# Struct ipworksssl::REST

The REST Struct can be used to retrieve XML documents from the World Wide Web.

## Syntax

```text
ipworksssl::REST
```

## Remarks

The REST Struct supports both plaintext and Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) connections. When connecting over Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) the [on_ssl_server_authentication](#on_ssl_server_authentication-event-rest-struct) event allows you to check the server identity and other security attributes. The [on_ssl_status](#on_ssl_status-event-rest-struct) event provides information about the SSL handshake. Additional SSL-related settings are also supported through the [config](#config-method-rest-struct) method.

The REST Struct implements a standard REST client with the added option of SSL security.

The struct contains a number of properties that map directly to HTTP request headers. All XML data received are parsed by the component and are provided to the user through properties, such as [xpath](#xpath-property-rest-struct), [xelement](#xelement-property-rest-struct), and [xtext](#xtext-property-rest-struct), which allow for traversal of the document structure. The [on_header](#on_header-event-rest-struct) event will provide the HTTP headers as returned by the server.

To receive a document, call the [get](#get-method-rest-struct) method with the URL to retrieve the specified resource in the *URL* parameter. The struct will automatically parse the XML data, depending on the content type that is returned. Call the [delete](#delete-method-rest-struct) method to delete a resource specified by the *URL* parameter.

The [post](#post-method-rest-struct), [put](#put-method-rest-struct), and [patch](#patch-method-rest-struct) methods are used to create and update resources. [post](#post-method-rest-struct) is commonly used to both create and update resources; however, each service may have its own requirements. To send data to the server, set [post_data](#post_data-property-rest-struct) and call the [post](#post-method-rest-struct), [put](#put-method-rest-struct), or [patch](#patch-method-rest-struct) method.

To add authorization credentials to an outgoing request, you should specify the [user](#user-property-rest-struct) and [password](#password-property-rest-struct) properties. The REST Struct supports basic, digest, and NTLM authentication through the [auth_scheme](#auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) property.

### Object Lifetime

 The *new()* method returns a mutable reference to a struct instance. The object itself is kept in the global list maintained by IPWorksSSL. Due to this, the REST struct cannot be disposed of automatically. Please, call the *dispose(&mut; self)* method of REST when you have finished using the instance.

# accept property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This property includes a list of acceptable MIME types for the request.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn accept(&self ) -> Result<String, IPWorksSSLError> fn set_accept(&self, value : &str) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
fn set_accept_ref(&self, value : &String) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

If this property contains a nonempty string, an HTTP *Accept* header is added to the request.

The *Accept* header is used for content negotiation. It provides the server with a comma-separated list of MIME types that are acceptable for its response.

## Data Type

String

# authorization property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This property includes the Authorization string to be sent to the server.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn authorization(&self ) -> Result<String, IPWorksSSLError> fn set_authorization(&self, value : &str) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
fn set_authorization_ref(&self, value : &String) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

If the authorization property contains a nonempty string, an *Authorization* HTTP request header is added to the request. This header conveys Authorization information to the server.

A common use for this property is to specify OAuth authorization string.

This property is provided so that the HTTP struct can be extended with other security schemes in addition to the authorization schemes already implemented by the struct.

The [auth_scheme](#auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) property defines the authentication scheme used. In the case of HTTP Basic Authentication (default), every time [user](#user-property-rest-struct) and [password](#password-property-rest-struct) are set, they are Base64 encoded, and the result is put in the authorization property in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".

## Data Type

String

# auth_scheme property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This property specifies the authentication scheme to use when server authentication is required.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn auth_scheme(&self ) -> Result<i32, IPWorksSSLError> fn set_auth_scheme(&self, value : i32) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Possible Values

```text
0   // Basic1   // Digest2   // Proprietary3   // None4   // Ntlm5   // Negotiate6   // OAuth
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

This property will tell the struct which type of authorization to perform when the [user](#user-property-rest-struct) and [password](#password-property-rest-struct) properties are set.

This property should be set to authNone (3) when no authentication is to be performed.

By default, this property is authBasic (0), and if the [user](#user-property-rest-struct) and [password](#password-property-rest-struct) properties are set, the struct will attempt HTTP Basic Authentication. If auth_scheme is set to authDigest (1), authNtlm (4), or authNegotiate (5), then Digest, NTLM, or Windows Negotiate (Kerberos) authentication will be attempted instead.

If auth_scheme is set to authProprietary (2), then the authorization token must be supplied through the [authorization](#authorization-property-rest-struct) property.

If auth_scheme is set to authOAuth (6), then the authorization string must be supplied through the [authorization](#authorization-property-rest-struct) property.

NOTE: If you set the [authorization](#authorization-property-rest-struct) property and auth_scheme is not authProprietary or authOAuth, then the auth_scheme will be set automatically to authProprietary (2) by the struct.

For security, changing the value of this property will cause the struct to clear the values of [user](#user-property-rest-struct), [password](#password-property-rest-struct), and [Authorization](#Authorization).

## Data Type

i32

# build_dom property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

When set to true, this property creates an internal object model of the XML document.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```

## Default Value

true

## Remarks

Set build_dom to *true* when you need to browse the current document through [xpath](#xpath-property-rest-struct).

[validate](#validate-property-rest-struct) is automatically set to *true* when build_dom is set to *true*.

## Data Type

bool

# connected property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

Whether the struct is connected.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn connected(&self ) -> Result<bool, IPWorksSSLError>

fn set_content_type_ref(&self, value : &String) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

If this property contains a nonempty string, a *Content-Type* HTTP request header is added to the request. The purpose of the header is to show the contents of the data during a [post](#post-method-rest-struct) or [put](#put-method-rest-struct) to the server.

The most common example is posting of HTML form input data. In that case, this property must be set to *"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"*.

## Data Type

fn set_firewall_user_ref(&self, value : &String) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

A username if authentication is to be used when connecting through a firewall. If [firewall_host](#firewall_host-property-rest-struct) is specified, this property and the [firewall_password](#firewall_password-property-rest-struct) property are used to connect and authenticate to the given [Firewall](#Type_Firewall). If the authentication fails, the struct fails with an error.

## Data Type

String

# follow_redirects property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

Determines what happens when the server issues a redirect.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn follow_redirects(&self ) -> Result<i32, IPWorksSSLError> fn set_follow_redirects(&self, value : i32) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Possible Values

```text
0   // Never1   // Always2   // SameScheme
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

This property determines what happens when the server issues a redirect. Normally, the struct returns an error if the server responds with an "Object Moved" message. If this property is set to frAlways (1), the new [url](#url-property-rest-struct) for the object is retrieved automatically every time.

If this property is set to frSameScheme (2), the new [url](#url-property-rest-struct) is retrieved automatically only if the url_scheme is the same; otherwise, the struct fails with an error.

NOTE: Following the HTTP specification, unless this property is set to frAlways (1), automatic redirects will be performed only for *GET* or *HEAD* requests. Other methods potentially could change the conditions of the initial request and create security vulnerabilities.

Furthermore, if either the new URL server or port are different from the existing one, [user](#user-property-rest-struct) and [password](#password-property-rest-struct) are also reset to empty. If, however, this property is set to frAlways (1), the same credentials are used to connect to the new server.

A [on_redirect](#on_redirect-event-rest-struct) event is fired for every URL the product is redirected to. In the case of automatic redirections, the [on_redirect](#on_redirect-event-rest-struct) event is a good place to set properties related to the new connection (e.g., new authentication parameters).

The default value is frNever (0). In this case, redirects are never followed, and the struct fails with an error instead.

## Data Type

i32

# from property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This property includes the email address of the HTTP agent (optional).

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn from(&self ) -> Result<String, IPWorksSSLError> fn set_from(&self, value : &str) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
fn set_from_ref(&self, value : &String) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

This property contains the email address of the HTTP agent (optional). If it contains a nonempty string, an HTTP *From:* header is added to the request. This header generally gives the email address of the requester of the document.

## Data Type

String

# http_method property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This property includes the HTTP method used for the request.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn http_method(&self ) -> Result<String, IPWorksSSLError> fn set_http_method(&self, value : &str) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
fn set_http_method_ref(&self, value : &String) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

This property contains the HTTP method used for the request. If an empty string is provided, the http_method is determined automatically by the method being called. You may change it to a custom value if you require an HTTP method other than what is provided by the struct. When providing a custom value, make the request by calling the [post](#post-method-rest-struct) method.

## Data Type

String

# idle property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

The current status of the struct.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn idle(&self ) -> Result<bool, IPWorksSSLError>

This property is read-only.

## Data Type

bool

# if_modified_since property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This property includes a date determining the maximum age of the desired document.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn if_modified_since(&self ) -> Result<String, IPWorksSSLError> fn set_if_modified_since(&self, value : &str) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
fn set_if_modified_since_ref(&self, value : &String) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

If this property contains a nonempty string, an *If-Modified-Since* HTTP header is added to the request. The value of this header is used to make the HTTP request conditional: If the requested documented has not been modified since the time specified in the field, a copy of the document will not be returned from the server; instead, a 304 (not modified) response will be returned by the server and the struct fails with an error

The format of the date value for if_modified_since is detailed in the HTTP specs. An example is Sat, 29 Oct 1994 19:43:31 GMT.

## Data Type

String

# local_file property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This property includes the path to a local file for downloading. If the file exists, it is overwritten.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn local_file(&self ) -> Result<String, IPWorksSSLError> fn set_local_file(&self, value : &str) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
fn set_local_file_ref(&self, value : &String) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

If this property is empty, then the received data are provided through [transferred_data](#transferred_data-property-rest-struct) and the [on_transfer](#on_transfer-event-rest-struct) event.

## Data Type

String

# local_host property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn local_host(&self ) -> Result<String, IPWorksSSLError> fn set_local_host(&self, value : &str) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
fn set_local_host_ref(&self, value : &String) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## 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 struct initiate connections (or accept in the case of server structs) 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 struct 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.

```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

This property contains the data to post with the URL if the *POST* method is used. If this property contains a nonempty string, then if the HTTP *POST* method is used ([post](#post-method-rest-struct) method), the contents of this property are appended to the HTTP request after the HTTP headers.

An HTTP *Content-Length* header is also added to the request. Its value is the length of the string in post_data.

The most common example is posting of HTML form input data. In that case, the [content_type](#content_type-property-rest-struct) property must be set to *application/x-www-form-urlencoded*.

**Example. Performing a Post:**

```text
HTTPControl.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
HTTPControl.PostData = "firstname=Tom&lastname=Thompson&country=US"
HTTPControl.Post(myurl)
```

[proxy_auth_scheme](#proxy_auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) should be set to authNone (3) when no authentication is expected.

By default, [proxy_auth_scheme](#proxy_auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) is authBasic (0), and if the [proxy_user](#proxy_user-property-rest-struct) and [proxy_password](#proxy_password-property-rest-struct) properties are set, the struct will attempt basic authentication.

If [proxy_auth_scheme](#proxy_auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) is set to authDigest (1), digest authentication will be attempted instead.

If [proxy_auth_scheme](#proxy_auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) is set to authProprietary (2), then the authorization token will not be generated by the struct. Look at the configuration file for the struct being used to find more information about manually setting this token.

If [proxy_auth_scheme](#proxy_auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) is set to authNtlm (4), NTLM authentication will be used.

For security reasons, setting this property will clear the values of [proxy_user](#proxy_user-property-rest-struct) and [proxy_password](#proxy_password-property-rest-struct).

The [ssl_accept_server_cert_store_type](#ssl_accept_server_cert_store_type-property-rest-struct) property denotes the type of the certificate store specified by [ssl_accept_server_cert_store](#ssl_accept_server_cert_store-property-rest-struct). If the store is password-protected, specify the password in [ssl_accept_server_cert_store_password](#ssl_accept_server_cert_store_password-property-rest-struct).

[ssl_accept_server_cert_store](#ssl_accept_server_cert_store-property-rest-struct) is used in conjunction with the [ssl_accept_server_cert_subject](#ssl_accept_server_cert_subject-property-rest-struct) property to specify client certificates. If [ssl_accept_server_cert_store](#ssl_accept_server_cert_store-property-rest-struct) has a value, and [ssl_accept_server_cert_subject](#ssl_accept_server_cert_subject-property-rest-struct) or [ssl_accept_server_cert_encoded](#ssl_accept_server_cert_encoded-property-rest-struct) is set, a search for a certificate is initiated. Please see the [ssl_accept_server_cert_subject](#ssl_accept_server_cert_subject-property-rest-struct) property for details.

 Designations of certificate stores are platform dependent.

The following designations are the most common User and Machine certificate stores in Windows:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| MY | A certificate store holding personal certificates with their associated private keys. |
| CA | Certifying authority certificates. |
| ROOT | Root certificates. |

When the certificate store type is *cstPFXFile*, this property must be set to the name of the file. When the type is *cstPFXBlob*, the property must be set to the binary contents of a PFX file (i.e., PKCS#12 certificate store).

```text
0   // Automatic1   // Platform2   // Internal
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

This property specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use. In most cases the default value of *0* (Automatic) is recommended and should not be changed. When set to *0* (Automatic), the struct will select whether to use the platform implementation or the internal implementation depending on the operating system as well as the TLS version being used.

Possible values are as follows:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (sslpAutomatic - default) | Automatically selects the appropriate implementation. |
| 1 (sslpPlatform) | Uses the platform/system implementation. |
| 2 (sslpInternal) | Uses the internal implementation. |

 **Additional Notes**

In most cases using the default value (Automatic) is recommended. The struct will select a provider depending on the current platform.

When Automatic is selected, on Windows, the struct will use the platform implementation. On Linux/macOS, the struct will use the internal implementation. When TLS 1.3 is enabled via [SSLEnabledProtocols](#SSLEnabledProtocols), the struct will always try and use the platform implementation. If the platform TLS 1.3 implementation is not available, the internal implementation will be used.

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn ssl_server_cert_encoded(&self ) -> Result<Vec<u8>, IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The [ssl_server_cert_store](#ssl_server_cert_store-property-rest-struct) and [ssl_server_cert_subject](#ssl_server_cert_subject-property-rest-struct) properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

When [ssl_server_cert_encoded](#ssl_server_cert_encoded-property-rest-struct) is set, a search is initiated in the current [ssl_server_cert_store](#ssl_server_cert_store-property-rest-struct) for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, [ssl_server_cert_subject](#ssl_server_cert_subject-property-rest-struct) is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, [ssl_server_cert_subject](#ssl_server_cert_subject-property-rest-struct) is set to an empty string.

This property is read-only.

## Data Type

String

# timeout property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

The timeout for the struct.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn timeout(&self ) -> Result<i32, IPWorksSSLError> fn set_timeout(&self, value : i32) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Default Value

60

## Remarks

If the timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If timeout is set to a positive value, the struct will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The struct will use [do_events](#do_events-method-rest-struct) 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 struct 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.

## Data Type

i32

# transferred_data property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

This property defines the maximum number of bytes of data to be transferred. The default value is zero, which means there is no limit to the amount of data the struct will accumulate and parse. If this value is set to a number *n* that is greater than zero, the struct will receive only the first *n* bytes of data from the server.

## Data Type

i64

# transferred_headers property ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn user(&self ) -> Result<String, IPWorksSSLError> fn set_user(&self, value : &str) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
fn set_user_ref(&self, value : &String) ->  Option<IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

This property contains a user name if authentication is to be used. If [auth_scheme](#auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) is set to HTTP Basic Authentication, The user and [password](#password-property-rest-struct) are Base64 encoded, and the result is put in the [Authorization](#Authorization) property in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".

If [auth_scheme](#auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) is set to HTTP Digest Authentication, the user and [password](#password-property-rest-struct) properties are used to respond to the HTTP Digest Authentication challenge from the server.

If [auth_scheme](#auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) is set to NTLM, NTLM authentication will be attempted. If [auth_scheme](#auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) is set to NTLM, and user and [password](#password-property-rest-struct) are empty, the struct will attempt to authenticate using the current user's credentials.

| --- | --- |
| 'name' | A particular element name. |
| [i] | The i-th subelement of the current element. |
| .. | the parent of the current element. |

 When xpath is set to a valid path, [xelement](#xelement-property-rest-struct) points to the name of the element, with [xparent](#xparent-property-rest-struct), [xnamespace](#xnamespace-property-rest-struct), [xprefix](#xprefix-property-rest-struct), xchildren, and [xtext](#xtext-property-rest-struct) providing other properties of the element. The attributes of the current element will be contained in the attributes properties.

[build_dom](#build_dom-property-rest-struct) must be set to True before parsing the document for the xpath functionality to be available.

**Example 1. Setting XPath:**

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| Document root | RestControl.XPath = "/" |
| Specific Element | RestControl.XPath = "/root/SubElement1/SubElement2/" |
| i-th Child | RestControl.XPath = "/root/[i]" |

# attr method ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This method returns the value of the specified attribute.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn attr(&self, attr_name : &str) ->  Result<String, IPWorksSSLError>

Please refer to the xattributes properties for more information.

# config method ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn config(&self, configuration_string : &str) ->  Result<String, IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Remarks

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

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the struct, 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](#config-settings-rest-struct), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

# delete method ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This method deletes an object on the server.

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn delete(&self, url : &str) -> Result<(), IPWorksSSLError>
```

## Remarks

This method is used to delete an object at the URL specified by using the HTTP *DELETE* method. The server response text is received through the [on_transfer](#on_transfer-event-rest-struct) event, and the HTTP response headers through the [on_header](#on_header-event-rest-struct) event. If [local_file](#local_file-property-rest-struct) is not empty, the data (not the headers) are written there as well. Normally, the user should have assigned correct values to [user](#user-property-rest-struct) and [password](#password-property-rest-struct) or [Authorization](#Authorization).

# do_events method ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This method processes events from the internal message queue.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
fn do_events(&self) -> Result<(), IPWorksSSLError>

}

// RESTSetCookieEvent defines the signature of the REST SetCookie event's handler function.
pub trait RESTSetCookieEvent {
  fn on_set_cookie(&self, sender : REST, e : &mut RESTSetCookieEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> REST<'a> {
  pub fn on_set_cookie(&self) -> &'a dyn RESTSetCookieEvent;
  pub fn set_on_set_cookie(&mut self, value : &'a dyn RESTSetCookieEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

This event is fired for every *Set-Cookie:* header received from the HTTP server.

The *name* parameter contains the name of the cookie, with the corresponding value supplied in the *value* parameter.

The *expires* parameter contains an expiration time for the cookie (if provided by the server). The time format used is "Weekday, DD-Mon-YY HH:MM:SS GMT". If the server does not provide an expiration time, the *expires* parameter will be an empty string. In this case, the convention is to drop the cookie at the end of the session.

The *domain* parameter contains a domain name to limit the cookie to (if provided by the server). If the server does not provide a domain name, the *domain* parameter will be an empty string. The convention in this case is to use the server specified in the URL (url_server) as the cookie domain.

The *path* parameter contains a path name to limit the cookie to (if provided by the server). If the server does not provide a cookie path, the *path* parameter will be an empty string. The convention in this case is to use the path specified in the URL (url_path) as the cookie path.

The *secure* parameter specifies whether the cookie is secure. If the value of this parameter is True, the cookie value must be submitted only through a secure (HTTPS) connection.

# on_special_section event ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This event is fired when a special section is encountered.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// RESTSpecialSectionEventArgs carries the REST SpecialSection event's parameters.
pub struct RESTSpecialSectionEventArgs {
  fn section_id(&self) -> &String
  fn text(&self) -> &String
}

// RESTSpecialSectionEvent defines the signature of the REST SpecialSection event's handler function.
pub trait RESTSpecialSectionEvent {
  fn on_special_section(&self, sender : REST, e : &mut RESTSpecialSectionEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> REST<'a> {
  pub fn on_special_section(&self) -> &'a dyn RESTSpecialSectionEvent;
  pub fn set_on_special_section(&mut self, value : &'a dyn RESTSpecialSectionEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

The on_special_section event is fired whenever a special section (such as *<![ CDATA [ ...text... ]]>*) is found in the document.

The full text of the special section is provided by the *text* parameter, and the *section_id* parameter provides the section identifier (e.g., *CDATA*).

# on_ssl_server_authentication event ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// RESTSSLServerAuthenticationEventArgs carries the REST SSLServerAuthentication event's parameters.
pub struct RESTSSLServerAuthenticationEventArgs {
  fn cert_encoded(&self) -> &[u8]
  fn cert_subject(&self) -> &String
  fn cert_issuer(&self) -> &String
  fn status(&self) -> &String
  fn accept(&self) -> bool
  fn set_accept(&self, value : bool)
}

// RESTSSLServerAuthenticationEvent defines the signature of the REST SSLServerAuthentication event's handler function.
pub trait RESTSSLServerAuthenticationEvent {
  fn on_ssl_server_authentication(&self, sender : REST, e : &mut RESTSSLServerAuthenticationEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> REST<'a> {
  pub fn on_ssl_server_authentication(&self) -> &'a dyn RESTSSLServerAuthenticationEvent;
  pub fn set_on_ssl_server_authentication(&mut self, value : &'a dyn RESTSSLServerAuthenticationEvent);
  ...
}
```

## 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 ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// RESTSSLStatusEventArgs carries the REST SSLStatus event's parameters.
pub struct RESTSSLStatusEventArgs {
  fn message(&self) -> &String
}

// RESTSSLStatusEvent defines the signature of the REST SSLStatus event's handler function.
pub trait RESTSSLStatusEvent {
  fn on_ssl_status(&self, sender : REST, e : &mut RESTSSLStatusEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> REST<'a> {
  pub fn on_ssl_status(&self) -> &'a dyn RESTSSLStatusEvent;
  pub fn set_on_ssl_status(&mut self, value : &'a dyn RESTSSLStatusEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.

# on_start_element event ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This event is fired when a begin-element tag is encountered in the document.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// RESTStartElementEventArgs carries the REST StartElement event's parameters.
pub struct RESTStartElementEventArgs {
  fn namespace(&self) -> &String
  fn element(&self) -> &String
  fn q_name(&self) -> &String
  fn is_empty(&self) -> bool
}

// RESTStartElementEvent defines the signature of the REST StartElement event's handler function.
pub trait RESTStartElementEvent {
  fn on_start_element(&self, sender : REST, e : &mut RESTStartElementEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> REST<'a> {
  pub fn on_start_element(&self) -> &'a dyn RESTStartElementEvent;
  pub fn set_on_start_element(&mut self, value : &'a dyn RESTStartElementEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

The on_start_element event is fired when a begin-element tag is found in the document.

The element name is provided through the *element* parameter. The attribute names and values (if any) are provided through the [attr_name](#attr_name-property-rest-struct), [attr_namespace](#attr_namespace-property-rest-struct), [attr_prefix](#attr_prefix-property-rest-struct), and [attr_value](#attr_value-property-rest-struct) properties.

The *is_empty* parameter is *true* when the event corresponds to an empty element declaration.

# on_start_prefix_mapping event ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

This event is fired when entering the scope of a namespace declaration.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// RESTStartPrefixMappingEventArgs carries the REST StartPrefixMapping event's parameters.
pub struct RESTStartPrefixMappingEventArgs {
  fn prefix(&self) -> &String
  fn uri(&self) -> &String
}

// RESTStartPrefixMappingEvent defines the signature of the REST StartPrefixMapping event's handler function.
pub trait RESTStartPrefixMappingEvent {
  fn on_start_prefix_mapping(&self, sender : REST, e : &mut RESTStartPrefixMappingEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> REST<'a> {
  pub fn on_start_prefix_mapping(&self) -> &'a dyn RESTStartPrefixMappingEvent;
  pub fn set_on_start_prefix_mapping(&mut self, value : &'a dyn RESTStartPrefixMappingEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

The [on_end_prefix_mapping](#on_end_prefix_mapping-event-rest-struct) event is fired when leaving the scope of a namespace declaration.

# on_start_transfer event ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

Fired when a document starts transferring (after the headers).

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// RESTStartTransferEventArgs carries the REST StartTransfer event's parameters.
pub struct RESTStartTransferEventArgs {
  fn direction(&self) -> i32
}

// RESTStartTransferEvent defines the signature of the REST StartTransfer event's handler function.
pub trait RESTStartTransferEvent {
  fn on_start_transfer(&self, sender : REST, e : &mut RESTStartTransferEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> REST<'a> {
  pub fn on_start_transfer(&self) -> &'a dyn RESTStartTransferEvent;
  pub fn set_on_start_transfer(&mut self, value : &'a dyn RESTStartTransferEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

This event is fired first when the client starts sending data to the server (in a *POST* or *PUT* request) and then when the document text starts transferring from the server to the local host.

The *Direction* parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

# on_status event ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

Fired when the HTTP status line is received from the server.

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// RESTStatusEventArgs carries the REST Status event's parameters.
pub struct RESTStatusEventArgs {
  fn http_version(&self) -> &String
  fn status_code(&self) -> i32
  fn description(&self) -> &String
}

// RESTStatusEvent defines the signature of the REST Status event's handler function.
pub trait RESTStatusEvent {
  fn on_status(&self, sender : REST, e : &mut RESTStatusEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> REST<'a> {
  pub fn on_status(&self) -> &'a dyn RESTStatusEvent;
  pub fn set_on_status(&mut self, value : &'a dyn RESTStatusEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

*http_version* is a string containing the HTTP version string as returned from the server (e.g., "1.1").

*status_code* contains the HTTP status code (e.g., 200), and *description* the associated message returned by the server (e.g., "OK").

# on_transfer event ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

Fired while a document transfers (delivers document).

## Syntax

*Rust Syntax*

```text
// RESTTransferEventArgs carries the REST Transfer event's parameters.
pub struct RESTTransferEventArgs {
  fn direction(&self) -> i32
  fn bytes_transferred(&self) -> i64
  fn percent_done(&self) -> i32
  fn text(&self) -> &[u8]
}

// RESTTransferEvent defines the signature of the REST Transfer event's handler function.
pub trait RESTTransferEvent {
  fn on_transfer(&self, sender : REST, e : &mut RESTTransferEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> REST<'a> {
  pub fn on_transfer(&self) -> &'a dyn RESTTransferEvent;
  pub fn set_on_transfer(&mut self, value : &'a dyn RESTTransferEvent);
  ...
}
```

## Remarks

The *text* parameter contains the portion of the document text being received. It is empty if data are being posted to the server.

The *bytes_transferred* parameter contains the number of bytes transferred in this *direction* since the beginning of the document text (excluding HTTP response headers).

The *Direction* parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

The *PercentDone* parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If *PercentDone* can not be calculated the value will be -1.

NOTE: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.

# Config Settings ([REST](#struct-ipworkssslrest) Struct)

 The struct 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 struct, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the [config](#config-method-rest-struct) method.

### REST Config Settings

**CacheContent**: If true, the original XML is saved in a buffer.This configuration setting controls whether or not the struct retains the entire original XML in a buffer. This is used to retain the original XML as opposed to returning generated XML after parsing. The default value is *true*.

**From**: Allows the specification of the email address of the HTTP agent.When this configuration setting is set, an HTTP *From:* header is added to the request. This header generally gives the email address of the requester of the document.

NOTE: This functionality is available only in Java and .NET.

**StringProcessingOptions**: Defines options to use when processing string values.This configuration setting determines what additional processing is performed on string values during parsing. By default, no additional processing is performed and the string is returned as is from the document. Possible values are as follows:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (none - default) | No additional processing is performed. |
| 1 (unquote) | Strings are unquoted (JSON only; this is the same as 0 for XML). |
| 2 (unescape) | Any escaped sequences are unescaped. |
| 3 (unquote and unescape) | Values are both unquoted and unescaped (this is the same as 2 for XML). |

 For instance, given the JSON element *"example": "value\ntest"* or the XML element *<flavor>cookies & cream</flavor>*, the following table shows the resulting [xtext](#xtext-property-rest-struct) value based on the current setting:

```text
"value\ntest"
```

```text
cookies & cream
```

```text
value\ntest
```

```text
cookies & cream
```

```text
"value
test"
```

```text
value
test
```

```text
cookies & cream
```

| StringProcessingOption | JSON Output | XML Output |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 0 (none) |  |  |
| 1 (unquote) |  |  |
| 2 (unescape) |  | cookies & cream |
| 3 (unquote and unescape) |  |  |

NOTE: If [build_dom](#build_dom-property-rest-struct) is *True*, XML content will *always* be unescaped, regardless of this setting.

### HTTP Config Settings

**AcceptEncoding**: Used to tell the server which types of content encodings the client supports.When [AllowHTTPCompression](#AllowHTTPCompression) is True, the struct adds an *Accept-Encoding* header to the request being sent to the server. By default, this header's value is "gzip, deflate". This configuration setting allows you to change the value of the *Accept-Encoding* header. NOTE: The struct only supports gzip and deflate decompression algorithms.

**AllowHTTPCompression**: This property enables HTTP compression for receiving data.This configuration setting enables HTTP compression for receiving data. When set to True (default), the struct will accept compressed data. It then will uncompress the data it has received. The struct will handle data compressed by both gzip and deflate compression algorithms.

When True, the struct adds an *Accept-Encoding* header to the outgoing request. The value for this header can be controlled by the [AcceptEncoding](#AcceptEncoding) configuration setting. The default value for this header is "gzip, deflate".

The default value is True.

**AllowHTTPFallback**: Whether HTTP/2 connections are permitted to fallback to HTTP/1.1.This configuration setting controls whether HTTP/2 connections are permitted to fall back to HTTP/1.1 when the server does not support HTTP/2. This setting is applicable only when http_version is set to "2.0".

If set to True (default), the struct will automatically use HTTP/1.1 if the server does not support HTTP/2. If set to False, the struct fails with an error if the server does not support HTTP/2.

The default value is True.

**Append**: Whether to append data to LocalFile.This configuration setting determines whether data will be appended when writing to [local_file](#local_file-property-rest-struct). When set to True, downloaded data will be appended to [local_file](#local_file-property-rest-struct). This may be used in conjunction with range to resume a failed download. This is applicable only when [local_file](#local_file-property-rest-struct) is set. The default value is False.

**Authorization**: The Authorization string to be sent to the server.If the [Authorization](#Authorization) property contains a nonempty string, an *Authorization* HTTP request header is added to the request. This header conveys Authorization information to the server.

This property is provided so that the HTTP struct can be extended with other security schemes in addition to the authorization schemes already implemented by the struct.

The [auth_scheme](#auth_scheme-property-rest-struct) property defines the authentication scheme used. In the case of HTTP Basic Authentication (default), every time [user](#user-property-rest-struct) and [password](#password-property-rest-struct) are set, they are Base64 encoded, and the result is put in the [authorization](#authorization-property-rest-struct) property in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".

**BytesTransferred**: Contains the number of bytes transferred in the response data.This configuration setting returns the raw number of bytes from the HTTP response data, before the component processes the data, whether it is chunked or compressed. This returns the same value as the [on_transfer](#on_transfer-event-rest-struct) event, by [BytesTransferred](#BytesTransferred).

**ChunkSize**: Specifies the chunk size in bytes when using chunked encoding.This is applicable only when [UseChunkedEncoding](#UseChunkedEncoding) is True. This setting specifies the chunk size in bytes to be used when posting data. The default value is 16384.

**CompressHTTPRequest**: Set to true to compress the body of a PUT or POST request.If set to True, the body of a *PUT* or *POST* request will be compressed into gzip format before sending the request. The "Content-Encoding" header is also added to the outgoing request.

The default value is False.

**EncodeURL**: If set to True the URL will be encoded by the struct.If set to True, the URL passed to the struct will be URL encoded. The default value is False.

**FollowRedirects**: Determines what happens when the server issues a redirect.This option determines what happens when the server issues a redirect. Normally, the struct returns an error if the server responds with an "Object Moved" message. If this property is set to 1 (always), the new [url](#url-property-rest-struct) for the object is retrieved automatically every time.

If this property is set to 2 (Same Scheme), the new [url](#url-property-rest-struct) is retrieved automatically only if the URL Scheme is the same; otherwise, the struct fails with an error.

**Note:** Following the HTTP specification, unless this option is set to 1 (Always), automatic redirects will be performed only for *GET* or *HEAD* requests. Other methods potentially could change the conditions of the initial request and create security vulnerabilities.

Furthermore, if either the new URL server or port are different from the existing one, [user](#user-property-rest-struct) and [password](#password-property-rest-struct) are also reset to empty, unless this property is set to 1 (Always), in which case the same credentials are used to connect to the new server.

A [on_redirect](#on_redirect-event-rest-struct) event is fired for every URL the product is redirected to. In the case of automatic redirections, the [on_redirect](#on_redirect-event-rest-struct) event is a good place to set properties related to the new connection (e.g., new authentication parameters).

The default value is 0 (Never). In this case, redirects are never followed, and the struct fails with an error instead.

Following are the valid options:

- 0 - Never
- 1 - Always
- 2 - Same Scheme

**GetOn302Redirect**: If set to True the struct will perform a GET on the new location.The default value is False. If set to True, the struct will perform a *GET* on the new location. Otherwise, it will use the same HTTP method again.

**HTTP2HeadersWithoutIndexing**: HTTP2 headers that should not update the dynamic header table with incremental indexing.HTTP/2 servers maintain a dynamic table of headers and values seen over the course of a connection. Typically, these headers are inserted into the table through incremental indexing (also known as HPACK, defined in RFC 7541). To tell the component not to use incremental indexing for certain headers, and thus not update the dynamic table, set this configuration option to a comma-delimited list of the header names.

**HTTPVersion**: The version of HTTP used by the struct.This property specifies the HTTP version used by the struct. Possible values are as follows:

- "1.0"
- "1.1" (default)
- "2.0"
- "3.0"

When using HTTP/2 ("2.0") or HTTP/3 ("3.0"), additional restrictions apply. Please see the following notes for details.

**HTTP/2 Notes**

When using HTTP/2, a secure Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/2 will result in an error.

If the server does not support HTTP/2, the struct will automatically use HTTP/1.1 instead. This is done to provide compatibility without the need for any additional settings. To see which version was used, check [NegotiatedHTTPVersion](#NegotiatedHTTPVersion) after calling a method. The [AllowHTTPFallback](#AllowHTTPFallback) setting controls whether this behavior is allowed (default) or disallowed.

**HTTP/3 Notes**

HTTP/3 is supported only in .NET and Java.

When using HTTP/3, a secure (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/3 will result in an error.

**IfModifiedSince**: A date determining the maximum age of the desired document.If this setting contains a nonempty string, an If-Modified-Since HTTP header is added to the request. The value of this header is used to make the HTTP request conditional: if the requested documented has not been modified since the time specified in the field, a copy of the document will not be returned from the server; instead, a 304 (not modified) response will be returned by the server and the component throws an exception

The format of the date value for IfModifiedSince is detailed in the HTTP specs. For example:

```text
Sat, 29 Oct 2017 19:43:31 GMT.
```

**KeepAlive**: Determines whether the HTTP connection is closed after completion of the request.If *true*, the component will not send the *Connection: Close* header. The absence of the Connection header indicates to the server that HTTP persistent connections should be used if supported. NOTE: Not all servers support persistent connections. If *false*, the connection will be closed immediately after the server response is received.

 The default value for [KeepAlive](#KeepAlive) is *false*.

**KerberosSPN**: The Service Principal Name for the Kerberos Domain Controller.If the Service Principal Name on the Kerberos Domain Controller is not the same as the URL that you are authenticating to, the Service Principal Name should be set here.

**LogLevel**: The level of detail that is logged.This configuration setting controls the level of detail that is logged through the [on_log](#on_log-event-rest-struct) event. Possible values are as follows:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (None) | No events are logged. |
| 1 (Info - default) | Informational events are logged. |
| 2 (Verbose) | Detailed data are logged. |
| 3 (Debug) | Debug data are logged. |

The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.

The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.

The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).

**MaxRedirectAttempts**: Limits the number of redirects that are followed in a request.When [follow_redirects](#follow_redirects-property-rest-struct) is set to any value other than frNever, the struct will follow redirects until this maximum number of redirect attempts are made. The default value is 20.

**NegotiatedHTTPVersion**: The negotiated HTTP version.This configuration setting may be queried after the request is complete to indicate the HTTP version used. When http_version is set to "2.0" (if the server does not support "2.0"), then the struct will fall back to using "1.1" automatically. This setting will indicate which version was used.

**OtherHeaders**: Other headers as determined by the user (optional).This configuration setting can be set to a string of headers to be appended to the HTTP request headers.

The headers must follow the format "header: value" as described in the HTTP specifications. Header lines should be separated by CRLF (*"\r\n"*) .

Use this configuration setting with caution. If this configuration setting contains invalid headers, HTTP requests may fail.

This configuration setting is useful for extending the functionality of the struct beyond what is provided.

**ProxyAuthorization**: The authorization string to be sent to the proxy server.This is similar to the [Authorization](#Authorization) configuration setting, but is used for proxy authorization. If this configuration setting contains a nonempty string, a *Proxy-Authorization* HTTP request header is added to the request. This header conveys proxy Authorization information to the server. If [proxy_user](#proxy_user-property-rest-struct) and [proxy_password](#proxy_password-property-rest-struct) are specified, this value is calculated using the algorithm specified by [proxy_auth_scheme](#proxy_auth_scheme-property-rest-struct).

**ProxyAuthScheme**: The authorization scheme to be used for the proxy.This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

**ProxyPassword**: A password if authentication is to be used for the proxy.This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

**ProxyPort**: Port for the proxy server (default 80).This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

**ProxyServer**: Name or IP address of a proxy server (optional).This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

**ProxyUser**: A user name if authentication is to be used for the proxy.This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

**SentHeaders**: The full set of headers as sent by the client.This configuration setting returns the complete set of raw headers as sent by the client.

**StatusCode**: The status code of the last response from the server.This configuration setting contains the result code of the last response from the server.

**StatusLine**: The first line of the last response from the server.This setting contains the first line of the last response from the server. The format of the line will be *[HTTP version] [Result Code] [Description]*.

**TransferredData**: The contents of the last response from the server.This configuration setting contains the contents of the last response from the server.

**TransferredDataLimit**: The maximum number of incoming bytes to be stored by the struct.If [TransferredDataLimit](#TransferredDataLimit) is set to 0 (default), no limits are imposed. Otherwise, this reflects the maximum number of incoming bytes that can be stored by the struct.

**TransferredHeaders**: The full set of headers as received from the server.This configuration setting returns the complete set of raw headers as received from the server.

**TransferredRequest**: The full request as sent by the client.This configuration setting returns the full request as sent by the client. For performance reasons, the request is not normally saved. Set this configuration setting to ON before making a request to enable it. Following are examples of this request:

 .NET

```text
Http http = new Http();
http.Config("TransferredRequest=on");
http.PostData = "body";
http.Post("http://someserver.com");
Console.WriteLine(http.Config("TransferredRequest"));
```

 C++

```text
HTTP http;
http.Config("TransferredRequest=on");
http.SetPostData("body", 5);
http.Post("http://someserver.com");
printf("%s\r\n", http.Config("TransferredRequest"));
```

**UseChunkedEncoding**: Enables or Disables HTTP chunked encoding for transfers.If [UseChunkedEncoding](#UseChunkedEncoding) is set to True, the struct will use HTTP-chunked encoding when posting, if possible. HTTP-chunked encoding allows large files to be sent in chunks instead of all at once. If set to False, the struct will not use HTTP-chunked encoding. The default value is False.

NOTE: Some servers (such as the ASP.NET Development Server) may not support chunked encoding.

**UseIDNs**: Whether to encode hostnames to internationalized domain names.This configuration setting specifies whether hostnames containing non-ASCII characters are encoded to internationalized domain names. When set to True, if a hostname contains non-ASCII characters, it is encoded using Punycode to an IDN (internationalized domain name).

The default value is False and the hostname will always be used exactly as specified. NOTE: The [CodePage](#CodePage) setting must be set to a value capable of interpreting the specified host name. For instance, to specify UTF-8, set [CodePage](#CodePage) to *65001*. In the C++ Edition for Windows, the *W version of the class must be used. For instance, *DNSW* or *HTTPW*.

**UseProxyAutoConfigURL**: Whether to use a Proxy auto-config file when attempting a connection.This configuration specifies whether the struct will attempt to use the Proxy auto-config URL when establishing a connection and [proxy_auto_detect](#proxy_auto_detect-property-rest-struct) is set to *True*.

When *True* (default), the struct will check for the existence of a Proxy auto-config URL, and if found, will determine the appropriate proxy to use.

**UserAgent**: Information about the user agent (browser).This is the value supplied in the HTTP User-Agent header. The default setting is "IPWorks HTTP Component - www.nsoftware.com".

Override the default with the name and version of your software.

### TCPClient Config Settings

**ConnectionTimeout**: Sets a separate timeout value for establishing a connection.When set, this configuration setting allows you to specify a different timeout value for establishing a connection. Otherwise, the struct will use [timeout](#timeout-property-rest-struct) for establishing a connection and transmitting/receiving data.

**EnableFallback**: Whether to try the other addresses the remote host resolves to when a connection attempt fails.When set to True and remote_host resolves to more than one address, the struct will try the remaining addresses in turn if the connection to the first one fails, and only fails with an error once every address has been tried. The error reported is the one from the last attempt. Use [FallbackTimeout](#FallbackTimeout) to limit the total time spent.

NOTE: Only addresses of the same IP version as the first one are tried, this setting does not fall back from IPv6 to IPv4. Selecting between IPv6 and IPv4 is done by [UseIPv6](#UseIPv6) when the host is resolved.

This setting must be set before the connection is established. The default value for this setting is False.

**FallbackTimeout**: The maximum time in milliseconds to spend on connection attempts when EnableFallback is enabled.This setting limits the total time that the struct will spend on all of the connection attempts made when [EnableFallback](#EnableFallback) is enabled. The default value is 0, in which case each attempt uses the operating system's own connection timeout.

NOTE: This setting only applies when [EnableFallback](#EnableFallback) is True. It is unrelated to [ConnectionTimeout](#ConnectionTimeout), which is specified in seconds and applies to the [connected](#connected-property-rest-struct) operation as a whole.

**FirewallAutoDetect**: Tells the struct whether or not to automatically detect and use firewall system settings, if available.This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**FirewallHost**: Name or IP address of firewall (optional).If a [FirewallHost](#FirewallHost) is given, requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting.

If the [FirewallHost](#FirewallHost) setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the [FirewallHost](#FirewallHost) setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**FirewallHTTPVersion**: The HTTP version to be used when connecting through a tunneling proxy.When [FirewallType](#FirewallType) is set to a tunneling proxy, this setting dictates which HTTP version is used when connecting.

**FirewallPassword**: Password to be used if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall.If [FirewallHost](#FirewallHost) is specified, the [FirewallUser](#FirewallUser) and [FirewallPassword](#FirewallPassword) settings are used to connect and authenticate to the given firewall. If the authentication fails, the struct fails with an error.

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**FirewallPort**: The TCP port for the FirewallHost;.The [FirewallPort](#FirewallPort) is set automatically when [FirewallType](#FirewallType) is set to a valid value.

NOTE: This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**FirewallType**: Determines the type of firewall to connect through.Possible values are as follows:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | No firewall (default setting). |
| 1 | Connect through a tunneling proxy. [FirewallPort](#FirewallPort) is set to 80. |
| 2 | Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. [FirewallPort](#FirewallPort) is set to 1080. |
| 3 | Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. [FirewallPort](#FirewallPort) is set to 1080. |
| 10 | Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. [FirewallPort](#FirewallPort) is set to 1080. |

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**FirewallUser**: A user name if authentication is to be used connecting through a firewall.If the [FirewallHost](#FirewallHost) is specified, the [FirewallUser](#FirewallUser) and [FirewallPassword](#FirewallPassword) settings are used to connect and authenticate to the Firewall. If the authentication fails, the struct fails with an error.

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

**KeepAliveInterval**: The retry interval, in milliseconds, to be used when a TCP keep-alive packet is sent and no response is received.When set, [TCPKeepAlive](#TCPKeepAlive) will automatically be set to True. A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity as defined by [KeepAliveTime](#KeepAliveTime). If no acknowledgment is received from the remote host, the keep-alive packet will be sent again. This configuration setting specifies the interval at which the successive keep-alive packets are sent in milliseconds. This system default if this value is not specified here is 1 second.

NOTE: This value is not applicable in macOS.

**KeepAliveTime**: The inactivity time in milliseconds before a TCP keep-alive packet is sent.When set, [TCPKeepAlive](#TCPKeepAlive) will automatically be set to True. By default, the operating system will determine the time a connection is idle before a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) keep-alive packet is sent. This system default if this value is not specified here is 2 hours. In many cases, a shorter interval is more useful. Set this value to the desired interval in milliseconds.

**Linger**: When set to True, connections are terminated gracefully.This property controls how a connection is closed. The default is True.

In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if [LingerTime](#LingerTime) is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.

In the second scenario, if [LingerTime](#LingerTime) is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified [LingerTime](#LingerTime) is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.

The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the struct returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).

Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.

**LingerTime**: Time in seconds to have the connection linger. LingerTime is the time, in seconds, the socket connection will linger. This value is 0 by default, which means it will use the default IP timeout.

**LocalHost**: The name of the local host through which connections are initiated or accepted. The [local_host](#local_host-property-rest-struct) setting 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 value of an interface will make the struct initiate connections (or accept in the case of server structs) only through that interface.

If the struct is connected, the [local_host](#local_host-property-rest-struct) setting 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).

**LocalPort**: The port in the local host where the struct binds. This configuration setting must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the struct to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by local_port after the connection is established.

local_port cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.

This configuration setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port on the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.

**MaxLineLength**: The maximum amount of data to accumulate when no EOL is found.[MaxLineLength](#MaxLineLength) is the size of an internal buffer, which holds received data while waiting for an eol string.

If an eol string is found in the input stream before [MaxLineLength](#MaxLineLength) bytes are received, the on_data_in event is fired with the *EOL* parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.

If no eol is found, and [MaxLineLength](#MaxLineLength) bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the on_data_in event is fired with the *EOL* parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.

The minimum value for [MaxLineLength](#MaxLineLength) is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

**MaxTransferRate**: The transfer rate limit in bytes per second.This configuration setting can be used to throttle outbound TCP traffic. Set this to the number of bytes to be sent per second. By default, this is not set and there is no limit.

**ProxyExceptionsList**: A semicolon separated list of hosts and IPs to bypass when using a proxy.This configuration setting optionally specifies a semicolon-separated list of hostnames or IP addresses to bypass when a proxy is in use. When requests are made to hosts specified in this property, the proxy will not be used. For instance:

*www.google.com;www.example.com*

**TCPKeepAlive**: Determines whether or not the keep alive socket option is enabled.If set to True, the socket's keep-alive option is enabled and keep-alive packets will be sent periodically to maintain the connection. Set [KeepAliveTime](#KeepAliveTime) and [KeepAliveInterval](#KeepAliveInterval) to configure the timing of the keep-alive packets.

NOTE: This value is not applicable in Java.

**TcpNoDelay**: Whether or not to delay when sending packets. When set to True, the socket will send all data that are ready to send at once. When set to False, the socket will send smaller buffered packets of data at small intervals. This is known as the Nagle algorithm.

By default, this configuration setting is set to False.

**UseIPv6**: Whether to use IPv6.When set to *0* (default), the struct will use IPv4 exclusively. When set to *1*, the struct will use IPv6 exclusively. To instruct the struct to prefer IPv6 addresses, but use IPv4 if IPv6 is not supported on the system, this setting should be set to *2*. The default value is *0*. Possible values are as follows:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | IPv4 only |
| 1 | IPv6 only |
| 2 | IPv6 with IPv4 fallback |

**UseNTLMv2**: Whether to use NTLM V2.When authenticating with NTLM, this setting specifies whether NTLM V2 is used. By default this value is True and NTLM V2 will be used. Set this to False to use NTLM V1.

### SSL Config Settings

**LogSSLPackets**: Controls whether SSL packets are logged when using the internal security API.When [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) is set to *Internal*, this configuration setting controls whether Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) packets should be logged. By default, this configuration setting is *False*, as it is useful only for debugging purposes.

When enabled, SSL packet logs are output using the [on_ssl_status](#on_ssl_status-event-rest-struct) event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.

Enabling this configuration setting has no effect if [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) is set to *Platform*.

**OpenSSLCADir**: The path to a directory containing CA certificates.This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The path set by this property should point to a directory containing CA certificates in PEM format. The files each contain one CA certificate. The files are looked up by the CA subject name hash value, which must hence be available. If more than one CA certificate with the same name hash value exist, the extension must be different (e.g., 9d66eef0.0, 9d66eef0.1). OpenSSL recommends the use of the c_rehash utility to create the necessary links. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

**OpenSSLCAFile**: Name of the file containing the list of CA's trusted by your application.This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The file set by this property should contain a list of CA certificates in PEM format. The file can contain several CA certificates identified by the following sequences:

 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

 ... (CA certificate in base64 encoding) ...

 -----END CERTIFICATE-----

 Before, between, and after the certificate text is allowed, which can be used, for example, for descriptions of the certificates. Refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

**OpenSSLCipherList**: A string that controls the ciphers to be used by SSL.This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The format of this string is described in the OpenSSL man page ciphers(1) section "CIPHER LIST FORMAT". Please refer to it for details. The default string "DEFAULT" is determined at compile time and is normally equivalent to "ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+SSLv2:@STRENGTH".

**OpenSSLPrngSeedData**: The data to seed the pseudo random number generator (PRNG).This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

By default, OpenSSL uses the device file "/dev/urandom" to seed the PRNG, and setting OpenSSLPrngSeedData is not required. If set, the string specified is used to seed the PRNG.

**ReuseSSLSession**: Determines if the SSL session is reused.

If set to True, the struct will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:

- The target host name is the same.
- The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
- The application process that calls the function is the same.
- The logon session is the same.
- The instance of the struct is the same.

**SSLCACerts**: A newline separated list of CA certificates to be included when performing an SSL handshake.When [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) is set to *Internal*, this configuration setting specifies one or more CA certificates to be included with the ssl_cert property. Some servers or clients require the entire chain, including CA certificates, to be presented when performing SSL authentication. The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

```text
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
... Intermediate Cert ...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w
F0I1XhM+pKj7FjDr+XNj
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
\r \n
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEFjCCAv6gAwIBAgIQetu1SMxpnENAnnOz1P+PtTANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADBp
... Root Cert ...
d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
```

**SSLCheckCRL**: Whether to check the Certificate Revocation List for the server certificate.This configuration setting specifies whether the struct will check the Certificate Revocation List (CRL) specified by the server certificate. If set to 1 or 2, the struct will first obtain the list of CRL URLs from the server certificate's CRL distribution points extension. The struct will then make HTTP requests to each CRL endpoint to check the validity of the server's certificate. If the certificate has been revoked or any other issues are found during validation the struct fails with an error.

When set to 0 (default), the CRL check will not be performed by the struct. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the CRL check, but it will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support CRL. When set to 2, it will perform the CRL check and will throw an error if CRL is not supported.

This configuration setting is supported only in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is supported only on Windows operating systems.

**SSLCheckOCSP**: Whether to use OCSP to check the status of the server certificate.This configuration setting specifies whether the struct will use OCSP to check the validity of the server certificate. If set to 1 or 2, the struct will first obtain the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) URL from the server certificate's OCSP extension. The struct will then locate the issuing certificate and make an HTTP request to the OCSP endpoint to check the validity of the server's certificate. If the certificate has been revoked or any other issues are found during validation, the struct fails with an error.

When set to 0 (default), the struct will not perform an OCSP check. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the OCSP check, but it will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support OCSP. When set to 2, it will perform the OCSP check and will throw an error if OCSP is not supported.

This configuration setting is supported only in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is supported only on Windows operating systems.

**SSLCipherStrength**: The minimum cipher strength used for bulk encryption. This minimum cipher strength is largely dependent on the security modules installed on the system. If the cipher strength specified is not supported, an error will be returned when connections are initiated.

NOTE: This configuration setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library. The actual cipher strength used for the connection is shown by the [on_ssl_status](#on_ssl_status-event-rest-struct) event.

Use this configuration setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.

When the provider is OpenSSL, [SSLCipherStrength](#SSLCipherStrength) is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the [OpenSSLCipherList](#OpenSSLCipherList) configuration setting.

**SSLClientCACerts**: A newline separated list of CA certificates to use during SSL client certificate validation.This configuration setting is only applicable to server components (e.g., TCPServer) see [SSLServerCACerts](#SSLServerCACerts) for client components (e.g., TCPClient). This setting can be used to optionally specify one or more CA certificates to be used when verifying the client certificate that is presented by the client during the SSL handshake when ssl_authenticate_clients is enabled. When verifying the client's certificate, the certificates trusted by the system will be used as part of the verification process. If the client's CA certificates are not installed to the trusted system store, they may be specified here so they are included when performing the verification process. This configuration setting should be set only if the client's CA certificates are not already trusted on the system and cannot be installed to the trusted system store.

The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

```text
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw

d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
```

**SSLEnabledCipherSuites**: The cipher suite to be used in an SSL negotiation.This configuration setting enables the cipher suites to be used in SSL negotiation.

By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").

The special value "*" means that the struct will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If [SSLEnabledCipherSuites](#SSLEnabledCipherSuites) is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.

Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.

Example values when [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) is set to *Platform* include the following:

```text
obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*");
obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256");

When TLS 1.3 is negotiated (see [SSLEnabledProtocols](#SSLEnabledProtocols)), only the following cipher suites are supported:

- TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
- TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
- TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

[SSLEnabledCipherSuites](#SSLEnabledCipherSuites) is used together with [SSLCipherStrength](#SSLCipherStrength).

**SSLEnabledProtocols**: Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.This configuration setting is used to enable or disable the supported security protocols.

Not all supported protocols are enabled by default. The default value is *4032* for client components, and *3072* for server components. To specify a combination of enabled protocol versions set this config to the binary *OR* of one or more of the following values:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| TLS1.3 | 12288 (Hex 3000) |
| TLS1.2 | 3072 (Hex C00) (Default - Client and Server) |
| TLS1.1 | 768 (Hex 300) (Default - Client) |
| TLS1 | 192 (Hex C0) (Default - Client) |
| SSL3 | 48 (Hex 30) |
| SSL2 | 12 (Hex 0C) |

Note that only TLS 1.2 is enabled for server components that accept incoming connections. This adheres to industry standards to ensure a secure connection. Client components enable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and TLS 1.2 by default and will negotiate the highest mutually supported version when connecting to a server, which should be TLS 1.2 in most cases.

**SSLEnabledProtocols: Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 Notes:**

By default when TLS 1.3 is enabled, the struct will first try to use the platform TLS 1.3 implementation when the [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) is set to Automatic for all editions. If the platform TLS 1.3 implementation is not available, the internal implementation will be used.

In editions that are designed to run on Windows, [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) can be set to Platform to use the platform implementation instead of the internal implementation. When configured in this manner, please note that the platform provider is supported only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up. The default internal provider is available on all platforms and is not restricted to any specific OS version.

If set to *1* (Platform provider), please be aware of the following notes:

- The platform provider is available only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up.
- [SSLEnabledCipherSuites](#SSLEnabledCipherSuites) and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
- If [SSLEnabledProtocols](#SSLEnabledProtocols) includes both TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2, these restrictions are still applicable even if TLS 1.2 is negotiated. Enabling TLS 1.3 with the platform provider changes the implementation used for all TLS versions.

**SSLEnabledProtocols: SSL2 and SSL3 Notes: **

SSL 2.0 and 3.0 are not supported by the struct when the [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) is set to internal. To use SSL 2.0 or SSL 3.0, the platform security API must have the protocols enabled and [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) needs to be set to platform.

**SSLEnableRenegotiation**: Whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension is supported.This configuration setting specifies whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension will be used in the request when using the internal security API. This configuration setting is *false* by default, but it can be set to *true* to enable the extension.

This configuration setting is applicable only when [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) is set to *Internal*.

**SSLIncludeCertChain**: Whether the entire certificate chain is included in the SSLServerAuthentication event.This configuration setting specifies whether the Encoded parameter of the [on_ssl_server_authentication](#on_ssl_server_authentication-event-rest-struct) event contains the full certificate chain. By default this value is False and only the leaf certificate will be present in the Encoded parameter of the [on_ssl_server_authentication](#on_ssl_server_authentication-event-rest-struct) event.

If set to True, all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the [on_ssl_server_authentication](#on_ssl_server_authentication-event-rest-struct) event. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.

**SSLKeyLogFile**: The location of a file where per-session secrets are written for debugging purposes.This configuration setting optionally specifies the full path to a file on disk where per-session secrets are stored for debugging purposes.

When set, the struct will save the session secrets in the same format as the SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable functionality used by most major browsers and tools, such as Chrome, Firefox, and cURL. This file can then be used in tools such as Wireshark to decrypt TLS traffic for debugging purposes. When writing to this file, the struct will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.

NOTE: This configuration setting is applicable only when [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) is set to *Internal*.

**SSLNegotiatedCipher**: Returns the negotiated cipher suite.This configuration setting returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipher[connId]");
```

**SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength**: Returns the negotiated cipher suite strength.This configuration setting returns the strength of the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength[connId]");
```

**SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite**: Returns the negotiated cipher suite.This configuration setting returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake represented as a single string.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite[connId]");
```

**SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange**: Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm.This configuration setting returns the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange[connId]");
```

**SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength**: Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm strength.This configuration setting returns the strength of the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength[connId]");
```

**SSLNegotiatedVersion**: Returns the negotiated protocol version.This configuration setting returns the protocol version negotiated during the SSL handshake.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedVersion[connId]");
```

**SSLSecurityFlags**: Flags that control certificate verification.The following flags are defined (specified in hexadecimal notation). They can be ORed together to exclude multiple conditions:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0x00000001 | Ignore time validity status of certificate. |
| 0x00000002 | Ignore time validity status of CTL. |
| 0x00000004 | Ignore non-nested certificate times. |
| 0x00000010 | Allow unknown certificate authority. |
| 0x00000020 | Ignore wrong certificate usage. |
| 0x00000100 | Ignore unknown certificate revocation status. |
| 0x00000200 | Ignore unknown CTL signer revocation status. |
| 0x00000400 | Ignore unknown certificate authority revocation status. |
| 0x00000800 | Ignore unknown root revocation status. |
| 0x00008000 | Allow test root certificate. |
| 0x00004000 | Trust test root certificate. |
| 0x80000000 | Ignore non-matching CN (certificate CN non-matching server name). |

This functionality is currently not available when the provider is OpenSSL.

**SSLServerCACerts**: A newline separated list of CA certificates to use during SSL server certificate validation.This configuration setting is only used by client components (e.g., TCPClient) see [SSLClientCACerts](#SSLClientCACerts) for server components (e.g., TCPServer). This configuration setting can be used to optionally specify one or more CA certificates to be used when connecting to the server and verifying the server certificate. When verifying the server's certificate, the certificates trusted by the system will be used as part of the verification process. If the server's CA certificates are not installed to the trusted system store, they may be specified here so they are included when performing the verification process. This configuration setting should be set only if the server's CA certificates are not already trusted on the system and cannot be installed to the trusted system store.

The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

```text
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw

-----END CERTIFICATE-----
```

**TLS12SignatureAlgorithms**: Defines the allowed TLS 1.2 signature algorithms when SSLProvider is set to Internal.This configuration setting specifies the allowed server certificate signature algorithms when [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) is set to *Internal* and [SSLEnabledProtocols](#SSLEnabledProtocols) is set to allow TLS 1.2.

When specified the struct will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this configuration setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported, the struct fails with an error.

The format of this value is a comma-separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance:

```csharp
component.SSLProvider = TCPClientSSLProviders.sslpInternal;
component.Config("SSLEnabledProtocols=3072"); //TLS 1.2
component.Config("TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa");
```

 The default value for this configuration setting is *sha512-ecdsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa,sha384-ecdsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha256-ecdsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha224-ecdsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha1-ecdsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa*.

To not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this configuration setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.

**TLS12SupportedGroups**: The supported groups for ECC.This configuration setting specifies a comma-separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.2 for ECC.

The default value is *ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1*.

When using TLS 1.2 and [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property-rest-struct) is set to *Internal*, the values refer to the supported groups for ECC. The following values are supported:

- "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)

**TLS13KeyShareGroups**: The groups for which to pregenerate key shares.This configuration setting specifies a comma-separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. The groups specified here will have key share data pregenerated locally before establishing a connection. This can prevent an additional roundtrip during the handshake if the group is supported by the server.

The default value is set to balance common supported groups and the computational resources required to generate key shares. As a result, only some groups are included by default in this configuration setting.

NOTE: All supported groups can always be used during the handshake even if not listed here, but if a group is used that is not present in this list, it will incur an additional roundtrip and time to generate the key share for that group.

In most cases, this configuration setting does not need to be modified. This should be modified only if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is *ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072*

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

- "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
- "ecdhe_x448"
- "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp521r1"
- "ffdhe_2048" (default)
- "ffdhe_3072" (default)
- "ffdhe_4096"
- "ffdhe_6144"
- "ffdhe_8192"

**TLS13SignatureAlgorithms**: The allowed certificate signature algorithms.This configuration setting holds a comma-separated list of allowed signature algorithms. Possible values include the following:

- "ed25519" (default)
- "ed448" (default)
- "ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256" (default)
- "ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384" (default)
- "ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512" (default)
- "rsa_pkcs1_sha256" (default)
- "rsa_pkcs1_sha384" (default)
- "rsa_pkcs1_sha512" (default)
- "rsa_pss_sha256" (default)
- "rsa_pss_sha384" (default)
- "rsa_pss_sha512" (default)

 The default value is *rsa_pss_sha256,rsa_pss_sha384,rsa_pss_sha512,rsa_pkcs1_sha256,rsa_pkcs1_sha384,rsa_pkcs1_sha512,ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256,ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384,ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512,ed25519,ed448*. This configuration setting is applicable only when [SSLEnabledProtocols](#SSLEnabledProtocols) includes TLS 1.3.

**TLS13SupportedGroups**: The supported groups for (EC)DHE key exchange.This configuration setting specifies a comma-separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. This configuration setting should be modified only if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is *ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_x448,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072,ffdhe_4096,ffdhe_6144,ffdhe_8192,mlkem_512,mlkem_768,mlkem_1024,x25519_mlkem_768,secp256r1_mlkem_768*

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

- "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
- "ecdhe_x448" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)
- "ffdhe_2048" (default)
- "ffdhe_3072" (default)
- "ffdhe_4096" (default)
- "ffdhe_6144" (default)
- "ffdhe_8192" (default)
- "mlkem_512" (default)
- "mlkem_768" (default)
- "mlkem_1024" (default)
- "x25519_mlkem_768" (default)
- "secp256r1_mlkem_768" (default)

Post-quantum algorithms (*mlkem_512,mlkem_768,mlkem_1024,x25519_mlkem_768,secp256r1_mlkem_768*) in our components rely on the operating system's underlying cryptographic primitives. The following platforms are currently supported:

-  Windows Server 2025
-  Windows 11 24H2
-  Windows 11 25H2

### Socket Config Settings

**AbsoluteTimeout**: Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts.If [AbsoluteTimeout](#AbsoluteTimeout) is set to True, any method that does not complete within [timeout](#timeout-property-rest-struct) seconds will be aborted. By default, *AbsoluteTimeout* is False, and the timeout is an inactivity timeout.

NOTE: This option is not valid for User Datagram Protocol (UDP) ports.

**FirewallData**: Used to send extra data to the firewall.When the firewall is a tunneling proxy, use this property to send custom (additional) headers to the firewall (e.g., headers for custom authentication schemes).

**InBufferSize**: The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket.This is the size of an internal queue in the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be receiving. In some cases, increasing the value of the *InBufferSize* setting can provide significant improvements in performance.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the struct is activated the *InBufferSize* reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

**OutBufferSize**: The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket.This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be sending. In some cases, increasing the value of the *OutBufferSize* setting can provide significant improvements in performance.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the struct is activated the *OutBufferSize* reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

### 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).

**LicenseInfo**: Information about the current license.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a struct 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*.

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

Setting this configuration setting to *true* tells the struct 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.
