Detailed Description

TlsClientConnection - TLS client-side connection.

TlsClientConnection is the client-side subclass of TlsConnection, representing a client-side TLS connection.

Since glibmm 2.36:

◆ copy_session_state()

void Gio::TlsClientConnection::copy_session_state ( const Glib::RefPtr< TlsClientConnection > &  source)

Possibly copies session state from one connection to another, for use in TLS session resumption.

This is not normally needed, but may be used when the same session needs to be used between different endpoints, as is required by some protocols, such as FTP over TLS. source should have already completed a handshake and, since TLS 1.3, it should have been used to read data at least once. conn should not have completed a handshake.

It is not possible to know whether a call to this function will actually do anything. Because session resumption is normally used only for performance benefit, the TLS backend might not implement this function. Even if implemented, it may not actually succeed in allowing conn to resume source's TLS session, because the server may not have sent a session resumption token to source, or it may refuse to accept the token from conn. There is no way to know whether a call to this function is actually successful.

Using this function is not required to benefit from session resumption. If the TLS backend supports session resumption, the session will be resumed automatically if it is possible to do so without weakening the privacy guarantees normally provided by TLS, without need to call this function. For example, with TLS 1.3, a session ticket will be automatically copied from any TlsClientConnection that has previously received session tickets from the server, provided a ticket is available that has not previously been used for session resumption, since session ticket reuse would be a privacy weakness. Using this function causes the ticket to be copied without regard for privacy considerations.

Since glibmm 2.46:
Parameters
sourceA TlsClientConnection.

◆ create() [1/2]

static Glib::RefPtr< TlsClientConnection > Gio::TlsClientConnection::create ( const Glib::RefPtr< IOStream > &  base_io_stream)

This will be set during the TLS handshake if the server requests a certificate. Otherwise, it will be nullptr.

Each item in the list is a ByteArray which contains the complete subject DN of the certificate authority.

Since glibmm 2.28:
Returns
The list of CA DNs.

◆ get_accepted_cas() [2/2]

std::vector< Glib::RefPtr< const Glib::ByteArray > > Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_accepted_cas ( ) const

Gets the list of distinguished names of the Certificate Authorities that the server will accept certificates from.

This will be set during the TLS handshake if the server requests a certificate. Otherwise, it will be nullptr.

Since glibmm 2.28:
Returns
The list of CA DNs.

◆ get_server_identity() [1/2]

Glib::RefPtr< SocketConnectable > Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_server_identity ( )

Gets conn's expected server identity.

Since glibmm 2.28:
Returns
A SocketConnectable describing the expected server identity, or nullptr if the expected identity is not known.

◆ get_server_identity() [2/2]

Glib::RefPtr< const SocketConnectable > Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_server_identity ( ) const

Since glibmm 2.28:
Returns
A SocketConnectable describing the expected server identity, or nullptr if the expected identity is not known.

◆ get_type()

static GType Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_type ( )
static

Get the GType for this class, for use with the underlying GObject type system.

◆ get_use_ssl3()

bool Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_use_ssl3 ( ) const

SSL 3.0 is no longer supported.

See g_tls_client_connection_set_use_ssl3() for details.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Deprecated: 2.56: SSL 3.0 is insecure.

Deprecated:
SSL 3.0 is insecure, and this function does not actually indicate whether it is enabled.
Returns
false.

◆ get_validation_flags()

TlsCertificateFlags Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_validation_flags ( ) const

Gets this client connection's validation flags.

This function does not work as originally designed and is impossible to use correctly.

Since glibmm 2.28:
Returns
The validation flags.

◆ gobj() [1/2]

GTlsClientConnection * Gio::TlsClientConnection::gobj ( )
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

◆ gobj() [2/2]

const GTlsClientConnection * Gio::TlsClientConnection::gobj ( ) const
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

◆ property_accepted_cas()

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< std::vector< Glib::RefPtr< Glib::ByteArray > > > Gio::TlsClientConnection::property_accepted_cas ( ) const

A list of the distinguished names of the Certificate Authorities that the server will accept client certificates signed by.

If the server requests a client certificate during the handshake, then this property will be set after the handshake completes.

Each item in the list is a ByteArray which contains the complete subject DN of the certificate authority.

Since glibmm 2.28:
Deprecated:
property_accepted_cas() does not work. Use get_accepted_cas() instead.
Returns
A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

◆ property_server_identity() [1/2]

Glib::PropertyProxy< Glib::RefPtr< SocketConnectable > > Gio::TlsClientConnection::property_server_identity ( )

A SocketConnectable describing the identity of the server that is expected on the other end of the connection.

If the TLS_CERTIFICATE_BAD_IDENTITY flag is set in TlsClientConnection::property_validation_flags(), this object will be used to determine the expected identify of the remote end of the connection; if TlsClientConnection::property_server_identity() is not set, or does not match the identity presented by the server, then the TLS_CERTIFICATE_BAD_IDENTITY validation will fail.

In addition to its use in verifying the server certificate, this is also used to give a hint to the server about what certificate we expect, which is useful for servers that serve virtual hosts.

Since glibmm 2.28:
Returns
A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

◆ property_server_identity() [2/2]

Default value: TLS_CERTIFICATE_UNKNOWN_CA | TLS_CERTIFICATE_BAD_IDENTITY | TLS_CERTIFICATE_NOT_ACTIVATED | TLS_CERTIFICATE_EXPIRED | TLS_CERTIFICATE_REVOKED | TLS_CERTIFICATE_INSECURE | TLS_CERTIFICATE_GENERIC_ERROR

Returns
A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

◆ property_validation_flags() [2/2]

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< TlsCertificateFlags > Gio::TlsClientConnection::property_validation_flags ( ) const

What steps to perform when validating a certificate received from a server.

Server certificates that fail to validate in any of the ways indicated here will be rejected unless the application overrides the default via TlsConnection::signal_accept_certificate().

Since glibmm 2.28:

Default value: TLS_CERTIFICATE_UNKNOWN_CA | TLS_CERTIFICATE_BAD_IDENTITY | TLS_CERTIFICATE_NOT_ACTIVATED | TLS_CERTIFICATE_EXPIRED | TLS_CERTIFICATE_REVOKED | TLS_CERTIFICATE_INSECURE | TLS_CERTIFICATE_GENERIC_ERROR

Returns
A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

◆ set_server_identity()

void Gio::TlsClientConnection::set_server_identity ( const Glib::RefPtr< SocketConnectable > &  identity)

Sets conn's expected server identity, which is used both to tell servers on virtual hosts which certificate to present, and also to let conn know what name to look for in the certificate when performing TLS_CERTIFICATE_BAD_IDENTITY validation, if enabled.

Since glibmm 2.28:
Parameters
identityA SocketConnectable describing the expected server identity.

◆ set_use_ssl3()

void Gio::TlsClientConnection::set_use_ssl3 ( bool  use_ssl3 = true)

Since GLib 2.42.1, SSL 3.0 is no longer supported.

From GLib 2.42.1 through GLib 2.62, this function could be used to force use of TLS 1.0, the lowest-supported TLS protocol version at the time. In the past, this was needed to connect to broken TLS servers that exhibited protocol version intolerance. Such servers are no longer common, and using TLS 1.0 is no longer considered acceptable.

Since GLib 2.64, this function does nothing.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Deprecated: 2.56: SSL 3.0 is insecure.

Deprecated:
SSL 3.0 is insecure, and this function does not generally enable or disable it, despite its name.
Parameters
use_ssl3A bool, ignored.

◆ set_validation_flags()

void Gio::TlsClientConnection::set_validation_flags ( TlsCertificateFlags  flags)

Sets this client connection's validation flags, to override the default set of checks performed when validating a server certificate.

By default, Gio::TLS_CERTIFICATE_VALIDATE_ALL is used.

This function does not work as originally designed and is impossible to use correctly.

Since glibmm 2.28:
Parameters
flagsThe TlsCertificateFlags to use.
