Configure a Socket for Server-Side TLS

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.InitSslServer, which configures the object for server-side TLS using a server certificate that has access to its private key, then listens for and accepts a TLS connection.

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.

    success := false

    socket := chilkat.NewSocket()

    //  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.
    //  The PFX password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
    pfxPassword := "myPfxPassword"
    cert := chilkat.NewCert()
    success = cert.LoadPfxFile("qa_data/server.pfx",pfxPassword)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(cert.LastErrorText())
        socket.DisposeSocket()
        cert.DisposeCert()
        return
    }

    //  Configure this object for server-side TLS using the certificate.  The certificate must have
    //  access to its corresponding private key.
    success = socket.InitSslServer(cert)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(socket.LastErrorText())
        socket.DisposeSocket()
        cert.DisposeCert()
        return
    }

    //  Listen for connections.  Accepted connections will use TLS.
    success = socket.BindAndListen(5000,25)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(socket.LastErrorText())
        socket.DisposeSocket()
        cert.DisposeCert()
        return
    }

    connectedSock := chilkat.NewSocket()
    success = socket.AcceptNext(20000,connectedSock)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(socket.LastErrorText())
        socket.DisposeSocket()
        cert.DisposeCert()
        connectedSock.DisposeSocket()
        return

    fmt.Println("Accepted a TLS client connection.")
