Set a TLS Client Certificate from a Cert Object

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.SetSslClientCert, which configures a certificate as the client certificate for subsequent TLS connections. The certificate must have access to its private key.

The file path is relative to the application's current working directory. An absolute path may also be used. Supply the path appropriate to your own environment.

// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.
