get-ssl-peer-certificate

Arguments: stream

This operator was added in an update release in late March, 2007.

get-ssl-peer-certificate returns an x509-certificate object representing the certificate that the peer supplied. If the peer did not supply a certificate, nil is returned. The x509-certificate is created the first time this function is called on a stream.

stream must be an SSL client or server stream (such as is created by make-ssl-server-stream and make-ssl-client-stream).

Note that get-ssl-peer-certificate automatically calls ssl-do-handshake if SSL handshake has not already occurred.
