NAME
CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE - specify type of the client SSL certificate
SYNOPSIS
#include <
curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE, char *type);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a null-terminated string as parameter. The string should be
the format of your certificate. Supported formats are "PEM" and "DER", except
with Secure Transport. OpenSSL (versions 0.9.3 and later) and Secure Transport
(on iOS 5 or later, or OS X 10.7 or later) also support "P12" for
PKCS#12-encoded files.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
option.
DEFAULT
"PEM"
PROTOCOLS
All TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.
EXAMPLE
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERT, "client.pem");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE, "PEM");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLKEY, "key.pem");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");
ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
AVAILABILITY
If built TLS enabled. Added in 7.9.3
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if TLS is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or
CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
