Support for openssl trusted_first flag
Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2011 17:47:11 +0000
Dear all,
Openssl defines a flag, -trusted_first, which causes it to verify
certificates using a trusted certificate store, even if an untrusted
store is also available. This is described in a patch at
<http://marc.info/?l=openssl-cvs&m=126710063626226>.
I've created a patch for cURL that adds a --trusted_first flag, allowing
(lib)curl to use this openssl functionality.
It's probably not perfect, and I haven't updated all the man pages and
help, but it seems to work and I hope it's useful.
The patch applies cleanly to cURL 7.23.1.
