Hi!

This is a short snippet of code I use in a commercial application to get the SSL sockets up and running. I suppose it solves a very specific situation but I hope you'll be able to use it at least to stumble upon some ideas.

Regards

Tomas

	socket.Clear();
	if(encrypt) {
		if(!ssl_context) {
			ssl_context = new SSLContext;
			if(!ssl_context->Create(SSLv3_client_method())) {
				WhenConsole(NFormat("Error creating SSL context: %s", SSLGetLastError()), 0);
				return false;
			}
			if(!IsNull(certificate_file) || !IsNull(private_key_file)) {
				String cdata = LoadFile(certificate_file);
				if(IsNull(cdata)) {
					WhenConsole(NFormat("Error reading certificate file '%s'.", certificate_file), 0);
					return false;
				}
				String pdata = LoadFile(private_key_file);
				if(IsNull(pdata)) {
					WhenConsole(NFormat("Error reading private key file '%s'.", private_key_file), 0);
					return false;
				}
				if(!ssl_context->UseCertificate(cdata, pdata)) {
					WhenConsole(NFormat("Invalid certificate '%s' / private key '%s': %s",
						certificate_file, private_key_file, SSLGetLastError()), 0);
					return false;
				}
			}
		}
		SSLClientSocket(socket, *ssl_context, host, port, true, NULL, timeout_msecs);
	}
	else
		ClientSocket(socket, host, port, true, NULL, timeout_msecs);
	if(!socket.IsOpen()) {
		WhenConsole(NFormat(t_("Error opening socket %s:%d: %s\n"), host, port, Socket::GetErrorText()), 0);
		return false;
	}
