The AS3Receiver struct is used to process AS3 messages and generate receipts.

Syntax

ipworksedi::AS3Receiver

Remarks

The AS3Receiver struct allows you to receive AS3 messages over FTP, as specified in [AS3] and RFC 3335. The struct can act as a FTP client, decrypt and verify incoming messages, and generate receipts including Message Disposition Notifications (MDNs). The struct is designed to interoperate easily with a standard FTP server.

BASIC OPERATION

You should first log in to the FTP server by invoking logon. If you need to search the FTP server for requests you may set remote_path, invoke list_directory, etc. When you find the desired files you may then download them invoking read_request. Alternatively, if you acquire the AS3 data by other means you may simply set request.

read_request (or parse_headers) will determine information such as as3_from and as3_to, which will allow you to set the appropriate certificates. You may specify your certificate with the certificate property, and your trading partner's (signing) certificate with the signer_cert property.

Then, invoke process_request to process the request and generate the MDN receipt as specified in [AS3]. If the request was processed successfully, edi_data will contain the transmitted EDI data. If a problem occurred, edi_data will not be populated and an exception will be thrown. In either case mdn_receipt will contain the RFC-compliant receipt, which should be returned to the client.

The mdn_receipt may be returned over the same FTP connection by invoking send_response. If it is necessary to create a new connection or send receipts to a different server you may logoff and logon at will.

To create log files, set log_directory prior to invoking process_request. This will log all incoming and outgoing data, and will also write the received EDI files to disk.

EXAMPLE AS3Receiver1.User = "myusername" AS3Receiver1.Password = "mypassword" AS3Receiver1.RemoteHost = "ftp.mytradingpartner.com" AS3Receiver1.Logon() // You may need to search the server for received files at this point AS3Receiver1.ReadRequest("1053-ji094986.as3") // At this point, you should check the values of AS2From and AS2To. AS3Receiver1.Certificate = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPFXFile, "\\my_server_directory\\my_pfx_file.pfx", "my password", "CN=Me"); AS3Receiver1.SignerCert = (...); AS3Receiver1.LogDirectory = "c:\\my_server_directory\\my_log_directory"; AS3Receiver1.ProcessRequest(); // It will probably be necessary to change the RemotePath or even logon // to a different server here. AS3Receiver1.SendResponse("1053-ji094986-mdn.as3"); Additional functionality allows the user to examine details of the client's request, to permit certain types of errors, or to customize the outgoing MDN. See the property and method list for details.

Object Lifetime

The new() method returns a mutable reference to a struct instance. The object itself is kept in the global list maintained by IPWorksEDI. Due to this, the AS3Receiver struct cannot be disposed of automatically. Please, call the dispose(&self) method of AS3Receiver when you have finished using the instance.

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

23 (cstPKCS11)The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface.

To use a security key, create a new Certificate object and pass cstPKCS11 as the cert_store_type, the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL as the cert_store, and the PIN as the cert_store_password.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (without CertMgr): sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll", "123456", // PIN "CN=cert_subject"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

Alternatively, collect the necessary data using the CertMgr struct by calling the list_store_certificates method after setting the corresponding properties accordingly. The certificate information returned in the on_cert_list event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate obtained with this approach, pass the previously saved security key information as the cert_store and set cert_store_password to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (with CertMgr): certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; // PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

99 (cstAuto)The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

Setting LogDirectory will instruct the component to log the details of each transmission to unique files in the specified directory. For each request processed, the struct will log the original EDI data, the complete text of the outgoing request and the incoming response.

The struct will write a file for each transmission, with extension ".log". In case of error an additional file will be written with extension ".err", and the error will be reported in both files. Raw AS3 messages created or downloaded by the struct will be written with extension ".as3", and MDNs created or downloaded will be written with extension ".as3-mdn".

The filenames will be chosen automatically by the struct. Each filename will be the system time, in the format YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS-MMMM, with extensions "-2", "-3", used in case files of those names already exist. After each transaction is processed log_file will contain the name of the files just written, minus the extension ".log" or ".err".

If logs cannot be written an exception will be thrown.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (without CertMgr): sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll", "123456", // PIN "CN=cert_subject"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

Alternatively, collect the necessary data using the CertMgr struct by calling the list_store_certificates method after setting the corresponding properties accordingly. The certificate information returned in the on_cert_list event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate obtained with this approach, pass the previously saved security key information as the signer_cert_store and set signer_cert_store_password to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (with CertMgr): certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; // PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

23 (cstPKCS11)The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface.

To use a security key, create a new Certificate object and pass cstPKCS11 as the ssl_cert_store_type, the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL as the ssl_cert_store, and the PIN as the ssl_cert_store_password.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (without CertMgr): sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll", "123456", // PIN "CN=cert_subject"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

Alternatively, collect the necessary data using the CertMgr struct by calling the list_store_certificates method after setting the corresponding properties accordingly. The certificate information returned in the on_cert_list event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate obtained with this approach, pass the previously saved security key information as the ssl_cert_store and set ssl_cert_store_password to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (with CertMgr): certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; // PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

99 (cstAuto)The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

0 (cstUser - default)For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a certificate store owned by the current user.

NOTE: This store type is not available in Java.

1 (cstMachine)For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a machine store.

NOTE: This store type is not available in Java.

2 (cstPFXFile)The certificate store is the name of a PFX (PKCS#12) file containing certificates.
3 (cstPFXBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in PFX (PKCS#12) format.
4 (cstJKSFile)The certificate store is the name of a Java Key Store (JKS) file containing certificates.

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java.

5 (cstJKSBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in Java Key Store (JKS) format.

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java.

22 (cstBCFKSBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in BCFKS (Bouncy Castle FIPS Key Store) format.

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

23 (cstPKCS11)The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface.

To use a security key, create a new Certificate object and pass cstPKCS11 as the ssl_server_cert_store_type, the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL as the ssl_server_cert_store, and the PIN as the ssl_server_cert_store_password.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (without CertMgr): sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll", "123456", // PIN "CN=cert_subject"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

Alternatively, collect the necessary data using the CertMgr struct by calling the list_store_certificates method after setting the corresponding properties accordingly. The certificate information returned in the on_cert_list event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate obtained with this approach, pass the previously saved security key information as the ssl_server_cert_store and set ssl_server_cert_store_password to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (with CertMgr): certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; // PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

99 (cstAuto)The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

The subject of the certificate used for client authentication.

Syntax

fn ssl_server_cert_subject(&self) -> Result<String, IPWorksEDIError> 

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property must be set after all other certificate properties are set. When this property is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store to locate a certificate with a matching subject.

If a matching certificate is found, the property is set to the full subject of the matching certificate.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

ssl_start_mode property (AS3Receiver Struct)

Determines how the struct starts the SSL negotiation. By default, SSL will not be used.

Syntax

fn ssl_start_mode(&self) -> Result<i32, IPWorksEDIError> 
fn set_ssl_start_mode(&self, value : i32) -> Option<IPWorksEDIError>

Possible Values

0   // Automatic
1 // Implicit
2 // Explicit
3 // None

Default Value

3

Remarks

The ssl_start_mode property may have one of the following values:

0 (sslAutomatic - default)If the remote port is set to the standard plaintext port of the protocol (where applicable), the struct will behave the same as if ssl_start_mode is set to sslExplicit. In all other cases, SSL negotiation will be implicit (sslImplicit).
1 (sslImplicit)The SSL negotiation will start immediately after the connection is established.
2 (sslExplicit)The struct will first connect in plaintext, and then explicitly start SSL negotiation through a protocol command such as STARTTLS.
3 (sslNone)No SSL negotiation, no SSL security. All communication will be in plaintext mode.

Data Type

i32

timeout property (AS3Receiver Struct)

The timeout for the struct.

Syntax

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

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 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

user property (AS3Receiver Struct)

This property contains the user identifier to use to log in.

Syntax

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

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property contains the user identifier to be used when logging in. It must be set before the struct connects to the FTP server.

Data Type

String

abort method (AS3Receiver Struct)

The method aborts the current upload or download.

Syntax

fn abort(&self) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

This method sends an ABOR command to the FTP server. It is used to interrupt file uploads and downloads.

change_remote_path method (AS3Receiver Struct)

This method changes the current path on the FTP server.

Syntax

fn change_remote_path(&self, remote_path : &str) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

This method changes the current path on the FTP server to the specified remote_path. When called, the struct will issue a command to the server to change the directory. The remote_path parameter may hold an absolute or relative path.

Absolute Paths

If the path begins with a /, it is considered an absolute path and must specify the entire path from the root of the server. For instance:

component.ChangeRemotePath("/home/testuser/myfolder");

Relative Paths

If the path does not begin with a /, it is considered a relative path and is resolved in relation to the current directory. For instance, a value of myfolder will indicate a subfolder of the current directory. The special value .. refers to the parent directory of the current path. For instance:

//Change to the 'myfolder' sub-directory component.ChangeRemotePath("myfolder"); //Navigate up two levels and then into the 'another/folder' path. component.ChangeRemotePath("../../another/folder");

config method (AS3Receiver Struct)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

fn config(&self, configuration_string : &str) -> Result<String, IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

config is a generic method available in every struct. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings 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, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

create_mdn_receipt method (AS3Receiver Struct)

Creates MDNReceipt .

Syntax

fn create_mdn_receipt(&self, headers : &str, mdn : &str, message : &str) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

CreateMDNReceipt may be invoked after parse_request to create an MDN-based receipt. The receipt will report success or failure depending on ErrorReportingFlags and the success or failure of parse_request.

This method populates mdn_receipt with a new MDNReceipt. The Headers, MDN, and Message parameters can be used to further customize the receipt, or an empty string ("") parameters may be set to use the struct generated defaults. Headers will set additional transport headers to be sent with the receipt (in the HTTP or SMTP headers of the signed receipt). MDN can be used to append additional headers to the Message Disposition Notification portion of the MDN Receipt. If MDN is set to a value prefixed with an at sign ("@"), the at sign will be removed and the specified MDN will be used in the receipt in place of the component generated value. Message will set the human-readable portion of the receipt, and should describe any error conditions that may have occurred.

delete_file method (AS3Receiver Struct)

This method removes a file specified by FileName from an FTP server.

Syntax

fn delete_file(&self, file_name : &str) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

This method is used to remove a file specified by file_name from an FTP server. The remote file or directory specified by file_name is deleted. file_name is either an absolute path on the server, or a path relative to remote path set by change_remote_path. If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the logon method.

get_file_size method (AS3Receiver Struct)

Gets the size of a file on the FTP server.

Syntax

fn get_file_size(&self, file_name : &str) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

Gets the size of the file specified by FileName and remote_path on the FTP server.

get_file_time method (AS3Receiver Struct)

Gets the last modification time of a file on the FTP server.

Syntax

fn get_file_time(&self, file_name : &str) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

Gets the last modification time of the file specified by FileName and remote_path on the FTP server.

list_directory method (AS3Receiver Struct)

List the current directory on an FTP server.

Syntax

fn list_directory(&self, files_to_list : &str) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

A listing is requested for the directory or file mask specified in FilesToList. This can be an absolute path on the server, a path relative to remote_path, or a file mask. The file listing is received through the on_dir_list event.

Similar to list_directory_long, except only file names are returned. If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the logon method.

list_directory_long method (AS3Receiver Struct)

List the current directory on an FTP server.

Syntax

fn list_directory_long(&self, files_to_list : &str) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

A listing is requested for the directory or file mask specified in FilesToList. This can be an absolute path on the server, a path relative to remote_path, or a file mask. The file listing is received through the on_dir_list event. Extended file information is returned.

If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the logon method.

logoff method (AS3Receiver Struct)

This method is used to log off from the FTP server by posting a QUIT command.

Syntax

fn logoff(&self) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

This method is used to log off from the FTP server by posting a QUIT command. If that fails, the connection is terminated by the local host.

logon method (AS3Receiver Struct)

Logon to the FTP RemoteHost using the current User and Password .

Syntax

fn logon(&self) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

Logon to the FTP server using the current user and password. If an SSL (TLS) connection is required, you should first set ssl_start_mode.

Example (Logging On)

FTPControl.RemoteHost = "ftpserver" FTPControl.User = "username" FTPControl.Password = "password" FTPControl.Logon()

parse_request method (AS3Receiver Struct)

Parses the EDI message and determines the EDIData .

Syntax

fn parse_request(&self) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

Processes the EDI message in the request (either from the HTTP context, or as given by request and possibly request_headers_string). If the message is encrypted, it will be decrypted with the certificate specified in certificate. If it is signed, the signature will be verified against the certificate specified in signer_cert.

If the message is scanned without difficulty, edi_data will be populated. If a problem occurs, an exception will be thrown. This might occur if the client used or requested unsupported algorithms or data formats. In this case, edi_data will not be determined.

The struct may be configured to ignore certain errors by setting ErrorProcessingFlags. This will allow the message to be processed and edi_data to be determined. If any errors occur, an exception will be thrown and the scan_result property will reflect the error condition.

Whether or not an exception is thrown, an mdn_receipt may be generated by invoking create_mdn_receipt. In the case of a successful scan mdn_receipt will report the success, otherwise the receipt will provide information to the client about the error.

process_request may be used to scan and create the receipt in one step. read_request may be used to scan the request headers only to obtain details that can be used to configure the correct settings for the partner.

process_request method (AS3Receiver Struct)

Processes the EDI data, and generates the receipt.

Syntax

fn process_request(&self) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

Invoking ProcessRequest automates the entire AS2 server process. The method scans the request, determines the edi_data, and generates the mdn_receipt. In a server environment the receipt may be returned by invoking send_response.

The method's functionality is the same as the combined functionality of parse_request and create_mdn_receipt. The method's operation is controlled by ErrorProcessingFlags and ErrorReportingFlags, and scan_result will be populated as in parse_request.

The method will throw an exception, as parse_request does, if a problem is found while processing the request. However, if the problem does not prevent an MDN from being generated, mdn_receipt will still be generated before the exception is thrown. In all cases, the receipt will be suitable for returning to the client. If an exception is thrown, the mdn_receipt will provide more detail on the cause of the error.

The struct will populate edi_data if no errors occurred scanning the request, or if ErrorProcessingFlags had been previously configured to allow the error.

query_remote_path method (AS3Receiver Struct)

This queries the server for the current path.

Syntax

fn query_remote_path(&self) -> Result<String, IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

This method queries the server for the current path. When called, the struct will issue a command to the server to retrieve the current path value. The return value of this method is the path returned by the server. For instance:

string remotePath = component.QueryRemotePath();

read_request method (AS3Receiver Struct)

Reads the AS3 request from the FTP server.

Syntax

fn read_request(&self, file_name : &str) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

Reads the AS3 request from the FTP server. The name of the file should be given by FileName. The request will be parsed into request and request_headers. The headers will also be parsed and the following properties will be populated:

parse_request may be used to scan the entire message.

reset method (AS3Receiver Struct)

Resets the state of the control.

Syntax

fn reset(&self) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

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

send_ftp_command method (AS3Receiver Struct)

This method sends the exact FTP command directly to the FTP server.

Syntax

fn send_ftp_command(&self, command : &str) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

This method sends the command specified by Command to the server exactly as it is provided. Use this method to send additional or custom commands directly to the server.

After calling this method, check the ftp_last_reply property or monitor the on_pi_trail event to obtain the server's response.

send_response method (AS3Receiver Struct)

Uploads the MDN receipt.

Syntax

fn send_response(&self, file_name : &str) -> Result<(), IPWorksEDIError>

Remarks

Uploads the MDN receipt specified by mdn_receipt. You may create this receipt by invoking process_request or create_mdn_receipt.

Prior to sending, you may logon to the FTP server and navigate to the desired remote_path. If you have not created an FTP connection already then send_response will attempt to establish one.

The URL for upload will be specified (by the sender) in mdn_to.

FileName should contain the name of the file that will be written on the AS3/FTP server.

on_connection_status event (AS3Receiver Struct)

Fired to indicate changes in the connection state.

Syntax

// AS3ReceiverConnectionStatusEventArgs carries the AS3Receiver ConnectionStatus event's parameters.
pub struct AS3ReceiverConnectionStatusEventArgs {
  fn connection_event(&self) -> &String
  fn status_code(&self) -> i32
  fn description(&self) -> &String
}

// AS3ReceiverConnectionStatusEvent defines the signature of the AS3Receiver ConnectionStatus event's handler function.
pub trait AS3ReceiverConnectionStatusEvent {

The connection_event parameter indicates the type of connection event. Values may include the following:

Firewall connection complete.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or S/Shell handshake complete (where applicable).
Remote host connection complete.
Remote host disconnected.
SSL or S/Shell connection broken.
Firewall host disconnected.
status_code has the error code returned by the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. description contains a description of this code. The value of status_code is equal to the value of the error.

on_dir_list event (AS3Receiver Struct)

This event is fired when a directory entry is received.

Syntax

// AS3ReceiverDirListEventArgs carries the AS3Receiver DirList event's parameters.
pub struct AS3ReceiverDirListEventArgs {
  fn dir_entry(&self) -> &String
  fn file_name(&self) -> &String
  fn is_dir(&self) -> bool
  fn file_size(&self) -> i64
  fn file_time(&self) -> &String
}

// AS3ReceiverDirListEvent defines the signature of the AS3Receiver DirList event's handler function.
pub trait AS3ReceiverDirListEvent {
  fn on_dir_list(&self, sender : AS3Receiver, e : &mut AS3ReceiverDirListEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> AS3Receiver<'a> {
  pub fn on_dir_list(&self) -> &'a dyn AS3ReceiverDirListEvent;
  pub fn set_on_dir_list(&mut self, value : &'a dyn AS3ReceiverDirListEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

The on_dir_list events are fired when a directory listing is received as a response to a list_directory or list_directory_long call.

The on_start_transfer and on_end_transfer events mark the beginning and end of the event stream.

The dir_entry parameter contains the filename when list_directory is called and includes extended file information when list_directory_long is called.

The struct tries to fill out the file_name, is_dir, file_size, and file_time parameters when calling the list_directory_long method. Except for file_name, these parameters are empty when a short "List Directory" is performed.

In Unix systems, the date is given in two types of formats: If the date is in the past 12 months the exact time is specified and the year is omitted. Otherwise, only the date and the year, but not hours or minutes, are given.

on_end_transfer event (AS3Receiver Struct)

This event is fired when a file finishes downloading or uploading.

Syntax

// AS3ReceiverEndTransferEventArgs carries the AS3Receiver EndTransfer event's parameters.
pub struct AS3ReceiverEndTransferEventArgs {
  fn direction(&self) -> i32
}

// AS3ReceiverEndTransferEvent defines the signature of the AS3Receiver EndTransfer event's handler function.
pub trait AS3ReceiverEndTransferEvent {
  fn on_end_transfer(&self, sender : AS3Receiver, e : &mut AS3ReceiverEndTransferEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> AS3Receiver<'a> {
  pub fn on_end_transfer(&self) -> &'a dyn AS3ReceiverEndTransferEvent;
  pub fn set_on_end_transfer(&mut self, value : &'a dyn AS3ReceiverEndTransferEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

The on_end_transfer event fires when a Data Interface connection is closed. This occurs when the file finishes transferring or a directory listing is finished.

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

on_error event (AS3Receiver Struct)

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

// AS3ReceiverErrorEventArgs carries the AS3Receiver Error event's parameters.
pub struct AS3ReceiverErrorEventArgs {
  fn error_code(&self) -> i32
  fn description(&self) -> &String
}

// AS3ReceiverErrorEvent defines the signature of the AS3Receiver Error event's handler function.
pub trait AS3ReceiverErrorEvent {
  fn on_error(&self, sender : AS3Receiver, e : &mut AS3ReceiverErrorEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> AS3Receiver<'a> {
  pub fn on_error(&self) -> &'a dyn AS3ReceiverErrorEvent;
  pub fn set_on_error(&mut self, value : &'a dyn AS3ReceiverErrorEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

The on_error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the struct fails with an error.

The error_code parameter contains an error code, and the description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

on_log event (AS3Receiver Struct)

Fired with log information while processing a message.

Syntax

// AS3ReceiverLogEventArgs carries the AS3Receiver Log event's parameters.
pub struct AS3ReceiverLogEventArgs {
  fn log_type(&self) -> &String
  fn log_message(&self) -> &[u8]
}

// AS3ReceiverLogEvent defines the signature of the AS3Receiver Log event's handler function.
pub trait AS3ReceiverLogEvent {
  fn on_log(&self, sender : AS3Receiver, e : &mut AS3ReceiverLogEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> AS3Receiver<'a> {
  pub fn on_log(&self) -> &'a dyn AS3ReceiverLogEvent;
  pub fn set_on_log(&mut self, value : &'a dyn AS3ReceiverLogEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

This event fires once for each log message generated by the struct. The verbosity is controlled by the LogLevel setting.

Log messages available through this event correspond to log files written to log_directory. This event provides a way to obtain log messages without relying on files on disk. This event fires regardless of the value of log_directory (i.e. when log_directory is empty the event will still fire).

The LogMessage event parameter holds the raw log data.

The LogType event parameter indicates the type of log. Possible values are:

"LOG" Information about the status of the process.
"ERR" An error was encountered.
"DAT" The EDI payload.
"REQ" The raw request
"MDN" The MDN response.
"DEBUG" Debug information.
"DAT.INPUT" Debug information when processing payload. Only applicable when LogDebug is True.
"DAT.ENCRYPT" Debug information when processing payload. Only applicable when LogDebug is True.
"DAT.COMPRESS" Debug information when processing payload. Only applicable when LogDebug is True.
"DAT.SIGN" Debug information when processing payload. Only applicable when LogDebug is True.
"DAT.DECRYPT" Debug information when processing payload. Only applicable when LogDebug is True.
"DAT.DECOMPRESS" Debug information when processing payload. Only applicable when LogDebug is True.
"DAT.VERIFY" Debug information when processing payload. Only applicable when LogDebug is True.
"DAT.DEBUG" Debug information when processing payload. Only applicable when LogDebug is True.

on_pi_trail event (AS3Receiver Struct)

This event traces the commands sent to the server, and the respective replies.

Syntax

// AS3ReceiverPITrailEventArgs carries the AS3Receiver PITrail event's parameters.
pub struct AS3ReceiverPITrailEventArgs {
  fn direction(&self) -> i32
  fn message(&self) -> &String
}

// AS3ReceiverPITrailEvent defines the signature of the AS3Receiver PITrail event's handler function.
pub trait AS3ReceiverPITrailEvent {
  fn on_pi_trail(&self, sender : AS3Receiver, e : &mut AS3ReceiverPITrailEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> AS3Receiver<'a> {
  pub fn on_pi_trail(&self) -> &'a dyn AS3ReceiverPITrailEvent;
  pub fn set_on_pi_trail(&mut self, value : &'a dyn AS3ReceiverPITrailEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

The on_pi_trail event is useful for debugging purposes. It shows all of the interactions between the client and the server, line by line.

The message parameter contains the full text of the message. The direction parameter shows the originator of the message:

0 (Client)The message originates from the client.
1 (Server)The message originates from the server.
2 (Info)The message is an informative message originating from the client software (the struct code).

on_signer_cert_info event (AS3Receiver Struct)

This event is fired during verification of the signed message.

Syntax

// AS3ReceiverSignerCertInfoEventArgs carries the AS3Receiver SignerCertInfo event's parameters.
pub struct AS3ReceiverSignerCertInfoEventArgs {
  fn issuer(&self) -> &String
  fn serial_number(&self) -> &String
  fn subject_key_identifier(&self) -> &String
  fn cert_encoded(&self) -> &[u8]
}

// AS3ReceiverSignerCertInfoEvent defines the signature of the AS3Receiver SignerCertInfo event's handler function.
pub trait AS3ReceiverSignerCertInfoEvent {
  fn on_signer_cert_info(&self, sender : AS3Receiver, e : &mut AS3ReceiverSignerCertInfoEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> AS3Receiver<'a> {
  pub fn on_signer_cert_info(&self) -> &'a dyn AS3ReceiverSignerCertInfoEvent;
  pub fn set_on_signer_cert_info(&mut self, value : &'a dyn AS3ReceiverSignerCertInfoEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

During verification, this event will be raised while parsing the signer's certificate information. The parameters that are populated depend on the options used when the message was originally signed. This information may be used to select the correct certificate for signer_cert to verify the signature. The following parameters may be populated:

Issuer specifies the subject of the issuer of the certificate used to sign the message.

SerialNumber is the serial number of the certificate used to sign the message.

SubjectKeyIdentifier is the X.509 subjectKeyIdentifier extension value of the certificate used to sign the message encoded as a hex string.

CertEncoded is the PEM (Base64 encoded) public certificate needed to verify the signature.

NOTE: When this value is present, the struct will automatically use this value to perform signature verification.

The signer_cert property may be set from within this event. In this manner, the decision of which signer certificate to load may be delayed until the parameters of this event are inspected and the correct certificate can be located and loaded.

on_ssl_server_authentication event (AS3Receiver Struct)

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

// AS3ReceiverSSLServerAuthenticationEventArgs carries the AS3Receiver SSLServerAuthentication event's parameters.
pub struct AS3ReceiverSSLServerAuthenticationEventArgs {
  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)
}

// AS3ReceiverSSLServerAuthenticationEvent defines the signature of the AS3Receiver SSLServerAuthentication event's handler function.
pub trait AS3ReceiverSSLServerAuthenticationEvent {
  fn on_ssl_server_authentication(&self, sender : AS3Receiver, e : &mut AS3ReceiverSSLServerAuthenticationEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> AS3Receiver<'a> {
  pub fn on_ssl_server_authentication(&self) -> &'a dyn AS3ReceiverSSLServerAuthenticationEvent;
  pub fn set_on_ssl_server_authentication(&mut self, value : &'a dyn AS3ReceiverSSLServerAuthenticationEvent);
  ...
}

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 (AS3Receiver Struct)

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

// AS3ReceiverSSLStatusEventArgs carries the AS3Receiver SSLStatus event's parameters.
pub struct AS3ReceiverSSLStatusEventArgs {
  fn message(&self) -> &String
}

// AS3ReceiverSSLStatusEvent defines the signature of the AS3Receiver SSLStatus event's handler function.
pub trait AS3ReceiverSSLStatusEvent {
  fn on_ssl_status(&self, sender : AS3Receiver, e : &mut AS3ReceiverSSLStatusEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> AS3Receiver<'a> {
  pub fn on_ssl_status(&self) -> &'a dyn AS3ReceiverSSLStatusEvent;
  pub fn set_on_ssl_status(&mut self, value : &'a dyn AS3ReceiverSSLStatusEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

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

on_start_transfer event (AS3Receiver Struct)

This event fires when a file starts downloading or uploading.

Syntax

// AS3ReceiverStartTransferEventArgs carries the AS3Receiver StartTransfer event's parameters.
pub struct AS3ReceiverStartTransferEventArgs {
  fn direction(&self) -> i32
}

// AS3ReceiverStartTransferEvent defines the signature of the AS3Receiver StartTransfer event's handler function.
pub trait AS3ReceiverStartTransferEvent {
  fn on_start_transfer(&self, sender : AS3Receiver, e : &mut AS3ReceiverStartTransferEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> AS3Receiver<'a> {
  pub fn on_start_transfer(&self) -> &'a dyn AS3ReceiverStartTransferEvent;
  pub fn set_on_start_transfer(&mut self, value : &'a dyn AS3ReceiverStartTransferEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

The on_start_transfer event fires when a Data Interface connection is created. This is when the file starts transferring or a directory listing is started.

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

on_transfer event (AS3Receiver Struct)

This event is fired during the file download or upload.

Syntax

// AS3ReceiverTransferEventArgs carries the AS3Receiver Transfer event's parameters.
pub struct AS3ReceiverTransferEventArgs {
  fn direction(&self) -> i32
  fn bytes_transferred(&self) -> i64
  fn percent_done(&self) -> i32
  fn text(&self) -> &[u8]
}

// AS3ReceiverTransferEvent defines the signature of the AS3Receiver Transfer event's handler function.
pub trait AS3ReceiverTransferEvent {
  fn on_transfer(&self, sender : AS3Receiver, e : &mut AS3ReceiverTransferEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> AS3Receiver<'a> {
  pub fn on_transfer(&self) -> &'a dyn AS3ReceiverTransferEvent;
  pub fn set_on_transfer(&mut self, value : &'a dyn AS3ReceiverTransferEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

One or more on_transfer events are fired during file transfer. The bytes_transferred parameter shows the number of bytes transferred since the beginning of the transfer.

text contains the portion of the file data being delivered.

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 (AS3Receiver 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 method.

AS3Receiver Config Settings

LogFilename:   The base name of the log file.

If set, this will be used as for the filename of the log file.

Note that only the base name should be specified as the struct will append the appropriate file extension.

FTP Config Settings

ActiveModeIP:   Allows the specification of the IP address that the server will connect to for active mode connections.

The ActiveModeIP configuration setting can be used to specify the IP address that the server will connect to when using an active mode configuration (passive = False). When this configuration setting is set, the port number where the struct listens for active mode connections will still be managed by the struct. The PortRange also can be used to ensure that the correct port is used by the client.

NOTE: This configuration setting will be ignored if ActiveModePORTAddress is also specified.

ActiveModePORTAddress:   Allows the specification of the PORT address value for active mode connections.

When using an active mode configuration (passive = False) with a firewall, it may be necessary to specify the actual PORT value to be sent to the server. ActiveModePORTAddress takes the protocol-level parameter in the form "a,b,c,d,e,f" where "a,b,c,d" is the external IP address separated by commas, and e and f represent, respectively, the high-byte (divide by 256) and the low-byte (mod 256) values of the external port where the FTP client is listening.

This configuration setting must be used in conjunction with PortRange to ensure that the correct port is used by the client.

AppendToLocalFile:   Append downloaded files to a local file.

If set to True, the downloaded files will be appended to the file specified in local_file.

ApplyFileMaskLocally:   Whether to filter the directory listing locally or on the server.

If set to true any filemask provided to remote_file will be applied locally, after the server has returned the results. When set to false (default), the value in remote_file will be sent to the server as part of the relevant listing command. Because using filemasks with list commands is not standardized, some servers do not support them and will return an error.

AutoSelectDataIP:   Automatically select the data connection IP.

This setting controls the selection logic of the data connection. By default, this value is True and the struct will attempt to determine the best IP for the data connection based on the returned value from the server. It is recommended to leave this value set to True unless there is a reason to disable it.

In many cases, FTP servers are not configured to return a valid public IP in the PASV response. When Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) is used any network address translation (NAT) done by the firewall cannot occur. The result is the client may receive an IP that is not accessible.

This setting is designed to allow the connection to succeed in as many cases as possible. When the IP for the data connection is received from the server, the struct will inspect the value. If the received value is not within the known private IP ranges, the struct will use it, assuming it is a valid public IP. If the received value is a private IP, the struct will instead assume the data connection should be established to the same IP as the command connection (true in almost all cases).

When this setting is False, the struct will not perform any checks on the received value. When set to False, UseRemoteHostAddressForPassive is applicable.

CalculatePercentDone:   Enables or Disables calculating the percent complete for downloads.

When set to true (default), the struct sends an FTP SIZE command to retrieve the file size before beginning a download. When downloading a large quantity of small files, performance may be increased by disabling this feature.

CheckTotalEntry:   Whether to ignore directory listing total lines.

Some servers will include "total" information when returning a directory listing that contains non-entry data. When CheckTotalEntry is set to True (default), the struct will ignore lines beginning with "total" to account for this. In some cases, it may be desirable to include these lines in the resulting dir_list data; this can be done by setting this configuration setting to False.

DILinger:   When set to True, DI connections are terminated gracefully.

This property controls how the DI connection is closed. The default is True.

In the case that DILinger is True (default), follow two scenarios to determine how long the connection will linger. In the first scenario, if DILingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.

In the second scenario, DILingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified DILingerTime 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 (by a client acknowledgment, for example), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.

DILingerTime:   Time in seconds to have the DI connection linger.

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

FileTimeFormat:   The format of file time reported by the server.

The default value is "M/d/yyyy hh:mm:ss tt". When set, the struct will format the time returned by the server when calling the query_file_time method. To disable all formatting, set this to empty string.

This setting applies only when calling query_file_time. It does not apply to the FileTime parameter of the on_dir_list event.

IgnoreEntries:   Directory entry data to ignore.

Sometimes the FTP server will return data in a directory listing that is not entry data and can be ignored. The IgnoreEntries configuration setting takes a comma-separated list of entries to ignore. Only the beginning of the entries need to be specified and correct case is not required.

MaskSensitiveData:   Masks passwords in logs.

The default value is True. When set to True, the struct will mask passwords that otherwise would appear in its logs.

ModeZCompressionLevel:   Used to specify the level of compression used.

The default value is 7. Valid values range from 0 to 9. A higher value indicates that a higher compression level is being used. This is valid only when UseModeZ is set to True.

PortRange:   Allows the specification of a port range where the struct listens for active mode connections.

When set to use active mode (passive = False), the struct uses any available port to listen to incoming connections from the server. You can override this behavior by setting PortRange to a value containing the range of ports the struct will be listening to.

The range is provided as start-end, for instance: "1024-" stands for anything higher than 1024, "1024-2048" stands for ports between 1024 and 2048 inclusive, "4000-4010, 50000-50010" stands for ports between 4000 and 4010 or between 50000 and 50010.

PreserveFileTime:   Attempts to preserve timestamps when transferring files.

When set to True, the struct will try to preserve timestamps when transferring files. The MDTM command is used when downloading, and the MFTM command is used when uploading. The server must support these commands for this to work and is False by default.

RealTimeUpload:   Enables real time uploading.

When this value is set to True, the struct will upload the data in the file specified by local_file and continue monitoring local_file for additional data to upload until no new data is found for RealTimeUploadAgeLimit seconds. This allows you to start uploading a file immediately after the file is created and continue uploading as data is written to the file. The default value is False.

RealTimeUploadAgeLimit:   The age limit in seconds when using RealTimeUpload.

This value is only applicable when RealTimeUpload is set to "True". This specifies the number of seconds for which the struct will monitor local_file for new data to upload. If this limit is reached and no new data are found in local_file the upload will complete. The default value is "1".

ReusePISSLSessionInDI:   Whether the PI SSL session will be reused for the DI connection.

When set to True (default), the struct will reuse the PI SSL session when creating the DI connection. When set to False, the struct will create a separate SSL session for the DI connection. The default value is True.

ReuseSSLSessionInDI:   Whether the SSL session will be reused for the DI connection.

When set to True (default), the struct will ask the server to reuse the existing DI Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) session. When set to False, a new SSL session will always be created for the DI connection.

UseClearChannel:   Allows for the Clear Command Channel (CCC) command.

When this is set, the struct will send the CCC command to the server requesting a clear (unprotected) command channel.

UseClearDataChannel:   Allows for the PROT C command.

When this is set, the struct will use a clear (unprotected) data channel by sending the PROT C command to the server.

UseEPSV:   Allows extended passive mode.

When this is set, the extended passive mode will be used.

UseMLSD:   Uses listings for machine processing.

When this is set to True, the struct will list files in the directory using the MLSD command. This command is an extension to the protocol that defines a more standardized and reliable directory listing format. Not all servers support this command. The default value is False.

When set to True, set remote_file to the filemask and call either list_directory or list_directory_long. There is no difference between the two methods when this setting is enabled.

UseMLST:   Uses single file listing for machine processing.

This setting is similar to UseMLSD except that it is valid only for a single file. When this is set to True, the struct will list the file or folder specified by remote_file. If remote_file is not set, a listing for the current directory will be returned. This command is an extension to the protocol, which defines a more standardized and reliable directory listing format, but does so only for a single file or folder. Not all servers support this command. The default value is False.

When set to True, set remote_file to the file or folder you wish to get information about and call either list_directory or list_directory_long. There is no difference between the two methods when this setting is enabled. When both UseMLSD and UseMLST are set, UseMLSD takes precedence.

UseModeZ:   Allows compression to be used when transferring data.

The default value is False. When set to True, the struct will issue the MODE Z command to the FTP server. This will enable deflate compression so that all data transferred are first compressed either by the server (when downloading) or by the struct (when uploading). NOTE: Not all servers support this feature.

UseOldAUTHSSL:   Allows use of the 'AUTH SSL' command instead of 'AUTH TLS'.

By default, the struct uses the standard AUTH TLS command to initiate the SSL handshake with the server. This configuration setting is included for optional support of older servers that support only the AUTH SSL command.

NOTE: Using AUTH SSL instead of AUTH TLS is strongly discouraged because of potential security vulnerabilities. If you must use this configuration setting, please do so very carefully.

UseProtWhenImplicit:   Sends the PROT P command to the server.

When ssl_start_mode is set to sslImplicit, setting this to True will instruct the struct to send the PROT P command to the server. This explicitly tells the server that the data channel will be protected. The default value is True.

UseRemoteHostAddressForPassive:   Instructs the struct to use the address specified by RemoteHost when establishing a data connection.

When this setting is True, the struct will use the address specified by remote_host when establishing a data connection for directory listings and file transfers. This setting is applicable only when AutoSelectDataIP is set to False.

When this setting is False (default) and AutoSelectDataIP is also False, the struct will use the IP address returned by the server when establishing a data connection.

This setting is not applicable when passive is set to False (Active mode).

VirtualHostName:   Sends the HOST command to the server.

Defined in RFC 7151, the HOST command allows user-FTP processes to specify which virtual host to connect to for a server-FTP process that is handling requests for multiple virtual hosts on a single IP address. When this configuration setting is set, the HOST command is sent to the server before authenticating.

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 for establishing a connection and transmitting/receiving data.

EnableHappyEyeballs:   Whether to use the Happy Eyeballs algorithm when connecting.

When enabled, the struct uses the Happy Eyeballs (RFC 8305) algorithm when connecting. Instead of connecting to a single address, all of the addresses returned when resolving the remote_host are collected and sorted so that IPv4 and IPv6 addresses alternate. Connection attempts are then started, in turn, to each address; the delay between starting successive attempts is controlled by the HappyEyeballsDelay setting. The first address to connect successfully is used and any other connection attempts still in progress are aborted.

This setting is a convenient alternative to setting UseIPv6 to 3.

Note that when this setting is enabled, local_port must be 0 and local_host must be empty or "localhost"; the struct fails with an error if either is set to another value.

The default value is false.

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 is given, requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting.

If the FirewallHost setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the 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 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 is specified, the FirewallUser and 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 is set automatically when FirewallType is set to a valid value.

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

FirewallTunnelAuthScheme:   This configuration setting specifies the authentication mechanism to use when authenticating to a tunneling proxy.

Possible values are as follows:

1AuthDigest
3AuthNone
4AuthNTLM
5AuthNegotiate
FirewallType:   Determines the type of firewall to connect through.

Possible values are as follows:

0No firewall (default setting).
1Connect through a tunneling proxy. FirewallPort is set to 80.
2Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
3Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
10Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. 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 is specified, the FirewallUser and 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.

HappyEyeballsDelay:   The delay, in milliseconds, between connection attempts when EnableHappyEyeballs is used.

When EnableHappyEyeballs is enabled (or UseIPv6 is set to 3), the struct may attempt to connect to several candidate addresses concurrently. This setting controls the delay, in milliseconds, before a connection attempt is started to the next candidate address, giving the previous attempt a chance to succeed first.

The default value is 250.

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 will automatically be set to True. A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity as defined by 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 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 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 is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 and 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
3 Happy Eyeballs (the struct will attempt to connect to IPv4 and IPv6 addresses concurrently and use whichever connects first)

Setting this configuration setting to 3 is equivalent to enabling the EnableHappyEyeballs setting. See EnableHappyEyeballs and HappyEyeballsDelay for more details.

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 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 event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.

Enabling this configuration setting has no effect if ssl_provider 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 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:

-----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 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 is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the 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 structs (e.g., TCPServer) see SSLServerCACerts for client structs (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:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
... Intermediate Cert ...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w

... Root Cert ...
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 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 is set to Platform include the following: obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256;CALG_3DES"); Possible values when ssl_provider is set to Platform include the following:

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

  • TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
  • TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
  • TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with 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 structs, and 3072 for server structs. To specify a combination of enabled protocol versions set this config to the binary OR of one or more of the following values:

TLS1.312288 (Hex 3000)
TLS1.23072 (Hex C00) (Default - Client and Server)
TLS1.1768 (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 structs that accept incoming connections. This adheres to industry standards to ensure a secure connection. Client structs 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 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 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 and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
  • If 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 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 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 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 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 event.

If set to True, all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the on_ssl_server_authentication 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 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 structs (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: 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 structs (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: 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 structs (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: 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 structs (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: 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 structs (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: 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 structs (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: 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:

0x00000001Ignore time validity status of certificate.
0x00000002Ignore time validity status of CTL.
0x00000004Ignore non-nested certificate times.
0x00000010Allow unknown certificate authority.
0x00000020Ignore wrong certificate usage.
0x00000100Ignore unknown certificate revocation status.
0x00000200Ignore unknown CTL signer revocation status.
0x00000400Ignore unknown certificate authority revocation status.
0x00000800Ignore unknown root revocation status.
0x00008000Allow test root certificate.
0x00004000Trust test root certificate.
0x80000000Ignore 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 structs (e.g., TCPClient) see SSLClientCACerts for server structs (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:

-----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 is set to Internal and 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: 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 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 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 structs 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 is set to True, any method that does not complete within timeout 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 section.
