BeforeCertificateValidation Event

Reports the start of certificate validation.

Syntax

class CertificateValidatorBeforeCertificateValidationEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Cert();
  const QString &CACert();
  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void BeforeCertificateValidation(CertificateValidatorBeforeCertificateValidationEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass CertificateValidator and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireBeforeCertificateValidation(CertificateValidatorBeforeCertificateValidationEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

This event is fired when the class is about to start validating Cert with CACert.

A 'validation' is a single step of validating a certificate with its CA certificate. A row of consecutive validations of the same certificate with different CAs are grouped into 'processings.'

The firing of AfterCertificateValidation marks the end of the certificate validation step.
