L_DicomSetClientCertificateTLS

Summary

Sets a certificate for the client.

Syntax

#include "ltdic.h"

L_LTDIC_API L_UINT32 L_DicomSetClientCertificateTLS(hNet, pszPathToCertificateFile, nCertType, pszPathToKeyFile)

Parameters

HDICOMNET hNet

Handle to an existing DICOM Network. This is the handle returned from the L_DicomCreateNet function.

L_TCHAR *pszPathToCertificateFile

Character string that contains the path to the file that contains the certificate.

L_UINT32 nCertType

Flag that indicates whether the certificate is binary or text. Possible values are:

Value	Meaning
L_TLS_FILETYPE_PEM	Text certificate.
L_TLS_FILETYPE_ASN1	Binary certificate.

L_TCHAR *pszPathToKeyFile

Character string that contains the path to the file containing the private key. This parameter is used if the private key is available in raw mode.

Returns

Value	Meaning
DICOM_SUCCESS	The function was successful.
<>DICOM_SUCCESS	An error occurred. Refer to the Return Codes.

Comments

Usual size for RSA key is 512 and 1024 bits. There are no known export restrictions.

The nCertType can take values L_TLS_FILETYPE_PEM (text certificate) or L_TLS_FILETYPE_ASN1 (binary certificate).
