mysqli_ssl_set

(no version information, might be only in CVS)

mysqli->ssl_set -- Used for establishing secure connections using SSL

## Description

Procedural style:

bool mysqli_ssl_set ( mysqli link, string key, string cert, string ca, string capath, string cipher )

Object oriented style (method):

class mysqli {
bool ssl_set ( string key, string cert, string ca, string capath, string cipher )
}

The function mysqli_ssl_set() is used for establishing secure connections using SSL. It must be called before mysqli_real_connect(). This function does nothing unless OpenSSL support is enabled.

key is the pathname to the key file. cert is the pathname to the certificate file. ca is the pathname to the certificate authority file. capath is the pathname to a directory that contains trusted SSL CA certificates in pem format. cipher is a list of allowable ciphers to use for SSL encryption. Any unused SSL parameters may be given as `NULL`

## Return Values

This function always returns `TRUE` value. If SSL setup is incorrect mysqli_real_connect() will return an error when you attempt to connect.
