Detailed Description

TLS client-side connection.

TlsClientConnection is the client-side subclass of TlsConnection, representing a client-side TLS connection.

Since glibmm 2.36:

Member Function Documentation

static void Gio::TlsClientConnection::add_interface ( GType gtype_implementer )

static

void Gio::TlsClientConnection::copy_session_state ( const Glib::RefPtr< TlsClientConnection >& source )

Possibly copies session state from one connection to another, for use in TLS session resumption.

This is not normally needed, but may be used when the same session needs to be used between different endpoints, as is required by some protocols, such as FTP over TLS. source should have already completed a handshake and, since TLS 1.3, it should have been used to read data at least once. conn should not have completed a handshake.

It is not possible to know whether a call to this function will actually do anything. Because session resumption is normally used only for performance benefit, the TLS backend might not implement this function. Even if implemented, it may not actually succeed in allowing conn to resume source's TLS session, because the server may not have sent a session resumption token to source, or it may refuse to accept the token from conn. There is no way to know whether a call to this function is actually successful.

Using this function is not required to benefit from session resumption. If the TLS backend supports session resumption, the session will be resumed automatically if it is possible to do so without weakening the privacy guarantees normally provided by TLS, without need to call this function. For example, with TLS 1.3, a session ticket will be automatically copied from any TlsClientConnection that has previously received session tickets from the server, provided a ticket is available that has not previously been used for session resumption, since session ticket reuse would be a privacy weakness. Using this function causes the ticket to be copied without regard for privacy considerations.

Since glibmm 2.46:

Parameters

source A TlsClientConnection.

static Glib::RefPtr<TlsClientConnectionImpl> Gio::TlsClientConnection::create	(	const Glib::RefPtr< IOStream >&	base_io_stream,
		const Glib::RefPtr< const SocketConnectable >&	server_identity
	)

static

Creates a new TlsClientConnection wrapping base_io_stream (which must have pollable input and output streams) which is assumed to communicate with the server identified by server_identity.

See the documentation for TlsConnection::property_base_io_stream() for restrictions on when application code can run operations on the base_io_stream after this function has returned.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Parameters

base_io_stream	The IOStream to wrap.
server_identity	The expected identity of the server.

Returns: The new TlsClientConnection, or nullptr on error.

Exceptions

Glib::Error

static Glib::RefPtr<TlsClientConnectionImpl> Gio::TlsClientConnection::create ( const Glib::RefPtr< IOStream >& base_io_stream )

static

A create() convenience overload.

std::vector< Glib::RefPtr<Glib::ByteArray> > Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_accepted_cas ( )

Gets the list of distinguished names of the Certificate Authorities that the server will accept certificates from.

This will be set during the TLS handshake if the server requests a certificate. Otherwise, it will be nullptr.

Each item in the list is a ByteArray which contains the complete subject DN of the certificate authority.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Returns: The list of CA DNs.

std::vector< Glib::RefPtr<const Glib::ByteArray> > Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_accepted_cas ( ) const

Gets the list of distinguished names of the Certificate Authorities that the server will accept certificates from.

This will be set during the TLS handshake if the server requests a certificate. Otherwise, it will be nullptr.

Each item in the list is a ByteArray which contains the complete subject DN of the certificate authority.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Returns: The list of CA DNs.

Glib::RefPtr<SocketConnectable> Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_server_identity ( )

Gets conn's expected server identity.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Returns: A SocketConnectable describing the expected server identity, or nullptr if the expected identity is not known.

Glib::RefPtr<const SocketConnectable> Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_server_identity ( ) const

Gets conn's expected server identity.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Returns: A SocketConnectable describing the expected server identity, or nullptr if the expected identity is not known.

static GType Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_type ( )

static

Get the GType for this class, for use with the underlying GObject type system.

TlsCertificateFlags Gio::TlsClientConnection::get_validation_flags ( ) const

Gets conn's validation flags.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Returns: The validation flags.

GTlsClientConnection* Gio::TlsClientConnection::gobj ( )

inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

const GTlsClientConnection* Gio::TlsClientConnection::gobj ( ) const

inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

TlsClientConnection& Gio::TlsClientConnection::operator= ( TlsClientConnection&& src )

noexcept

Glib::PropertyProxy< Glib::RefPtr<SocketConnectable> > Gio::TlsClientConnection::property_server_identity ( )

A SocketConnectable describing the identity of the server that is expected on the other end of the connection.

If the Gio::TlsCertificateFlags::BAD_IDENTITY flag is set in TlsClientConnection::property_validation_flags(), this object will be used to determine the expected identify of the remote end of the connection; if TlsClientConnection::property_server_identity() is not set, or does not match the identity presented by the server, then the Gio::TlsCertificateFlags::BAD_IDENTITY validation will fail.

In addition to its use in verifying the server certificate, this is also used to give a hint to the server about what certificate we expect, which is useful for servers that serve virtual hosts.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Returns: A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< Glib::RefPtr<SocketConnectable> > Gio::TlsClientConnection::property_server_identity ( ) const

A SocketConnectable describing the identity of the server that is expected on the other end of the connection.

In addition to its use in verifying the server certificate, this is also used to give a hint to the server about what certificate we expect, which is useful for servers that serve virtual hosts.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Returns: A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Glib::PropertyProxy< TlsCertificateFlags > Gio::TlsClientConnection::property_validation_flags ( )

What steps to perform when validating a certificate received from a server.

Server certificates that fail to validate in any of the ways indicated here will be rejected unless the application overrides the default via TlsConnection::signal_accept_certificate().

Since glibmm 2.28:

Returns: A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< TlsCertificateFlags > Gio::TlsClientConnection::property_validation_flags ( ) const

What steps to perform when validating a certificate received from a server.

Server certificates that fail to validate in any of the ways indicated here will be rejected unless the application overrides the default via TlsConnection::signal_accept_certificate().

Since glibmm 2.28:

Returns: A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

void Gio::TlsClientConnection::set_server_identity ( const Glib::RefPtr< SocketConnectable >& identity )

Sets conn's expected server identity, which is used both to tell servers on virtual hosts which certificate to present, and also to let conn know what name to look for in the certificate when performing Gio::TlsCertificateFlags::BAD_IDENTITY validation, if enabled.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Parameters

identity A SocketConnectable describing the expected server identity.

void Gio::TlsClientConnection::set_validation_flags ( TlsCertificateFlags flags )

Sets conn's validation flags, to override the default set of checks performed when validating a server certificate.

By default, Gio::TlsCertificateFlags::VALIDATE_ALL is used.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Parameters

flags The TlsCertificateFlags to use.
