Go Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

SSL Server Example

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates how to create an SSL socket for accepting connections. This example is *very* simple in that it will create an SSL socket for accepting a single connection. It will read a message from the client, send a reply, and exit. Go

    success := false

    //  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    //  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    listenSslSocket := chilkat.NewSocket()

    //  An SSL server needs a digital certificate.  This example loads it from a PFX file.

    //  Create an instance of a certificate store object, load a PFX file,
    //  locate the certificate we need, and use it.
    //  (a PFX file may contain more than one certificate.)
    certStore := chilkat.NewCertStore()
    //  The 1st argument is the filename, the 2nd arg is the 
    //  PFX file's password:
    success = certStore.LoadPfxFile("chilkat.pfx","test")
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(certStore.LastErrorText())
        listenSslSocket.DisposeSocket()
        certStore.DisposeCertStore()
        return
    }

    //  Find the certificate to be used for SSL:
    jsonCN := chilkat.NewJsonObject()
    jsonCN.UpdateString("CN","example.com")

    cert := chilkat.NewCert()
    success = certStore.FindCert(jsonCN,cert)
    if success == false {

        return
    }

    //  Use the certificate:
    success = listenSslSocket.InitSslServer(cert)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(listenSslSocket.LastErrorText())

    //  Allow for a max of 5 queued connect requests.
    backLog := 5

    //  If accepting an SSL/TLS connection, the SSL handshake is part of the connection
    //  establishment process. This involves a few back-and-forth messages between the 
    //  client and server to establish algorithms and a shared key to create the secure 
    //  channel. The sending and receiving of these messages are governed by the 
    //  MaxReadIdleMs and MaxSendIdleMs properties. If these properties are set to 0 
    //  (and this is the default unless changed by your application), then the 
    //  AcceptNext can hang indefinitely during the SSL handshake process. 
    //  Make sure these properties are set to appropriate values before calling AcceptNext.

    //  Set a 10 second max for waiting to read/write.  This is for the SSL/TLS handshake establishment.
    listenSslSocket.SetMaxReadIdleMs(10000)
    listenSslSocket.SetMaxSendIdleMs(10000)

    //  Accept a single client connection and establish the secure SSL/TLS channel:
    maxWaitMillisec := 20000

    //  message.  Read it:
