Set a TLS Client Certificate from a PEM

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.SetSslClientCertPem, which loads and configures a TLS client certificate and private key from PEM data or a PEM file.

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.

load ./chilkat.dll

set success 0

set socket [new_CkSocket]

#  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 PEM password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
set pemPassword "myPemPassword"

#  Load and configure the TLS client certificate and private key from a PEM file.  Configure the
#  client certificate before connecting.
set success [CkSocket_SetSslClientCertPem $socket "qa_data/client.pem" $pemPassword]
if {$success == 0} then {
    puts [CkSocket_lastErrorText $socket]
    delete_CkSocket $socket
    exit
}

set bTls 1
set maxWaitMs 5000
set success [CkSocket_Connect $socket "example.com" 5000 $bTls $maxWaitMs]
if {$success == 0} then {
    puts [CkSocket_lastErrorText $socket]
    delete_CkSocket $socket
