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.

let socket = chilkat::Socket::new();

// 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.
let pfx_password = "myPfxPassword".to_string();
let cert = chilkat::Cert::new();
if cert.load_pfx_file("qa_data/server.pfx", &pfx_password).is_err() {
    println!("{}", cert.last_error_text());
    return;
}

// Configure this object for server-side TLS using the certificate.  The certificate must have
// access to its corresponding private key.
if socket.init_ssl_server(&cert).is_err() {
    println!("{}", socket.last_error_text());
    return;
}

// Listen for connections.  Accepted connections will use TLS.
if socket.bind_and_listen(5000, 25).is_err() {
    println!("{}", socket.last_error_text());
    return;
}

let connected_sock = chilkat::Socket::new();
if socket.accept_next(20000, &connected_sock).is_err() {
    println!("{}", socket.last_error_text());
    return;
}

println!("Accepted a TLS client connection.");
