SSL Client Example

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates how to connect to an SSL server, send a simple message, receive a simple response, and disconnect. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

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

socket = Chilkat::CkSocket.new()

ssl = true
maxWaitMillisec = 20000

# The SSL server hostname may be an IP address, a domain name,
# or "localhost".  You'll need to change this:

sslServerHost = "123.123.88.88"
sslServerPort = 8123

# Connect to the SSL server:
success = socket.Connect(sslServerHost,sslServerPort,ssl,maxWaitMillisec)
if (success != true)
    print socket.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Set maximum timeouts for reading an writing (in millisec)
socket.put_MaxReadIdleMs(20000)
socket.put_MaxSendIdleMs(20000)

# Send a "Hello Server! -EOM-" message:
success = socket.SendString("Hello Server! -EOM-")
if (success != true)
    print socket.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# The server (in this example) is going to send a "Hello Client! -EOM-" 
# message.  Read it:
receivedMsg = socket.receiveUntilMatch("-EOM-")
if (socket.get_LastMethodSuccess() != true)
    print socket.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Close the connection with the server
# Wait a max of 20 seconds (20000 millsec)
success = socket.Close(20000)

print receivedMsg + "\n";
