Lianja Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Examine SSL/TLS Server Certificate

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates how an application can examine and check a server's SSL/TLS certificate. Lianja

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

//  If we get here, the TLS connection ws made..
//  In any SSL/TLS handshake, the server sends its certificate in a TLS handshake message.
//  Chilkat will keep it cached within the object that made the connection.
//  Get the server's cert and examine a few things.
