Demonstrates how to access the client certificates for a TLS connection accepted by your application acting as the server.

    let listenSslSocket = CkoSocket()!

    // An SSL/TLS server needs a digital certificate.  This example loads it from a PFX file.
    // This is the server's certificate.

    let cert = CkoCert()!

    // To accept client client certificates in the TLS handshake,
    // we must indicate a list of acceptable client certificate root CA DN's
    // that are allowed.  (DN is an acronym for Distinguished Name.)
    // Call AddSslAcceptableClientCaDn once for each acceptable CA DN.
    // Here are a few examples so you can see the general format of a DN.
    listenSslSocket.addSslAcceptableClientCaDn("C=SE, O=AddTrust AB, OU=AddTrust External TTP Network, CN=AddTrust External CA Root")
    listenSslSocket.addSslAcceptableClientCaDn("O=Digital Signature Trust Co., CN=DST Root CA X3")

    // Initialize with our server's TLS certificate.
    success = listenSslSocket.initSslServer(cert)
    if success != true {
        print("\(listenSslSocket.lastErrorText!)")

    var myPort: Int = 8123
    // Allow for a max of 5 queued connect requests.
    var backLog: Int = 5
    success = listenSslSocket.bindAndListen(myPort, backlog: backLog)
    if success != true {
        print("\(listenSslSocket.lastErrorText!)")

    var maxWaitMillisec: Int = 20000
    var clientSock: CkoSocket? = listenSslSocket.acceptNextConnection(maxWaitMillisec)
    if listenSslSocket.lastMethodSuccess == false {
        print("\(listenSslSocket.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // Examine the client certs chain.  The 1st cert will be the client certificate, and
    // the subsequent certs will be the certs in the chain of authentication.
    var numClientCerts: Int = clientSock!.numReceivedClientCerts.intValue
    print("numClientCerts = \(numClientCerts)")

    var i: Int = 0
    while i < numClientCerts {
        var clientCert: CkoCert? = clientSock!.getReceivedClientCert(i)
        print("\(clientCert!.subjectDN!)")
        clientCert = nil
