SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3) OpenSSL SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3)
NAME
SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert - add certificate to chain
LIBRARY
libcrypto, -lcrypto
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
long SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(SSL_CTX ctx, X509 *x509)
DESCRIPTION
SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert() adds the certificate x509 to the
certificate chain presented together with the certificate. Several
certificates can be added one after the other.
NOTES
When constructing the certificate chain, the chain will be formed from
these certificates explicitly specified. If no chain is specified, the
library will try to complete the chain from the available CA
certificates in the trusted CA storage, see
SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3).
The x509 certificate provided to SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert() will be
freed by the library when the SSL_CTX is destroyed. An application
should not free the x509 object.
RESTRICTIONS
Only one set of extra chain certificates can be specified per SSL_CTX
structure. Different chains for different certificates (for example if
both RSA and DSA certificates are specified by the same server) or
different SSL structures with the same parent SSL_CTX cannot be
specified using this function.
RETURN VALUES
SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert() returns 1 on success. Check out the
error stack to find out the reason for failure otherwise.
