SSL Client Example

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates how to connect to an SSL server, send a simple message, receive a simple response, and disconnect. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

# This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$socket = chilkat::CkSocket->new();

$ssl = 1;
$maxWaitMillisec = 20000;

# The SSL server hostname may be an IP address, a domain name,
# or "localhost".  You'll need to change this:

$sslServerHost = "123.123.88.88";
$sslServerPort = 8123;

# Connect to the SSL server:
$success = $socket->Connect($sslServerHost,$sslServerPort,$ssl,$maxWaitMillisec);
if ($success != 1) {
    print $socket->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# Set maximum timeouts for reading an writing (in millisec)
$socket->put_MaxReadIdleMs(20000);
$socket->put_MaxSendIdleMs(20000);

# Send a "Hello Server! -EOM-" message:
$success = $socket->SendString("Hello Server! -EOM-");
if ($success != 1) {
    print $socket->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# The server (in this example) is going to send a "Hello Client! -EOM-" 
# message.  Read it:
$receivedMsg = $socket->receiveUntilMatch("-EOM-");
if ($socket->get_LastMethodSuccess() != 1) {
    print $socket->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# Close the connection with the server
# Wait a max of 20 seconds (20000 millsec)
$success = $socket->Close(20000);

print $receivedMsg . "\r\n";
