Remarks

The SSLClient Class supports Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) connections. When connecting over Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) the SSLServerAuthentication event allows you to check the server identity and other security attributes. The SSLStatus event provides information about the SSL handshake. Additional SSL-related settings are also supported through the Config method.

Our main goal in designing SSLClient was ease of use. The class has a minimum number of properties and five events: Connected, DataIn, Disconnected, ReadyToSend, and Error. The events are relatively self-explanatory.

The connection is attempted by calling the Connect method or setting the Connected property to True, and then waiting for the Connected event. The destination is defined by setting RemoteHost and RemotePort. Data are sent by calling the Send method with Text as a parameter.

To disconnect, you just call the Disconnect method or set the Connected property to False. The Linger property controls how the connection is terminated.

The operation of the class is almost completely asynchronous. All of the calls, except the ones that deal with domain name resolution, operate through asynchronous messages (no blocking calls). The gain in performance is considerable compared with using blocking calls.

AcceptData Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

This property indicates whether data reception is currently enabled.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getAcceptData();

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 1 );

Default Value

true

Remarks

This property indicates whether data reception is currently enabled. When false, data reception is disabled and the DataIn event will not fire. Use the PauseData and ProcessData methods to pause and resume data reception.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

BytesSent Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

This property includes the number of bytes actually sent after a call to the SendBytes method.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getBytesSent();

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 2 );

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property indicates how many bytes were sent after the last call to SendBytes. Please check the SendBytes method for more information.

Note: that BytesSent will always return 0 when the class is operating in synchronous mode (i.e., the Timeout property is set to a positive value.)

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Integer

Connected Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

This property indicates whether the class is connected.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getConnected();

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 3 );

Default Value

false

Remarks

This property indicates whether the class is connected to the remote host. Use the Connect and Disconnect methods to manage the connection.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

EOL Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

This property is used to break the incoming data stream into chunks separated by EOL .

Object Oriented Interface

public function getEOL();
public function setEOL($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 4 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 4, $value );

Default Value

''

Remarks

This property is used to define boundaries in the input stream using the value of the property.

This property is especially useful with ASCII files. Setting it to CRLF ("\r\n") enables the incoming ASCII text stream to split into defined lines. In this case, one event is fired for each line received (as well as in packet boundaries). The CRLF ("\r\n") bytes are discarded.

This property is a binary string. Notably, this means that it can be more than one byte long, and it can contain NULL bytes.

Data Type

Binary String

FirewallAutoDetect Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

Whether to automatically detect and use firewall system settings, if available.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getFirewallAutoDetect();
public function setFirewallAutoDetect($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 5 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 5, $value );

Default Value

false

Remarks

Whether to automatically detect and use firewall system settings, if available.

Data Type

Boolean

FirewallType Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

The type of firewall to connect through.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getFirewallType();
public function setFirewallType($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 6 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 6, $value );

Default Value

Data Type

Integer

FirewallHost Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

The name or IP address of the firewall (optional).

Object Oriented Interface

public function getFirewallHost();
public function setFirewallHost($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 7 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 7, $value );

Default Value

''

Remarks

The name or IP address of the firewall (optional). If a FirewallHost is given, the requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting.

If this property is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, this property is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, the class fails with an error.

Data Type

String

FirewallPassword Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

A password if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getFirewallPassword();
public function setFirewallPassword($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 8 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 8, $value );

Default Value

''

Remarks

A password if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall. If FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword properties are used to connect and authenticate to the given firewall. If the authentication fails, the class fails with an error.

Data Type

String

FirewallPort Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port for the firewall Host .

Object Oriented Interface

public function getFirewallPort();
public function setFirewallPort($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 9 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 9, $value );

Default Value

0

Remarks

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port for the firewall FirewallHost. See the description of the FirewallHost property for details.

Note: This property is set automatically when FirewallType is set to a valid value. See the description of the FirewallType property for details.

Data Type

Integer

FirewallUser Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

A username if authentication is to be used when connecting through a firewall.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getFirewallUser();
public function setFirewallUser($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 10 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 10, $value );

Default Value

''

Remarks

A username if authentication is to be used when connecting through a firewall. If FirewallHost is specified, this property and the FirewallPassword property are used to connect and authenticate to the given Firewall. If the authentication fails, the class fails with an error.

Data Type

String

KeepAlive Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

When True, KEEPALIVE packets are enabled (for long connections).

Object Oriented Interface

public function getKeepAlive();
public function setKeepAlive($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 11 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 11, $value );

Default Value

false

Remarks

The KeepAlive enables the SO_KEEPALIVE option on the socket. This option prevents long connections from timing out in case of inactivity.

Note: System Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack implementations are not required to support SO_KEEPALIVE.

Data Type

Boolean

Linger Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

When set to True, this property ensures that connections are terminated gracefully.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getLinger();
public function setLinger($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 12 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 12, $value );

Default Value

true

Remarks

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 class 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.

Data Type

Boolean

LocalHost Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

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

Object Oriented Interface

public function getLocalHost();
public function setLocalHost($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 13 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 13, $value );

Default Value

''

Remarks

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

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

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

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

Data Type

String

LocalPort Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

The TCP port in the local host where the class binds.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getLocalPort();
public function setLocalPort($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 14 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 14, $value );

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the class to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

Setting this property to 0 (default) enables the system to choose an open port at random. The chosen port will be returned by the LocalPort property after the connection is established.

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

This property is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port on the client side.

Data Type

Integer

ReadyToSend Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

This property indicates whether the class is ready to send data.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getReadyToSend();

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 15 );

Default Value

false

Remarks

This property indicates that the underlying Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP subsystem is ready to accept data. This is True after connecting to the remote host and will become False after a failed SendBytes.

After a failed SendBytes, the ReadyToSend event will fire and this property will be True when data can be sent again.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

RecordLength Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

This property indicates the length of received data records.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getRecordLength();

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 16 );

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property holds the current record length set by ChangeRecordLength. When this value is a positive number, the class will accumulate data until RecordLength is reached and only then will fire the DataIn event with the data of length RecordLength. This allows data to be received as records of known length. This value can be changed at any time by calling ChangeRecordLength, including within the DataIn event.

A value of 0 (default) means this setting is not used.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Integer

RemoteHost Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

This property includes the address of the remote host. Domain names are resolved to IP addresses.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getRemoteHost();
public function setRemoteHost($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 17 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 17, $value );

Default Value

''

Remarks

This property specifies the IP address (IP number in dotted internet format) or the domain name of the remote host. It is set before a connection is attempted and cannot be changed once a connection is established.

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

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

Example. Connecting:

TCPClientControl.RemoteHost = "MyHostNameOrIP" TCPClientControl.RemotePort = 777 TCPClientControl.Connected = true

Data Type

String

RemotePort Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

This property includes the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port in the remote host.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getRemotePort();
public function setRemotePort($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 18 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 18, $value );

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property specifies a service port on the remote host to connect to.

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

Data Type

Integer

SingleLineMode Property (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

This property includes a special mode for line-oriented protocols.

Object Oriented Interface

public function getSingleLineMode();
public function setSingleLineMode($value);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 19 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 19, $value );

Default Value

false

Remarks

When this property is set to True, the class treats the incoming data stream as lines separated by carriage return line feed (CRLF), CR, or LF. The EOL property is ignored.

When this property is set to True, AcceptData automatically will be set to False. Please refer to the GetLine method for more information.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

ipworksssl_sslclient_get($res, 102 );
ipworksssl_sslclient_set($res, 102, $value );

Default Value

60

Remarks

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

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

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

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

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

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

Data Type

Integer

ChangeRecordLength Method (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

This method changes the length of received data records.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doChangeRecordLength($recordlength);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_do_changerecordlength($res, $recordlength);

Remarks

This method defines the length of data records to be received (in bytes).

If RecordLength is set to a positive value, the class will accumulate data until RecordLength bytes of data are received and only then will it fire the DataIn event with data of length RecordLength. This allows data to be received as records of known length. This method can be called at any time to change the record length, including within the DataIn event.

A value of 0 (default) means this functionality is not used.

Config Method (IPWorksSSL_SSLClient Class)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doConfig($configurationstring);

Procedural Interface

ipworksssl_sslclient_do_config($res, $configurationstring);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

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

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

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.
