Constructors

Context(
    const std::string & privateKeyFile,
    const std::string & caLocation,
    bool isServerContext,
    VerificationMode verMode = VERIFY_STRICT,
    int verificationDepth = 9,
    bool loadCAFromDefaultPath = false,
    const std::string & cypherList = "ALL:!ADH:!LOW:!EXP:!MD5:@STRENGTH"
);

Creates a context. privateKeyFile contains the key used for encryption, caLocation can either be a directory or a single file containing the certificates for certificate authorities. isServerContext defines if the context belongs to a server or client. verificationDepth sets the upper limit for verification chain sizes. If we encounter a chain larger than that limit, verification will fail. Cypherlist defines which protocols are allowed. Creates the Context.

Destructor

~Context

~Context();

Destroys the Context.
