Hi Daniel,

I have gone through the curl_easy_setopt man page and its CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION option. I have also gone through the curlx.c program.

But the CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION option says that the function call back is called just before the SSL initialization. I want a hack where I can extract the server certificate. This step will come only after curl_easy_perform. How do I get to this functionality?

In one of your mailing list what I have found is as written below:-

No.

No.

Well, they're not exactly planned, but I wouldn't mind applying patches that
would bring these features.

Is this patch applied in the current versions?
Thanks,

I already did that. Didn't it suffice? docs/example/curlx.c
