Net::SSLeay - useful function prototypes

#----------------------------------
# Import frequently used functions
#----------------------------------

use Net::SSLeay qw(die_now die_if_ssl_error);

$errs = die_if_ssl_error($msg);
	Program dies with $msg if print_errs() was able to find and print 
	some errors.
	$errs is 0 if no error occurred.

die_now($msg);
	Program dies unconditionally! print_errs($msg) is used to print out 
	errors before dying.

#--------------------------
# Unsorted prototypes  
#--------------------------

$count = Net::SSLeay::print_errs($msg);
	Prints SSLeay-error stack with included $msg via 'warn'. Number of 
	printed	errors is returned (->$count).

void Net::SSLeay::randomize($seed_file,$seed_string);
void Net::SSLeay::randomize();
	Load random bytes from $seed_file and from string $seed_string.
	Also uses $Net::SSLeay::random_device and $Net::SSLeay::how_random 
	(Bits!) if used	without parameters.

void Net::SSLeay::RAND_seed($seed_string);
	Seeds randomgenerator with $seed_string.

$bytes_read = Net::SSLeay::RAND_load_file($file_name, $how_much);
	Loads $how_much bytes randomness from file $file_name.

$bytes_written = Net::SSLeay::RAND_write_file($file_name);
	Writes randomness to $file_name.

void Net::SSLeay::load_error_strings();
	Load SSL error messages to make error output more informative.

void Net::SSLeay::ERR_load_crypto_strings();

void Net::SSLeay::SSLeay_add_ssl_algorithms();
	Add support for supported ciphers.

void Net::SSLeay::ENGINE_load_builtin_engines
	Load any built-in SSL engines suported by the underlybing OpenSSL

void Net::SSLeay::ENGINE_register_all_complete
	Register any built-in SSL engines

$ctx = Net::SSLeay::CTX_new();
	Creates SSL-context.

int Net::SSLeay::CTX_set_default_verify_paths($ctx);
	Load default location where to find certificates to verify
	remote certificates. This value is precompiled in SSLeay-Toolkit.

int Net::SSLeay::CTX_load_verify_locations($ctx, $cert_file, $cert_dir);
	Set verify location. File with certificates or hashed directory.

void Net::SSLeay::CTX_set_verify($ctx, $mode , \&verify_cb);
	Set mode and callback what to do with remote certificates.
	$mode:	
		&Net::SSLeay::VERIFY_NONE
		&Net::SSLeay::VERIFY_PEER
		&Net::SSLeay::VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
		&Net::SSLeay::VERIFY_CLIENT_ONCE
	\&verify_cb: 
		$ok = verify_cb($ok,$x509_store_ctx);
		Callback gets info if SSL-toolkit verified certificate ($ok) 
		and certificate store location.
	
void Net::SSLeay::CTX_set_default_passwd_cb($ctx,\&passwd_cb);
	If our RSA private key is passphrase protected and this callback is
	defined, then do not ask on the terminal but call the function.
	\&passwd_cb:
		$passwd = verify_cb($verify);
		If $verify is true, then the callback is supposed to make sure
		the returned password has been verified.

	Get X509 certificate from SSL_session.

$x509 = Net::SSLeay::X509_STORE_CTX_get_current_cert($x509_store_ctx)
	Extract current certificate from cert-store. Cert-store is
	used in callbacks!

	Return verify-mode in SSL-session.

$written_bytes = Net::SSLeay::ssl_write_all($ssl,$string);
	Write $string to SSL-session. This call returns undef if write failed.
	The whole string gets written!

$written_bytes = $Net::SSLeay::write($ssl,$string);
	Write $string to SSL-session. This call returns immediately. SSL maybe
	wrote the string not completely - check yourself or use ssl_write_all!

$string = Net::SSLeay::ssl_read_all($ssl,$how_much);
	Read everything available from the SSL-session and return it. Read a 
	maximum	of $how_much Bytes (default: 2000000000).

$string = Net::SSLeay::read($ssl);

	Free ressources from the SSL-session.

void Net::SSLeay::CTX_free ($ctx);
	Free ressources from the SSL-context.

#----------------------
# Hash functions
#----------------------

# Several cryptographic digests (hash functions) are supported, possibly
# including MD2, MD4, MD5, and RIPEMD160.

$hash = Net::SSLeay:MD5($data);
	Computes md5 hash over $data. $hash is a binary string! Convert it to
	a printable with $string = unpack("H32",Net::SSLeay::MD5($data));

$hash = Net::SSLeay:RIPEMD160($data);
       Computes RIPEMD160 hash over $data. $hash is a binary string! Convert it to
       a printable with $string = unpack("H40",Net::SSLeay::RIPEMD160($data));
 
Note that some digests may not be available, depending on the version
of OpenSSL used.
