |
Create an anonymous client context with an optional authority to validate.
authority | path to use or NULL if none. |
error_t ucc::secure::err | ( | void | ) | [inline] |
static bool ucc::secure::init | ( | char * | program = ((void *) 0) |
) | [static] |
Initialize secure stack for first use, and report if SSL support is compiled in.
This allows a program name to be passed, which may be used for some proxy systems.
program | name we are initializing for. |
bool ucc::secure::is | ( | void | ) | [inline] |
static context_t ucc::secure::server | ( | char * | authority = ((void *) 0) |
) | [static] |
Create a sever context.
The certificate file used will be based on the init() method name. This may often be /etc/ssl/certs/initname.pem. Similarly, a matching private key certificate will also be loaded. An optional certificate authority document can be used when we are establishing a service which ssl clients have their own certificates.
authority | path to use or NULL if none. |
static context_t ucc::secure::user | ( | char * | authority | ) | [static] |
Create a peer user client context.
This assumes a user certificate in ~/.ssl/certs and the user private key in ~/.ssl/private. The path to an authority is also sent.
authority | path to use. |
static void ucc::secure::uuid | ( | char * | string | ) | [static] |
Create 36 character traditional version 1 uuid.
string | to write uuid into, must be 37 bytes or more. |
Verify a certificate chain through your certificate authority.
This uses the ca loaded as an optional argument for client and server. Optionally the hostname of the connection can also be verified by pulling the peer certificate.
session | that is connected. | |
peername | that we expect. |
