Net::SSL - support for Secure Sockets Layer
- new
-
Creates a new
Net::SSL object.
- configure
-
Configures a
Net::SSL socket for operation.
- configure_certs
-
Sets up a certificate file to use for communicating with on
the socket.
- connect
-
- die_with_error
-
- get_cipher
-
- get_lwp_object
-
Walks up the caller stack and looks for something blessed into
the
LWP::UserAgent namespace and returns it. Vaguely deprecated.
- get_peer_certificate
-
Gets the peer certificate from the underlying
Crypt::SSLeay::Conn
object.
- get_peer_verify
-
- get_shared_ciphers
-
- getchunk
-
Attempts to read up to 32KiB of data from the socket. Returns
undef if nothing was read, otherwise returns the data as
a scalar.
- pending
-
Provides access to OpenSSL's
pending attribute on the SSL connection
object.
- getline
-
Reads one character at a time until a newline is encountered,
and returns the line, including the newline. Grossly
inefficient.
- print
-
Concatenates the input parameters and writes them to the socket.
Does not honour
$, nor $/. Returns the number of bytes written.
- printf
-
Performs a
sprintf of the input parameters (thus, the first
parameter must be the format), and writes the result to the socket.
Returns the number of bytes written.
- proxy
-
Returns the hostname of an https proxy server, as specified by the
HTTPS_PROXY environment variable.
- proxy_connect_helper
-
Helps set up a connection through a proxy.
- read
-
Performs a read on the socket and returns the result.
- ssl_context
-
- sysread
-
Is an alias of
read.
- timeout
-
Returns the timeout value of the socket as defined by the implementing
class or 60 seconds by default.
- blocking
-
Returns a boolean indicating whether the underlying socket is in
blocking mode. By default, Net::SSL sockets are in blocking mode.
$sock->blocking(0); # set to non-blocking mode
This method simply calls the underlying blocking method of the
IO::Socket object.
- write
-
Writes the parameters passed in (thus, a list) to the socket. Returns
the number of bytes written.
- syswrite
-
Is an alias of
write.
- accept
-
Not yet implemented. Will die if called.
- getc
-
Not yet implemented. Will die if called.
- getlines
-
Not yet implemented. Will die if called.
- ungetc
-
Not yet implemented. Will die if called.
- send_useragent_to_proxy
-
By default (as of version 2.80 of
Net::SSL in the 0.54 distribution
of Crypt::SSLeay), the user agent string is no longer sent to the
proxy (but will continue to be sent to the remote host).
The previous behaviour was of marginal benefit, and could cause
fatal errors in certain scenarios (see CPAN bug #4759) and so no
longer happens by default.
To reinstate the old behaviour, call Net::SSL::send_useragent_to_proxy
with a true value (usually 1).
"no port given for proxy server <proxy>"
A proxy was specified for configuring a socket, but no port number
was given. Ensure that the proxy is specified as a host:port pair,
such as proxy.example.com:8086.
"configure certs failed: <contents of $@>; <contents of $!>"
"proxy connect failed: <contents of $@>; <contents of $!>"
"Connect failed: <contents of $@>; <contents of $!>"
During connect().
- IO::Socket::INET
-
Net::SSL is implemented by subclassing IO::Socket::INET, hence
methods not specifically overridden are defined by that package.
- Net::SSLeay
-
A package that provides a Perl-level interface to the
openssl
secure sockets layer library.
