# OFTPClient Class

The OFTPClient class implements the Odette File Transfer Protocol.

## Syntax

```text
class ipworksedi.OFTPClient
```

## Remarks

The OFTPClient component may be used to send and receive OFTP files to and from an OFTP server.

**Receiving Files**

 The OFTPClient [receive_files](#receive_files-method) function requires certain server properties be set. You must set the [remote_host](#remote_host-property) property to the remote location of the desired OFTP server. You may also set a [remote_port](#remote_port-property) if the server is not set to the default protocol port. For client authorization, you must set the [client_ssid_code](#client_ssid_code-property), [client_sfid_code](#client_sfid_code-property), and [client_password](#client_password-property) properties. And, for server authentication, you must set the [server_ssid_code](#server_ssid_code-property), [server_sfid_code](#server_sfid_code-property), and [server_password](#server_password-property) properties.

The class will connect to the OFTP server and download all files in the server's outgoing queue, and write these files to the directory specified by [download_directory](#download_directory-property). The class creates a default location on the local machine based on the values of the [download_directory](#download_directory-property) and the Virtual Filename as received from the server. If a different location is preferred, you may set the **LocalFile** parameter of the [on_start_transfer](#on_start_transfer-event) event.

**Sending Files**

 The OFTPClient [send_file](#send_file-method) function requires the same server and authentication properties to be set as the [receive_files](#receive_files-method) function.

The class will connect to the OFTP server and upload the file contained by the **LocalFile** parameter. It uses the name specified by **VirtualFileName** when sending to the server. If this is not specified, the filename of the local file is parsed and used as the virtual filename.

local_host = property(get_local_host, set_local_host)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

This property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the *gethostname()* system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the IP address of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classes) only through that interface. It is recommended to provide an IP address rather than a hostname when setting this property to ensure the desired interface is used.

If the class is connected, the local_host property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

NOTE: local_host is not persistent. You must always set it in code, and never in the property window.

# recipient_cert_version property

The certificate's version number.

## Syntax

```text
def get_recipient_cert_version() -> str: ...
recipient_cert_version = property(get_recipient_cert_version, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The certificate's version number. The possible values are the strings "V1", "V2", and "V3".

This property is read-only.

# remote_host property

The domain name or IP address of the OFTP server.

## Syntax

```text
def get_remote_host() -> str: ...
def set_remote_host(value: str) -> None: ...
remote_host = property(get_remote_host, set_remote_host)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The remote_host property specifies the IP address (IP number in dotted internet format) or Domain Name of the OFTP server. It is set before a connection is attempted and cannot be changed once a connection is in progress.

If the remote_host property is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated and upon successful termination of the request, the remote_host property is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.

If the class is configured to use a *SOCKS* firewall, the value assigned to this property may be preceded with an "*". If this is the case, the host name is passed to the firewall unresolved and the firewall performs the DNS resolution.

# remote_port property

The port for the OFTP service (default is 3305).

## Syntax

```text
def get_remote_port() -> int: ...
def set_remote_port(value: int) -> None: ...
remote_port = property(get_remote_port, set_remote_port)
```

## Default Value

3305

## Remarks

A valid port number (a value between 1 and 65535) is required for the connection to take place. The property must be set before a connection is attempted and cannot be changed once a connection is established. Any attempt to change this property while connected will fail with an error.

When [use_ssl](#use_ssl-property) is set to True this property will be set to 6619.

# secure_authentication property

Whether or not the class should perform secure Odette authentication.

## Syntax

```text
def get_secure_authentication() -> bool: ...
def set_secure_authentication(value: bool) -> None: ...
secure_authentication = property(get_secure_authentication, set_secure_authentication)
```

## Default Value

FALSE

## Remarks

If true, the class will perform secure authentication when connecting to the server. The secure authentication consists of encrypting and decrypting data sent to and from the server, and verifying that this occurred successfully. Secure authentication may be performed in plaintext or SSL mode.

Both certificate and recipient_cert properties must be populated when this property is set to true.

This is only valid for version 2.0 of the protocol.

# server_password property

The server's password.

## Syntax

```text
def get_server_password() -> str: ...
def set_server_password(value: str) -> None: ...
server_password = property(get_server_password, set_server_password)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The password assigned to the server in the bilateral agreement. This property must be a string of no more than 8 characters long.

# server_sfid_code property

Server's SFID code.

## Syntax

```text
def get_server_sfid_code() -> str: ...
def set_server_sfid_code(value: str) -> None: ...
server_sfid_code = property(get_server_sfid_code, set_server_sfid_code)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The SFID code identifies the origin or destination party that is sending or receiving a file, while the SSID code identifies the party that a session is established with. If the SFID and SSID codes do not match, then the party the session is established with is acting as an intermediary, and the party identified by the SFID code is either the origin or final destination.

When acting as an intermediary the component will not perform any security services (i.e. sign, verify, encrypt, decrypt). Security services are to be performed by the origin or destination only. Data should simply be passed along by an intermediary.

# server_ssid_code property

The server's SSID code.

## Syntax

```text
def get_server_ssid_code() -> str: ...
def set_server_ssid_code(value: str) -> None: ...
server_ssid_code = property(get_server_ssid_code, set_server_ssid_code)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The identification code of the server. This code may be less than, but no more than 25 characters long. Generally, SSID codes have the following format as specified in RFC 2204 that is based on ISO 6523:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| Code Identifier | 'O' - Indicates ODETTE assigned the Organization Identifier. Other values can be used for non-ODETTE codes. NOTE: This field is a fixed length of 1 character. |
| International Code | A code forming part of the Organization Identifier. NOTE: This field may be of variable length up to 4 characters long. |
| Organization Code | A code forming part of the Organization Identifier. This field may contain the letters A to Z, the digits 0 to 9, and space and hyphen characters. NOTE: This field may be of variable length up to 14 characters long. |
| Computer Sub-Address | A locally assigned address which uniquely identifies a system within an organization (defined by an Organization Identifier). NOTE: This field may be of variable length up to 6 characters long. |

## Syntax

```text
def get_signed_receipt() -> bool: ...
def set_signed_receipt(value: bool) -> None: ...
signed_receipt = property(get_signed_receipt, set_signed_receipt)
```

## Default Value

FALSE

## Remarks

When sending a file to a trading partner, set this to true if the file receipt should be signed by the server. When this receipt is received by the class, it will be verified during processing.

NOTE: If the server does not attach the public certificate in the signed message, the server's public key must be specified in the recipient_cert property in order for verification to succeed.

# ssl_accept_server_cert_effective_date property

The date on which this certificate becomes valid.

## Syntax

```text
def get_ssl_accept_server_cert_effective_date() -> str: ...

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=example@email.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:

| Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| CN | Common Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com. |
| O | Organization |
| OU | Organizational Unit |
| L | Locality |
| S | State |
| C | Country |

# timeout property

This property includes the timeout for the class.

## Syntax

```text
def get_timeout() -> int: ...
def set_timeout(value: int) -> None: ...
timeout = property(get_timeout, set_timeout)
```

## Default Value

60

## Remarks

If the timeout property is set to 0, all operations return immediately, potentially failing with a *WOULDBLOCK* error if data cannot be sent immediately.

If timeout is set to a positive value, data is sent in a blocking manner and the class will wait for the operation to complete before returning control. The class will handle any potential *WOULDBLOCK* errors internally and automatically retry the operation for a maximum of timeout seconds.

The class will use [do_events](#do_events-method) to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not freeze and remains responsive.

If timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the class fails with an error.

NOTE: By default, all timeouts are *inactivity timeouts*, that is, the timeout period is extended by timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the timeout property is 60 seconds.

# trusted_cert_version property

The certificate's version number.

## Syntax

```text
def get_trusted_cert_version(trusted_cert_index: int) -> str: ...
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The certificate's version number. The possible values are the strings "V1", "V2", and "V3".

The *trusted_cert_index* parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the [trusted_cert_count](#trusted_cert_count-property) property.

This property is read-only.

# use_ssl property

Use SSL to access the RemoteHost .

## Syntax

```text
def get_use_ssl() -> bool: ...
def set_use_ssl(value: bool) -> None: ...
use_ssl = property(get_use_ssl, set_use_ssl)
```

## Default Value

FALSE

## Remarks

Use this property to determine whether the class uses SSL to connect with the [remote_host](#remote_host-property).

This property is only valid when using version 2.0 of the protocol.

Note: Setting this property to True will set [remote_port](#remote_port-property) to 6619.

# version property

Which version of the OFTP protocol the class is using.

## Syntax

```text
def get_version() -> int: ...
def set_version(value: int) -> None: ...
version = property(get_version, set_version)
```

## Possible Values

```text
0   # Ver121   # Ver132   # Ver143   # Ver20
```

## Default Value

3

## Remarks

This property specifies which version of the OFTP protocol to use. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (oftpVer12) | 1.2 |
| 1 (oftpVer13) | 1.3 |
| 2 (oftpVer14) | 1.4 |
| 3 (oftpVer20 - default) | 2.0 |

 The default value is oftpVer20 (Version 2.0).

Note: Version 2.0 (oftpVer20) of the protocol must be used when using security functions. The following properties are only applicable when using Version 2.0:

- [use_ssl](#use_ssl-property)
- [secure_authentication](#secure_authentication-property)
- [virtual_file_security_level](#virtual_file_security_level-property)
- [compress](#compress-property)

virtual_file_date = property(get_virtual_file_date, set_virtual_file_date)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Set this to the date/time stamp for the virtual file before sending. If this is not set when sending a file, the current date/time will be used. This property will accept various date formats, but will return the following format only: "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss".

Supported date formats:

- ddd, d MMM yy HH:mm:ss zzz
- ddd, d MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss zzz
- d MMM yy HH:mm:ss zzz

- ddd, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss 'GMT'
- dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy h:mm:ss tt
- dddd, MMMM dd yyyy h:mm tt
- yyMMddHHmmssZ
- yyyyMMddHHmmssZ
- yyMMddHHmmsszzzz
- yyyyMMddHHmmsszzzz
- yyyyMMddHHmmssffff
- MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss

# virtual_file_format property

The structure of the outgoing file.

## Syntax

```text
def get_virtual_file_format() -> int: ...
def set_virtual_file_format(value: int) -> None: ...
virtual_file_format = property(get_virtual_file_format, set_virtual_file_format)
```

## Possible Values

```text
0   # Unstructured1   # Text2   # Fixed3   # Variable
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

The following values are valid file formats for outgoing virtual files:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (Unstructured - default) | The outgoing file is binary and has not structure. There are no records in this type of file. |
| 1 (Text) | The outgoing file is a text file that consists of lines containing no more than 2048 characters terminated by CRLF. This type contains no records. |
| 2 (Fixed) | The outgoing file is in fixed file format, which means all records are of the same length. For fixed files, the class expects the file to be in text format with each line containing the [max_record_size](#max_record_size-property) characters terminated by a CRLF. |
| 3 (Variable) | The outgoing file is a variable file format, meaning all records are of variable length and are no longer than [max_record_size](#max_record_size-property). When using this format, the class will parse out each record as a line terminated by CRLF. Thus, this type of file must be a text file, and must contain lines with less than [max_record_size](#max_record_size-property) characters. |

Note: When either [virtual_file_security_level](#virtual_file_security_level-property) has been set to a value other than *slNone* or [compress](#compress-property) has been set to true, all files become *ffUnstructured* except *ffVariable* files.

# virtual_file_security_level property

The level of security for the file.

## Syntax

```text
def get_virtual_file_security_level() -> int: ...
def set_virtual_file_security_level(value: int) -> None: ...
virtual_file_security_level = property(get_virtual_file_security_level, set_virtual_file_security_level)
```

## Possible Values

```text
0   # None1   # Encrypted2   # Signed3   # EncryptedAndSigned
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

When sending files, set this value to the level of security for the next virtual file to send. After receiving a file, this will be set to the level of security of the last file received.

When encrypting a file, recipient_cert must be set, and when signing a file, the certificate must be set.

The file will be processed to a temporary file before being sent.

This is only valid for version 2.0 of the protocol.

# change_direction method

Sends a Change Direction (CD) command.

## Syntax

```text
def change_direction() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This method sends a Change Direction (CD) command to the remote host when called. In normal operation this should not be used. This should only be used if a condition arises where you must manually change the speaker when communicating with the remote host.

# config method

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

## Syntax

```text
def config(configuration_string: str) -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve [configuration settings](#oftpclient-config-settings) for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the config method.

To set a configuration setting named *PROPERTY*, you must call *Config("PROPERTY=VALUE")*, where *VALUE* is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a [configuration setting](#oftpclient-config-settings), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

# connect method

This method connects to the FTP server without logging in.

## Syntax

```text
def connect() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This method establishes a connection with the [remote_host](#remote_host-property) but does not log in. In most cases, it is recommended to use the [logon](#logon-method) method, which will both establish a connection and log in to the server.

This method may be useful in cases in which it is desirable to separate the connection and logon operations, for instance, confirming that a host is available by first creating the connection.

# disconnect method

This method disconnects from the server without first logging off.

## Syntax

```text
def disconnect() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This method immediately disconnects from the server without first logging off.

In most cases, the [logoff](#logoff-method) method should be used to log off and disconnect from the server. Call the disconnect method in cases in which it is desirable to immediately disconnect without first logging off.

# do_events method

This method processes events from the internal message queue.

## Syntax

```text
def do_events() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

When do_events is called, the class processes any available events. If no events are available, it waits for a preset period of time, and then returns.

# exchange_certificate method

Exchange a certificate with the remote host.

## Syntax

```text
def exchange_certificate(certificate_store: str, certificate_exchange_type: int) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

If the remote host supports the certificate exchange feature of OFTP 2.0 this method may be used to send and/or request certificates.

The *CertificateStore* parameter specifies the location of the certificate to be exchanged. In most cases this will be the path to a .cer file on disk. If the certificate is in another format or is installed to the Windows certificate store please see [ExchangeCertStoreType](#ExchangeCertStoreType) and [ExchangeCertSubject](#ExchangeCertSubject) for more information.

The *CertificateExchangeType* parameter determines the type of request. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | Request: The class will send the certificate file specified. The remote host will respond with a certificate of it's own. The response may be in a separate session. |
| 1 | Replace: The class will send the certificate file specified. No certificate is expected in response. The certificate sent here invalidates any previous certificates the remote host has stored. |
| 2 | Deliver: The class will send the certificate file specified. This is used to respond to a certificate request. It may also be used to send new additional certificates to the remote host. This will not invalidate previous certificates the remote host has stored. |

 When the remote host sends a certificate to the class the received certificate will be provided through the [on_certificate_received](#on_certificate_received-event) event.

# import_trusted_certs method

Imports a list of trusted CA certificates.

## Syntax

```text
def import_trusted_certs() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

When import_trusted_certs is called the class will import the CA certificates from the source specified by [TrustedCertsData](#TrustedCertsData) into the trusted_certs collection.

The class will then validate the trust of certificates when they are loaded.

If trusted CA certificates are not imported no validation will occur (default).

See also [FailOnUntrustedCert](#FailOnUntrustedCert).

# interrupt method

This method interrupts the current action.

## Syntax

```text
def interrupt() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This method interrupts the current action. If you use [send_file](#send_file-method) to upload a file, the class will run synchronously until the upload is completed. This method will allow you to stop the file from uploading without disconnecting from the host.

# logoff method

Logoff from the OFTP server.

## Syntax

```text
def logoff() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Logoff from the OFTP server. If that fails, the connection is terminated by the local host.

# logon method

Logon to the OFTP RemoteHost using the current client credentials.

## Syntax

```text
def logon() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Logon to the OFTP server using the current [client_ssid_code](#client_ssid_code-property), [client_sfid_code](#client_sfid_code-property), and [client_password](#client_password-property). The component will also check the corresponding server credentials, [server_ssid_code](#server_ssid_code-property), [server_sfid_code](#server_sfid_code-property), and [server_password](#server_password-property).

# receive_files method

Receive any files queued to be sent from the server.

## Syntax

```text
def receive_files() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This method connects to the server, and receives any files the server has in its outgoing queue to this particular partner. The files are downloaded to the directory specified by the [download_directory](#download_directory-property) property.

# reset method

Resets the state of the control.

## Syntax

```text
def reset() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

**Reset** resets the state of the class. All properties will be set to their default values.

# send_end_response method

Sends an EERP/NERP asynchronously.

## Syntax

```text
def send_end_response(virtual_file_name: str, virtual_file_date: str, destination: str, originator: str, creator: str, reason_code: int, reason_text: str, file_hash: str, signature: str) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This method sends an EERP/NERP. By default the class will automatically respond with an EERP/NERP when receiving a file. To respond asynchronously instead this method may be used.

To respond asynchronously first set the *SendEndResponse* parameter of the [on_end_transfer](#on_end_transfer-event) event to False. This instructs the class to not send a response automatically. Within the [on_end_transfer](#on_end_transfer-event) event you must also save the values that are required parameters for this method. This includes *FileHash*, *VirtualFileDate*, and *VirtualFileName*. Note: [VirtualFileDateFormat](#VirtualFileDateFormat) must be set to a format that includes the necessary level of accuracy.

*Destination* should be set to the SFID of the remote host.

*Originator* should be set to the SFID of the local system. In the case that the class is being used as part of a gateway process to forward traffic to another OFTP host this may be set to the SFID of that host instead.

*Creator* should be set to the SFID of the local system.

*Signature* is only applicable if the application is acting as a routing application. In all other cases this should be set to empty string. In the case where the application is acting as a routing application the end response is being forwarded to another entity for processing. The *Signature* should be set to the value received in the [on_end_response](#on_end_response-event) event (if populated).

*ReasonCode* and *ReasonText* are used to specify error information. If *ReasonCode* is set to 0 the class will send an EERP. If *ReasonCode* is set to any non-zero value the class will send a NERP. Common values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| ReasonCode | ReasonText |
| 3 | User Code Not Known |
| 4 | Invalid Password |
| 9 | Unspecified Reason |
| 11 | Invalid FileName |
| 12 | Invalid Destination |
| 13 | Invalid Origin |
| 14 | Invalid Storage Record Format |
| 15 | Maximum Record Length Not Supported |
| 16 | File Size Too Big |
| 20 | Invalid Record Count |
| 21 | Invalid Byte Count |
| 22 | Access Method Failure |
| 23 | Duplicate File |
| 24 | File Direction Refused |
| 25 | Cipher Suite Not Supported |
| 26 | Encrypted File Not Allowed |
| 27 | Unencrypted File Not Allowed |
| 28 | Compression Not Allowed |
| 29 | Signed File Not Allowed |
| 30 | Unsigned File Not Allowed |
| 31 | File Signature Not Valid |
| 32 | File Decompression Failed |
| 33 | File Decryption Failed |
| 34 | File Processing Failed |
| 35 | Not Delivered To Recipient |
| 36 | Not Acknowledged By Recipient |
| 50 | Transmission Stopped By The Operator |
| 90 | File Size Incompatible With Recipient's Protocol Version |
| 99 | Unspecified Reason |

# send_file method

Send the specified file to the server.

## Syntax

```text
def send_file(local_file: str, virtual_file_name: str) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This method connects to the server, and uploads the specified file to the server. The *LocalFile* parameter contains the path and name of the file to send to the server. The *VirtualFileName* parameter contains the virtual file name of the file being sent. If this parameter is left as an empty string, the component will use the filename contained in the *LocalFile* parameter by default.

Note: When set_upload_stream has been called with a valid input stream, the data will be uploaded from there instead of the *LocalFile*.

# validate_cert method

Validates the certificate with private key.

## Syntax

```text
def validate_cert() -> bool: ...
```

## Remarks

This method optionally validates the certificate specified by certificate. It is not required to validate the certificate from a technical perspective, but may be desired to ensure the recipient's certificate is valid and issued by a trusted authority.

Before calling this method call [import_trusted_certs](#import_trusted_certs-method) to load the trusted certification information.

When this method is called the class:

- Validates the certificate has not expired
- Validates the certificate was issued by a CA in the trusted_certs collection. If the certificate is self-signed this step is skipped.
- Validates the certificate has not been revoked. Note that the revocation check will only make use of the CRL distribution point identified in the certificate's extension. If the certificate does not contain a CRL distribution point extension this step is skipped.

# validate_recipient_cert method

Validates the recipient certificate.

## Syntax

```text
def validate_recipient_cert() -> bool: ...
```

## Remarks

This method optionally validates the certificate specified by recipient_cert. It is not required to validate the certificate from a technical perspective, but may be desired to ensure the recipient's certificate is valid and issued by a trusted authority.

Before calling this method call [import_trusted_certs](#import_trusted_certs-method) to load the trusted certification information.

When this method is called the class:

- Validates the certificate has not expired
- Validates the certificate was issued by a CA in the trusted_certs collection. If the certificate is self-signed this step is skipped.
- Validates the certificate has not been revoked. Note that the revocation check will only make use of the CRL distribution point identified in the certificate's extension. If the certificate does not contain a CRL distribution point extension this step is skipped.

# on_accept_file event

Fired when the client receives a file.

## Syntax

```text
class OFTPClientAcceptFileEventParams(object):
  @property
  def virtual_file_name() -> str: ...

  @property
  def virtual_file_date() -> str: ...

  @property

def on_accept_file() -> Callable[[OFTPClientAcceptFileEventParams], None]: ...
@on_accept_file.setter
def on_accept_file(event_hook: Callable[[OFTPClientAcceptFileEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event controls the behavior when the client receives a file.

*VirtualFileName* holds the name of the file being received.

*VirtualFileDate* holds the date associated with the file in the format specified by [VirtualFileDateFormat](#VirtualFileDateFormat). The default value is "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss".

*Destination* identifies the receiver (SFID) code in the send file request. If the file was intended for this server this will match the value in [server_sfid_code](#server_sfid_code-property)

*Originator* identifies the sender (SFID) code in the send file request.

*Accept* is true by default, and must be set to False in order to reject the file.

*Filename* will be populated with the full path and filename that will be written. It may be changed within this event to specify a new location. The Filename is determined by combining the path specified in [oftp_connection_download_directory](#OFTPClient_p_OFTPConnectionDownloadDirectory) and the name received from the client.

*Overwrite* is false by default, but may be set to true to overwrite existing files on disk.

*ErrorCode* controls the error returned to the client when *Accept* is set to False. If this is not set the class will use a value of 99 to indicate a general error.

*ErrorDescription* may also be set to include an error message. If this is not set the class will automatically include an error message based on the *ErrorCode* specified. Common error codes and their corresponding error messages are listed below.

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| ErrorCode | ErrorMessage |
| 1 | Invalid filename. |
| 2 | Invalid destination. |
| 3 | Invalid origin. |

# on_certificate_received event

Fired when a certificate is received from the remote host.

## Syntax

```text
class OFTPClientCertificateReceivedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def certificate_file_name() -> str: ...

  @property
  def certificate_exchange_type() -> int: ...

# In class OFTPClient:
@property
def on_certificate_received() -> Callable[[OFTPClientCertificateReceivedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_certificate_received.setter
def on_certificate_received(event_hook: Callable[[OFTPClientCertificateReceivedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event provides information about the certificate file that was sent by the remote host.

When the remote host sends a certificate using the Certificate Exchange feature of OFTP 2.0, this event provides information about it. The certificate file will be written to the [download_directory](#download_directory-property). After the file is written to [download_directory](#download_directory-property) this event will fire.

The *CertificateFilename* parameter holds the filename of the received certificate.

The *CertificateExchangeType* parameter identifies the type of request associated with the certificate. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | Request: The class received a certificate and request from the remote host. Respond using the [exchange_certificate](#exchange_certificate-method) method using a CertificateExchangeType of 3 (Deliver). The response may be in a separate session. |
| 1 | Replace: The class received a certificate from the remote host. No response is expected. The certificate received here invalidates any previously stored certificates for this configuration. |
| 2 | Deliver: The class received a certificate from the remote host. This is either a response to a certificate request, or a new additional certificates from the remote host. This will not invalidate previous certificates stored for this configuration. |

# on_end_response event

Fired every time an end response is received from the server.

## Syntax

```text
class OFTPClientEndResponseEventParams(object):
  @property
  def virtual_file_name() -> str: ...

  @property
  def virtual_file_date() -> str: ...

  @property
  def destination() -> str: ...

  @property
  def originator() -> str: ...

  @property
  def creator() -> str: ...

  @property
  def reason_code() -> int: ...

  @property
  def reason_text() -> str: ...

  @property
  def file_hash() -> str: ...
  @file_hash.setter
  def file_hash(value) -> None: ...

  @property
  def signature() -> str: ...

  @property
  def direction() -> int: ...

# In class OFTPClient:
@property
def on_end_response() -> Callable[[OFTPClientEndResponseEventParams], None]: ...
@on_end_response.setter
def on_end_response(event_hook: Callable[[OFTPClientEndResponseEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event contains information received from an either an End-To-End Response or a Negative End Response received from the server.

An End-To-End Response will not contain values for the *ReasonCode*, *ReasonText*, or *Creator* parameters.

*VirtualFileName* specifies the name of the file.

*VirtualFileDate* holds the VirtualFileDate value in the format specified by [VirtualFileDateFormat](#VirtualFileDateFormat). The default value is "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss".

*Destination* is the SFID of the destination system (this class).

*Originator* identifies the system that originated the end response. This is typically the same as *Creator* and holds the remote system's SFID.

*Creator* is the SFID of the remote system.

*Direction* specifies whether the end response is being received or sent. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | Received |
| 1 | Sent |

 By default the class will only fire this event for received end responses. To configure the class to fire the event for both send and received end responses set [FireEndResponseOnSend](#FireEndResponseOnSend) to True.

*FileHash* is populated if the OFTP Version is 2.0 and a signed receipt was originally requested. FileHash may also be specified with the expected value in the case where an asynchronous EndResponse is received. The expected value may be obtained from the [on_end_transfer](#on_end_transfer-event) event when initially sending the file.

*Signature* is only applicable when the OFTP version is 2.0 and the application is acting as a routing application where the end response will be forwarded on to another entity. In this case *Signature* will be populated if the end response is signed. This should be stored and supplied when forwarding the response with the [send_end_response](#send_end_response-method) method.

*ReasonCode* and *ReasonText* identify the error if a Negative End Response (NERP) was received. A value of 0 indicates there was no an error and the response is an End-To-End Response (EERP). Common values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| ReasonCode | ReasonText |
| 3 | User Code Not Known |
| 4 | Invalid Password |
| 9 | Unspecified Reason |
| 11 | Invalid FileName |
| 12 | Invalid Destination |
| 13 | Invalid Origin |
| 14 | Invalid Storage Record Format |
| 15 | Maximum Record Length Not Supported |
| 16 | File Size Too Big |

| 31 | File Signature Not Valid |
| 32 | File Decompression Failed |
| 33 | File Decryption Failed |
| 34 | File Processing Failed |
| 35 | Not Delivered To Recipient |
| 36 | Not Acknowledged By Recipient |
| 50 | Transmission Stopped By The Operator |
| 90 | File Size Incompatible With Recipient's Protocol Version |
| 99 | Unspecified Reason |

# on_end_transfer event

Fired when a file finishes transferring.

```

## Remarks

The on_end_transfer event is fired when a file is sent or received by the class.

The *FileSize* parameter gives the size of the file that was sent or received.

The *Direction* parameter shows whether the client or the server is sending the data.

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (Client) | The file originated from the client. |
| 1 (Server) | The file originated from the server. |

*VirtualFileName* holds the filename.

*VirtualFileDate* holds the date associated with the file in the format specified by [VirtualFileDateFormat](#VirtualFileDateFormat). The default value is "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss".

*Originator* identifies the sender (SFID) code in the send file request.

*Destination* identifies the receiver (SFID) code in the send file request.

*SendEndResponse* indicates whether the EERP/NERP for this request should be sent synchronously or asynchronously. When this parameter is True (default) the class will automatically respond with an EERP/NERP synchronously. To respond asynchronously set this parameter to False. You may then use the [send_end_response](#send_end_response-method) method to send the response at a later time. See [send_end_response](#send_end_response-method) for more details. Note: [VirtualFileDateFormat](#VirtualFileDateFormat) must be set to a format that includes the necessary level of accuracy.

*FileHash* holds the hash of the file being transmitted. This is only applicable when the OFTP version is 2.0 and the sender requested a signed receipt. When receiving files this value should be saved if you wish to respond asynchronously using [send_end_response](#send_end_response-method). See [send_end_response](#send_end_response-method) for more details.

*LocalFile* holds the full path to the file that will be written.

*ReasonCode* and *ReasonText* identify the error if a Negative End Response (NERP) was received. A value of 0 indicates there was no an error and the response is an End-To-End Response (EERP). Common values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| ReasonCode | ReasonText |
| 3 | User Code Not Known |
| 4 | Invalid Password |
| 9 | Unspecified Reason |
| 11 | Invalid FileName |
| 12 | Invalid Destination |
| 13 | Invalid Origin |
| 14 | Invalid Storage Record Format |
| 15 | Maximum Record Length Not Supported |
| 16 | File Size Too Big |
| 20 | Invalid Record Count |
| 21 | Invalid Byte Count |
| 22 | Access Method Failure |
| 23 | Duplicate File |
| 24 | File Direction Refused |
| 25 | Cipher Suite Not Supported |
| 26 | Encrypted File Not Allowed |
| 27 | Unencrypted File Not Allowed |
| 28 | Compression Not Allowed |
| 29 | Signed File Not Allowed |
| 30 | Unsigned File Not Allowed |
| 31 | File Signature Not Valid |
| 32 | File Decompression Failed |
| 33 | File Decryption Failed |
| 34 | File Processing Failed |
| 35 | Not Delivered To Recipient |
| 36 | Not Acknowledged By Recipient |
| 50 | Transmission Stopped By The Operator |
| 90 | File Size Incompatible With Recipient's Protocol Version |
| 99 | Unspecified Reason |

def on_pi_trail(event_hook: Callable[[OFTPClientPITrailEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event provides information about the protocol level communication between the client and server.

The *Direction* parameter specifies who sent the command.

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (Client) | The command originated from the connected client. |
| 1 (Server) | The command originated from the server. |

# on_ssl_server_authentication event

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

## Syntax

```text
class OFTPClientSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams(object):
  @property
  def cert_encoded() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def cert_subject() -> str: ...

  @property
  def cert_issuer() -> str: ...

  @property
  def status() -> str: ...

  @property
  def accept() -> bool: ...

@on_ssl_server_authentication.setter
def on_ssl_server_authentication(event_hook: Callable[[OFTPClientSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The *accept* parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

 When *accept* is False, *status* shows why the verification failed (otherwise, *status* contains the string *OK*). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the *accept* parameter to True.

# on_ssl_status event

# OFTPClient Config Settings

 The class accepts one or more of the following *configuration settings*. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the [config](#config-method) method.

### OFTPClient Config Settings

**AcceptAnySFIDCode**: Indicates that all SFID codes are acceptable.This setting controls whether the class checks the SFID codes when receiving files. When set to False (Default) and a file is received the class will check the client and server SFID codes sent by the server against the values specified in [client_sfid_code](#client_sfid_code-property) and [server_sfid_code](#server_sfid_code-property). If they do not match an error is returned. In some situations it is necessary to consider any SFID code valid. To disable checking the SFID codes sent by the server set this to True.

**AllowRetry**: Whether to send a retry indicator when rejecting a file.When the server sends a file and it is rejected for any reason, if this setting is set to True the class will send a retry indicator value to the server to specify the file may be retried later.

When set to False (default) the component will send a value indicating the server should not retry the send operation.

**CertificateType**: Specifies the type of certificate being supplied.By default the class will use the certificate set in the certificate property for all operations that require a certificate. This setting allows for different certificates to be set for specific operations. First, specify the CertificateType via this setting and then set the certificate property. For instance:

```text
component.Config("CertificateType=3");
component.Certificate = mySigningCertificate;
```

 Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (default) | All Operations |
| 1 | Session Authentication |
| 2 | Decryption |
| 3 | Signing |
| 4 | Receipt Signing |

**ConnectionType**: Specifies the type of connection that will be created.Use the [ConnectionType](#ConnectionType) setting to tell the class which type of connection to create. The default value is 0 (Both) in which the class can both send and receive files. However you can limit the class to only be able to send or receive files by specifying a value of 1 (Send Only) or 2 (Receive Only). Valid values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | Both (Default) |
| 1 | Send Only |
| 2 | Receive Only |

**CreditCount**: Specifies the credit value.This setting defines the maximum credit value to be sent in the initial connection (SSID command). The default value is 99 and the maximum value is 999. When connecting, the server will also indicate the value it wishes to use for the credit count. The smaller of the two values will be used. This setting may be queried after connecting to determine the negotiated value.

**DeleteOnError**: Whether received files are deleted when there is an error during processing.By default this value is True. When set to False and receiving a file, if the file is encrypted, signed, or compressed the file will be decrypted, verified, or decompressed. If there is an error during processing the original unprocessed file will be placed in [download_directory](#download_directory-property). In that case you may choose what to do with the file based on the error reported during processing.

When this is set to True (default) and there is an error during processing the original unprocessed file will be deleted and no files will be placed in [download_directory](#download_directory-property).

**DisconnectAfterEndSession**: Determines if the connection is closed immediately after ending the session.By default when [logoff](#logoff-method) is called the class will close the TCP connection after ending the session (the ESID command is sent). To let the other side close the connection after it has received the end session command (ESID), set this to False.

**EnforceProtocolVersion**: Requires the server to support the same OFTP version.This settings controls the behavior when the server's OFTP version is different from the requested version. During the logon process the class will supply its OFTP [version](#version-property) to the server. The server will respond with the OFTP version it is using for the connection. If the version is not the same, the action of the class depends on this setting.

When set to True, if the server's OFTP version does not match the client's [version](#version-property), the class fails with an error. When set to False (default), if the server's OFTP version does not match the client's [version](#version-property), the class will use the lowest mutually supported version.

**ExchangeBufferSize**: Specifies the data exchange buffer size in bytes.This setting defines the data exchange buffer size to be sent in the initial connection (SSID command) in bytes. The default value is 2048. When connecting, the server will also indicate the value it wishes to use for the data exchange buffer size. The smaller of the two values will be used. This setting may be queried after connecting to determine the negotiated value.

**ExchangeCertStoreType**: Specifies the store type when loading a certificate to be exchanged.This specifies the certificate store type when loading a certificate that will be sent to the remote party. This is only applicable when calling [exchange_certificate](#exchange_certificate-method). The default value is "8" which indicates the certificate will be loaded from a file on disk. When the certificate is not in a .cer format or is located in the Windows certificate store this setting should be set to the appropriate value before calling [exchange_certificate](#exchange_certificate-method).

For a list of possible values please see [cert_store_type](#cert_store_type-property). Also see [ExchangeCertSubject](#ExchangeCertSubject).

**ExchangeCertSubject**: The subject of the certificate being exchanged.This specifies the subject of the certificate being exchanged. This will be used to load the appropriate certificate when [exchange_certificate](#exchange_certificate-method) is called. This is used in conjunction with [ExchangeCertStoreType](#ExchangeCertStoreType) and is only necessary when loading a certificate from a store that may hold more than one certificate (such as a Windows certificate store).

**FailOnUntrustedCert**: Whether or not to throw an exception when untrusted certificates are used.When trusted_certs is populated the class will validate that loaded certificates were issued by a trusted CA in trusted_certs. This setting controls the behavior when an untrusted certificate is found. By default this value is True and the class will throw an exception. If this is set to False the class will fire the [on_error](#on_error-event) event but the error will not be fatal and the operation will be allowed to continue.

**FileDescription**: Additional description information sent with the file.When sending a file this setting may be set to specify additional information. There is no restriction on the type of data supplied here. It may be set to a longer filename, or simply additional text data that you wish to pass to the receiver. The data supplied will be UTF-8 encoded by the class. The maximum length is 999 bytes (after UTF-8 encoding).

**FileHashAlgorithm**: The hash algorithm to use when sending a file.The file hash algorithm specified in this setting is used to calculate the hash sent along with an outgoing file. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | sha1 |
| 1 | sha256 (Default) |
| 2 | sha512 |

**FireEndResponseOnSend**: Determines if the EndResponse event is fired for outgoing EERP and NERPs.If set to True (default) the class will fire the [on_end_response](#on_end_response-event) event for both sent and received end responses. If set to False the [on_end_response](#on_end_response-event) event will fire only for received (incoming) end responses. The *Direction* parameter of [on_end_response](#on_end_response-event) determines if the end response is being sent or received. The default value is True.

**FollowRedirects**: Determines behavior when importing trusted certificates and a HTTP redirect is returned.When [TrustedCertsData](#TrustedCertsData) holds a URL and [import_trusted_certs](#import_trusted_certs-method) is called the class makes a HTTP request to obtain the trusted certificates. If the server returns a HTTP redirect this setting specifies how the class will handle it. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (default) | Never follow redirects. An exception will be thrown. |
| 1 | Always follow redirects. The redirect will be automatically followed. |
| 2 | Follow same scheme redirects. Follow the redirect if it matches the same scheme (http:// or https://). |

**FriendlyLogFormat**: Determines if a more friendly format is applied to PITrail event out.This setting effects the content of the Data parameter of the [on_pi_trail](#on_pi_trail-event) event. By default this setting is true and a format designed to be more easily read is used. If set to false the Data parameter will hold the raw unformatted protocol level content.

**LogLevel**: The level of information to log.This setting specifies the level of detail that is logged to the [on_log](#on_log-event) event. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (None) | No messages are logged. |
| 1 (Info - Default) | Informational events such as OFTP commands which are sent and received. |
| 2 (Verbose) | Detailed data such as individual packet information is logged. |
| 3 (Debug) | Debug data including all relevant sent and received bytes are logged. |

**MaskSensitiveData**: Masks passwords in logs.The default value is True. When set to True, the class will mask passwords that otherwise would appear in its logs.

**ReceiptHashAlgorithm**: The receipt hash algorithm to request when sending a file.The receipt hash algorithm specified in this setting is sent to the receiving party when a file is sent, and the receiving party should use this value when calculating the hash returned in the EERP or NERP receipt. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | sha1 (Default) |
| 1 | sha256 |
| 2 | sha512 |

**ReceivedFileDateTime**: The datetime of the file being received.This setting may be queried to obtain the datetime of the received file.

**ReceivedFileDescription**: Additional description information received with the file.Query this setting after receiving a file to obtain any additional information provided by the server. The data will be UTF-8 decoded by the class.

**ReceivedFileEncryptionAlg**: The encryption algorithm used for the file being received.This setting may be queried to obtain the encryption algorithm used for encryption of the file being received. The possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | 3DES (Triple Data Encryption Standard). |
| 1 | AES (Advanced Encryption Standard CBC mode with a 256-bit key). |

**ReceivedFileName**: Returns the name of the received file.This setting may be queried inside the [on_end_transfer](#on_end_transfer-event) event to obtain the name of the received file on disk. This includes the full path to the file on disk.

**ReceivedFileNameFormat**: The name format of received files.This setting specifies the format used when determining the local filename of a received file. The use of macros is supported to provide flexibility. This setting may include one or more of the following values:

- %VirtualFileName%
- %VirtualFileDate%
- %Originator%
- %Destination%
- %UserData%
- %CurrentTime%
- %GUID%

 An example value is "%VirtualFileName%_%VirtualFileDate%_%Destination%". The default value is "%VirtualFileName%".

The '%VirtualFileDate%' macro also supports date formatting through the use of an optional DateTime format string. The format of the macro with the date format string included is:

- %VirtualFileDate:CustomFormat%

 For example: "%VirtualFileDate:yyyyMMddHHmmssffff%"

 The name format of received files.This setting specifies the format used when determining the local filename of a received file. The use of macros is supported to provide flexibility. This setting may include one or more of the following values:

- %VirtualFileName%
- %VirtualFileDate%
- %Originator%
- %Destination%
- %UserData%
- %CurrentTime%
- %GUID%

 An example value is "%VirtualFileName%_%VirtualFileDate%_%Destination%". The default value is "%VirtualFileName%".

The '%VirtualFileDate%' macro also supports date formatting through the use of an optional DateTime format string. The format of the macro with the date format string included is:

- %VirtualFileDate:CustomFormat%

 For example: "%VirtualFileDate:yyyyMMddHHmmssffff%"

**ReceivedFileNameFormat**: The name format of received files.This setting specifies the format used when determining the local filename of a received file. The use of macros is supported to provide flexibility. This setting may include one or more of the following values:

- %VirtualFileName%
- %VirtualFileDate%
- %Originator%
- %Destination%
- %UserData%
- %CurrentTime%
- %GUID%

 An example value is "%VirtualFileName%_%VirtualFileDate%_%Destination%". The default value is "%VirtualFileName%".

The '%VirtualFileDate%' macro also supports date formatting through the use of an optional DateTime format string. The format of the macro with the date format string included is:

- %VirtualFileDate:CustomFormat%

 For example: "%VirtualFileDate:yyyyMMddHHmmssffff%"

 The name format of received files.This setting specifies the format used when determining the local filename of a received file. The use of macros is supported to provide flexibility. This setting may include one or more of the following values:

- %VirtualFileName%
- %VirtualFileDate%
- %Originator%
- %Destination%
- %UserData%
- %CurrentTime%
- %GUID%

 An example value is "%VirtualFileName%_%VirtualFileDate%_%Destination%". The default value is "%VirtualFileName%".

The '%VirtualFileDate%' macro also supports date formatting through the use of an optional DateTime format string. The format of the macro with the date format string included is:

- %VirtualFileDate:CustomFormat%

 For example: "%VirtualFileDate:yyyyMMddHHmmssffff%"

**RecipientCertificateType**: Specifies the type of recipient certificate being supplied.By default the class will use the certificate set in the recipient_cert property for all operations that require a certificate. This setting allows for different certificates to be set for specific operations. First, specify the RecipientCertificateType via this setting and then set the recipient_cert property. For instance:

```text
component.Config("RecipientCertificateType=3");
component.RecipientCert = mySignatureVerificationCertificate;
```

 Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (default) | All Operations |
| 1 | Session Authentication |
| 2 | Encryption |
| 3 | Signature Verification |
| 4 | Receipt Signature Verification |

**Retry**: Indicates whether the recipient allows the send to be retried.When sending files the recipient may reject the file for a number of reasons. The recipient may indicate that the operation can be re-attempted later. Query this setting after a send attempt was rejected to determine if the recipient allows retries. This setting will return either True or False.

**SendCDAfterEFPA**: Specifies whether a CD is always sent after receiving an EFPA.When sending a file the recipient will respond with an EFPA once the file is received. Within this response is an indicator which tells the sender whether to issue a CD (Change Direction) command. The indicator is read by the class and a CD command is sent if requested. If a CD is not requested then no CD is sent.

When set to True, this overrides the default behavior and will always send a CD command regardless of whether the indicator is set in the EFPA.

This should only be set if there is a specific reason to do so. In most cases it is not necessary.

**TempPath**: The path of a directory where temporary files will be created.Under certain conditions, the class will create temporary files before processing a file. The location of the temporary files is determined by this setting. Temporary files are created if any of the following conditions are true.

- [compress](#compress-property) is true
- [virtual_file_security_level](#virtual_file_security_level-property) is set to slEncrypted
- [virtual_file_security_level](#virtual_file_security_level-property) is set to slSigned
- [virtual_file_security_level](#virtual_file_security_level-property) is set to slEncryptedAndSigned

Note that [virtual_file_security_level](#virtual_file_security_level-property) is only applicable when [version](#version-property) is set to oftpVer20.

**TrustedCertsData**: Specifies the source to be used when importing trusted certificates.When [import_trusted_certs](#import_trusted_certs-method) is called it will attempt to import certificates from the location specified here. By default this is the URL provided by Odette (http://www.odette.org/TSL/TSL_OFTP2.XML). This is the live list of CA certificates hosted by Odette. This may also be set to an absolute file path to load certificates from an offline source, or a string value containing the trusted CA certificates.

**VirtualFileDateFormat**: The DateTime format of received files.This setting specifies the DateTime format used by the class when reporting the VirtualFileDate of received files. The default format is "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss".

When using OFTP v2.0 If the class is configured to respond to EERP and NERP messages asynchronously this should be set to the value "yyyyMMddHHmmssffff" or a similar format that includes the same level of accuracy. This is required to ensure that when calling [send_end_response](#send_end_response-method) the value saved from within the [on_end_transfer](#on_end_transfer-event) event has the necessary data when sending a response.

### Base Config Settings

**BuildInfo**: Information about the product's build.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

**CodePage**: The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).

The following is a list of valid code page identifiers:

**LicenseInfo**: Information about the current license.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a class is using. It will return the following information:

- Product: The product the license is for.
- Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
- License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
- License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
- Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.

**MaskSensitiveData**: Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to *True* to mask sensitive data. The default is *True*.

**ProcessIdleEvents**: Whether the class uses its internal event loop to process events when the main thread is idle.If set to False, the class will not fire internal idle events. Set this to False to use the class in a background thread on Mac OS. By default, this setting is True.

**SelectWaitMillis**: The length of time in milliseconds the class will wait when DoEvents is called if there are no events to process.If there are no events to process when [do_events](#do_events-method) is called, the class will wait for the amount of time specified here before returning. The default value is 20.

**UseFIPSCompliantAPI**: Tells the class whether or not to use FIPS certified APIs.When set to *True*, the class will utilize the underlying operating system's certified APIs. Java editions, regardless of OS, utilize Bouncy Castle Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS), while all other Windows editions make use of Microsoft security libraries.

FIPS mode can be enabled by setting the *UseFIPSCompliantAPI* configuration setting to *True*. This is a static setting that applies to all instances of all classes of the toolkit within the process. It is recommended to enable or disable this setting once before the component has been used to establish a connection. Enabling FIPS while an instance of the component is active and connected may result in unexpected behavior.

For more details, please see the [FIPS 140-2 Compliance](https://www.nsoftware.com/kb/articles/fips.rst) article.

NOTE: This setting is applicable only on Windows.

NOTE: Enabling FIPS compliance requires a special license; please contact [sales@nsoftware.com](mailto:sales@nsoftware.com) for details.

**UseInternalSecurityAPI**: Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation. When set to *False*, the class will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to *True* tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

 On Windows, this setting is set to *False* by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to *True* by default.

 To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the [OpenSSL Notes](platforms.md) section.
