77.In openssl/ssl.h
78.Ft STACK_OF(X509_NAME) *
79.Fn SSL_load_client_CA_file "const char *file"

87.Fa "STACK_OF(X509_NAME) *stack"
88.Fa "const char *dir"
89.Fc
90.Sh DESCRIPTION
91.Fn SSL_load_client_CA_file
92reads PEM formatted certificates from
93.Fa file
94and returns a new
95.Vt STACK_OF(X509_NAME)
96with the subject names found.
97While the name suggests the specific usage as a support function for
98.Xr SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list 3 ,
99it is not limited to CA certificates.
100.Pp
101.Fn SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack
102is similar except that the names are added to the existing
103.Fa stack .
104.Pp
105.Fn SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack
106calls
107.Fn SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack
108on every file in the directory
109.Fa dir .
110.Pp
111If a name is already on the stack, all these functions skip it and
112do not add it again.
113.Sh RETURN VALUES
114.Fn SSL_load_client_CA_file
115returns a pointer to the new
116.Vt STACK_OF(X509_NAME)
117or
118.Dv NULL on failure .
119.Pp
120.Fn SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack
121and
122.Fn SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack
123return 1 for success or 0 for failure.
124.Pp
125All these functions treat empty files and directories as failures.
126.Pp
127In some cases of failure, the reason can be determined with
128.Xr ERR_get_error 3 .
129.Sh EXAMPLES
130Load names of CAs from a file and use it as a client CA list:
131.Bd -literal
132SSL_CTX *ctx;
133STACK_OF(X509_NAME) *cert_names;
134\&...
135cert_names = SSL_load_client_CA_file("/path/to/CAfile.pem");
136if (cert_names != NULL)
137 SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list(ctx, cert_names);
138else
139 error_handling();
140\&...

148.Sh HISTORY
149.Fn SSL_load_client_CA_file
150first appeared in SSLeay 0.8.0 and has been available since
151.Ox 2.4 .
152.Pp
153.Fn SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack
154and
155.Fn SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack
156first appeared in OpenSSL 0.9.2b and have been available since
157.Ox 2.6 .
158.Sh AUTHORS
159.Fn SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack
160and
161.Fn SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack
162were written by
163.An Ben Laurie Aq Mt ben@openssl.org
164in 1999.
165.Sh BUGS
166In some cases of failure, for example for empty files and directories,
167these functions fail to report an error, in the sense that
168.Xr ERR_get_error 3
169does not work.
170.Pp
171Even in case of failure, for example when parsing one of the
172files or certificates fails,
173.Fn SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack
174and
175.Fn SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack
176may still have added some certificates to the stack.
177.Pp
178The behaviour of
179.Fn SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack
180is non-deterministic.
181If parsing one file fails, parsing of the whole directory is aborted.
182Files in the directory are not parsed in any specific order.
183For example, adding an empty file to
184.Fa dir
185may or may not cause some of the other files to be ignored.
