PowerBuilder provides two system objects for use with secure connections:
SSLServiceProvider service object The SSLServiceProvider object is an implementation of the EAServer CtsSecurity::SSLServiceProvider interface. For more information about this interface, you can view the EAServer interface repository documentation in a Web browser by connecting to your server at http://hostname:portnumber/ir.
You use the GetGlobalProperty and SetGlobalProperty functions of the SSLServiceProvider object to configure global SSL properties. For a description of the global properties you can set and/or get, see “SSL properties”.
You can also set SSL properties at the connection level by specifying them in an options string for the Connection or JaguarORB object. Interactive applications typically use the SSLServiceProvider object in conjunction with the SSLCallback object. Applications that run without user interaction typically configure SSL settings at the connection level. For information about setting properties at the connection level, see “ORB properties”.
SSLCallback object To enable EAServer to request additional information from the client using a callback method, you can implement your own logic for the callback methods in an instance of the SSLCallBack object. The SSLCallback object is an implementation of the EAServer CtsSecurity::SSLCallback interface.
