The InvStatement class is a single class that supports the SignOn and Investment Statement Download functions of Open Financial eXchange, as described by the OFX Specification version 1.0.2.

Syntax

InvStatement

Remarks

This class adds detailed investment account statement download functionality to your desktop application, or allows your web application to fetch a user's investment statement without having to redirect to another website. All downloads are done using a secure HTTPS Post to send account sign on information to a financial institution. The InvStatement class receives the secure response and parses the response into its properties.

To use the InvStatement class first identify the financial institution by setting the FIId, FIOrganization and FIUrl, properties. Next identify the OFX user and application by setting the OFXUser, OFXPassword, OFXAppId and OFXAppVersion properties. Next set the BrokerId and AccountId properties to the appropriate values to identify the account for which you wish to download a statement.

The following properties provide additional control over the request:

IncludeTransactionsWhether you want the investment transactions to be included in the statement download.
StartDateTo constrain the investment transaction list.
EndDateTo constrain the investment transaction list.
IncludePositionsWhether you want the positions to be included in the statement download.
AsOfDateTo constrain the positions list.
IncludeOpenOrdersWhether you want the open orders to be included in the statement download.
IncludeBalancesWhether you want the account balances to be included in the statement download.

Once you have finished setting the properties that describe the statement you wish to download, use the GetStatement method to build and transmit the request automatically. When the response returns, the transaction(s) properties will be populated automatically, together with StartDate, EndDate and any other data the investment statement includes.

The server's response consists of five blocks of information:

  • Transactions: a combination of bank transaction detail records and investment transaction detail records. Transactions only within the specified start and stop dates are sent.
  • Positions: positions a user has at a brokerage. Each statement response contains a complete set of position records, even if no transactions occurred in the requested statement period for a particular holding.
  • Balances: current balances typically reported on an FI statement, such as cash balance or buying power. They can also convey other items of interest, such as current interest rates.
  • Open Orders: current open trading orders that a user has at a brokerage.
  • Securities: any security referenced in either transactions, positions, or open orders.

int inebank_invstatement_setincludeimages(void* lpObj, int bIncludeImages);
bool GetIncludeImages();
int SetIncludeImages(bool bIncludeImages);

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

If False (default value), the server will not return any image references in the response.

Otherwise, if the FI supports image download service :

  • when the GetStatement method is called, the server will return the image references for each transaction (e.g., check image).
  • when the GetClosingInfo method is called, the server will return a reference to the statement closing information image.

These references can then be used as parameters when the GetImage method is called.

This is optional and supported in OFX 2.1.1 version only (i.e., if this is requested, the OFXVersion should be set to '211').

Note: Clients may request images in statement download and/or closing requests in various message sets. But not all FIs support image download. Prior to requesting these images, clients must verify that support exists on the server for image download. This is indicated by the presence of the IMAGEMSGSET aggregate in the profile response, as well as the IMAGEPROF aggregate in the profile response for the specific message set in question.

For instance, if a client wishes to request transaction images in the banking statement download request, the client must verify the presence of IMAGEMSGSET in the profile as well as transaction image support in the IMAGEPROF aggregate in the BANKMSGSET in the profile. Image download requests are allowed only in OFX 2.1.1 in the Banking, Credit Card, Loan and Investments message sets.

To verify whether your FI supports this service, you should check its profile (by calling the GetProfile method in FIProfile class) and check the values of FIMessageSetTxImage and FIMessageSetClosingInfoImage for each message set (bank, credit card, loan and investment).

OFXAccessKey Property (InvStatement Class)

Access key value received after a MFA authentication in a previous signon.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetOFXAccessKey();
int SetOFXAccessKey(const char* lpszOFXAccessKey); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR GetOFXAccessKey();
INT SetOFXAccessKey(LPCWSTR lpszOFXAccessKey);
char* inebank_invstatement_getofxaccesskey(void* lpObj);
int inebank_invstatement_setofxaccesskey(void* lpObj, const char* lpszOFXAccessKey);
QString GetOFXAccessKey();
int SetOFXAccessKey(QString qsOFXAccessKey);

Default Value

""

Remarks

This might be returned in the server response after a MFA authentication (i.e. MFA challenge question/answer pairs were validated by the server when the SendChallengeAnswers method in FIProfile class was called).

To prevent servers from needing to authenticate the user in each OFX request, the server may respond to a correct set of challenge answers with a OFXAccessKey on the signon response (when the SendChallengeAnswers method in FIProfile class was called).

The server determines the contents of this optional element. On each subsequent signon request, the client will send the last value of the OFXAccessKey it has received, even after the end of the current session. The server has the option to respond to any subsequent request with a 3000 error code, requiring the client to send the MFA challenge questions request again (by calling the RequestChallengeQuestions method in FIProfile class). This allows the server to determine the lifetime of the OFXAccessKey.

Data Type

String

int inebank_invstatement_setofxresponse(void* lpObj, const char* lpszOFXResponse);
QString GetOFXResponse();
int SetOFXResponse(QString qsOFXResponse);

Default Value

""

Remarks

int inebank_invstatement_setofxversion(void* lpObj, const char* lpszOFXVersion);
QString GetOFXVersion();
int SetOFXVersion(QString qsOFXVersion);

Default Value

"102"

Remarks

This is the OFX API version used in all requests sent to your FI server (such as 1.0.2, 2.0.1, 2.1.1, etc.). Valid values: 102, 103, 200, 201, 203, 210, 211. Note that not all OFX Versions are supported by FIs.

Note: If the OFXVersion is set to 1x, the request and the response are going to be in SGML format. If set to 2x, the request will be in XML format (the response format depends on the FI's server capabilities). Note that if the OFX FI server does not support version 2x, the server will return an error (such as 'Bad Request').

Certain services are available only for a specific OFX version. For example, image download, is available only in OFX version 2.1.1.

Remarks

If it finds any issues with the certificate presented by the server, the class will normally terminate the connection with an error.

You may override this behavior by supplying a value for SSLAcceptServerCert. If the certificate supplied in SSLAcceptServerCert is the same as the certificate presented by the server, then the server certificate is accepted unconditionally, and the connection will continue normally.

Note: This functionality is provided only for cases in which you otherwise know that you are communicating with the right server. If used improperly, this property may create a security breach. Use it at your own risk.

SSLProvider Property (InvStatement Class)

The Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) implementation to use.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetSSLProvider();
int SetSSLProvider(int iSSLProvider); Unicode (Windows) INT GetSSLProvider();
INT SetSSLProvider(INT iSSLProvider);

Possible Values

SSLP_AUTOMATIC(0), 
SSLP_PLATFORM(1),
SSLP_INTERNAL(2)
int inebank_invstatement_getsslprovider(void* lpObj);
int inebank_invstatement_setsslprovider(void* lpObj, int iSSLProvider);
int GetSSLProvider();
int SetSSLProvider(int iSSLProvider);

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use. In most cases the default value of 0 (Automatic) is recommended and should not be changed. When set to 0 (Automatic), the class will select whether to use the platform implementation or the internal implementation depending on the operating system as well as the TLS version being used.

Possible values are as follows:

0 (sslpAutomatic - default)Automatically selects the appropriate implementation.
1 (sslpPlatform) Uses the platform/system implementation.
2 (sslpInternal) Uses the internal implementation.
Additional Notes

In most cases using the default value (Automatic) is recommended. The class will select a provider depending on the current platform.

When Automatic is selected, on Windows, the class will use the platform implementation. On Linux/macOS, the class will use the internal implementation. When TLS 1.3 is enabled via SSLEnabledProtocols, the internal implementation is used on all platforms.

StartDate Property (InvStatement Class)

Start date of requested transaction list.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetStartDate();
int SetStartDate(const char* lpszStartDate); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR GetStartDate();
INT SetStartDate(LPCWSTR lpszStartDate);
char* inebank_invstatement_getstartdate(void* lpObj);
int inebank_invstatement_setstartdate(void* lpObj, const char* lpszStartDate);
QString GetStartDate();
int SetStartDate(QString qsStartDate);

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is a string representing the date at which to start listing transactions on the statement. Use this property and EndDate to constrain the list of transactions retrieved when calling GetStatement. When provided in the request, StartDate value will be echoed in the server's response.

All input dates should be entered in the format specified by DateFormat. For example, if the DateFormat is set to "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss" (default value), an input date should look like: 09/30/2009 12:00:00 AM.

This format specifies also how the returned dates are going to get parsed.

Note: This property is optional and can be specified when IncludeTransactions property is set to True.

Data Type

String

StatementDate Property (InvStatement Class)

Date and time for the statement download.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetStatementDate();

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR GetStatementDate();
char* inebank_invstatement_getstatementdate(void* lpObj);
QString GetStatementDate();

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property is always returned in the server's response when calling the GetStatement method.

All input dates should be entered in the format specified by DateFormat. For example, if the DateFormat is set to "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss" (default value), an input date should look like: 09/30/2009 12:00:00 AM.

This format specifies also how the returned dates are going to get parsed.

This property is read-only.

Data Type

String

Timeout Property (InvStatement Class)

The timeout for the class.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetTimeout();
int SetTimeout(int iTimeout); Unicode (Windows) INT GetTimeout();
INT SetTimeout(INT iTimeout);
int inebank_invstatement_gettimeout(void* lpObj);
int inebank_invstatement_settimeout(void* lpObj, int iTimeout);
int GetTimeout();
int SetTimeout(int iTimeout);

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, the class will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The class will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not freeze and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the class fails with an error.

Note: By default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, that is, the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

Data Type

Integer

Data Type

InEBankInvTransactionDetail

Config Method (InvStatement Class)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* Config(const char* lpszConfigurationString);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR Config(LPCWSTR lpszConfigurationString);
char* inebank_invstatement_config(void* lpObj, const char* lpszConfigurationString);
QString Config(const QString& qsConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

GetClosingInfo Method (InvStatement Class)

Download a statement closing information for an investment account.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetClosingInfo();

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetClosingInfo();
int inebank_invstatement_getclosinginfo(void* lpObj);
int GetClosingInfo();

Remarks

This is applicable and supported in OFX 2.1.1 version only (i.e., when this method is called, the OFXVersion should be set to '211').

This function generates the Signon and Investment Statement Closing Information request page, submits it to the financial institution via secure HTTPS Post, receives and parses the closing statement information.

The server response includes the FI transaction unique Id and image data information (when available).

The following properties should be set when this method is called:

The client can also specify a date range (by setting the StartDate and EndDate properties) to limit the number of closing information aggregates that the server returns. If the client does not specify a date range, the server returns as many closing information aggregates as it can (which will be stored in ClosingDetails).

If you want the server to return an image reference for each statement closing information, and if the server supports this service, you will have to set the IncludeImages to True.

The following read-only properties are populated as a result of parsing the statement response:

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

GetImage Method (InvStatement Class)

Request and retrieve a check or statement image (if available).

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetImage(const char* lpszImageRef, const char* lpszImageRefType, int *lpSize = NULL);

Unicode (Windows)
LPSTR GetImage(LPCWSTR lpszImageRef, LPCWSTR lpszImageRefType, LPINT lpSize = NULL);
char* inebank_invstatement_getimage(void* lpObj, const char* lpszImageRef, const char* lpszImageRefType, int *lpSize);
QByteArray GetImage(const QString& qsImageRef, const QString& qsImageRefType);

Remarks

This function generates the Signon and Download Image request page, submits it to the financial institution via secure HTTPS Post.

The requested image of a check or statement closing information is identified by ImageRef parameter. The type of this image reference should be specified by ImageRefType parameter.

Possible values and their meanings for the ImageRefType parameter are:

OPAQUE (default value) The class will send an OFX request to access this image. This request will be in the form of a normal OFX request (complete with Signon) and the login credentials are required to authenticate the client. However, whereas the request file contains typical OFX syntax, the successful response returned is in the form of raw bytes. If a failure condition occurs, the class will return an error with a specific message.
URL The URL identifies a service on an FI server that can accept an image request and produce a response. The class issues an HTTP request (over SSL) to the URL specified by the ImageRef parameter. The client will then authenticate. Once this authentication takes place, the image can be displayed
FORMURL The class issues an HTTP request (over SSL), with encoded data specified in the URL retrieved from the ImageRef parameter. The image can then be displayed.

If you want the server to return image references for each transaction or statement closing information, and if the server supports image download service via OFX, you will have to set the IncludeImages to True when either GetStatement or GetClosingInfo method is called.

If available, then you can access that particular image by calling the GetImage method, where ImageRef parameter value is set to the image reference stored in ImageRef (or ImageRef) and the ImageRefType parameter is set to the respective ImageRefType (or ImageRefType) corresponding to the requested check or statement.

Upon successful response, the image content will be returned by this method. If you want the image to be saved to a file, you can set the ImageFileName to a desired name without specifying the type. The file type will be set automatically depending on the image type supported by the server. Possible image types are: jpeg, tiff, png, pdf.

Otherwise, the class will throw an error.

Image download is available only for OFX version 2.1.1. When this method is called, the OFXVersion is automatically set to '211'.

Note: Clients may request images in statement download and/or closing requests in various message sets. But not all FIs support image download. Prior to requesting these images, clients must verify that support exists on the server for image download. This is indicated by the presence of the IMAGEMSGSET aggregate in the profile response, as well as the IMAGEPROF aggregate in the profile response for the specific message set in question.

For instance, if a client wishes to request transaction images in the banking statement download request, the client must verify the presence of IMAGEMSGSET in the profile as well as transaction image support in the IMAGEPROF aggregate in the BANKMSGSET in the profile. Image download requests are allowed only in OFX 2.1.1 in the Banking, Credit Card, Loan and Investments message sets.

To verify whether your FI supports this service, you should check its profile (by calling the GetProfile method in FIProfile class) and check the values of FIMessageSetTxImage and FIMessageSetClosingInfoImage for each message set (bank, credit card, loan and investment).

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a Binary String value (with length lpSize); after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

GetStatement Method (InvStatement Class)

Downloads statement for an investment account.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetStatement();

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetStatement();
int inebank_invstatement_getstatement(void* lpObj);
int GetStatement();

Remarks

This function generates the Signon and Investment Statement request page, submits it to the financial institution via secure HTTPS Post, receives and parses the investment statement.

This allows a customer to receive investment transactions, positions, open orders, balances and list of securities that are typically part of a regular paper statement. By using the transaction IDs supplied by FIs, OFX makes it possible that each transaction is downloaded only once. Calling of this method requires to designate an account for the download and to indicate what type of data should be downloaded.

The following properties should be set when this method is called:

  • FIId (required)
  • FIOrganization (required)
  • FIUrl (required)
  • OFXAppId (required)
  • OFXAppVersion (required)
  • OFXVersion (required if 2.x OFX version is the one supported by your FI)
  • OFXUser (required)
  • OFXPassword (required)
  • BrokerId (required)
  • AccountId (required)
  • IncludeTransactions (required if the user does not want to include bank transactions in the current statement download - True by default)
  • IncludePositions (required if the user does not want to include positions as well in the current statement download - True by default)
  • IncludeOpenOrders (required if the user does not want to include open orders as well in the current statement download - True by default)
  • IncludeBalances (required if the user does not want to include balances as well in the current statement download - True by default)

If the user wants to download investment bank transactions (i.e., IncludeTransactions is set to True), a date range (that the transactions fall within) can be specified by setting the StartDate and EndDate. Otherwise, the server will use default values if no dates are supplied.

The following information is returned in server's response:

Date and time for statement (StatementDate).
Default currency for statement (CurrencyCode).
Account identifier (as entered in the request).
Investment transactions (only within the specified start and end dates) including banking transactions, which are a combination of bank transaction detail records and investment transaction detail records.
Open orders - current open trading orders that a user has at a brokerage.This is stored in OpenOrders.
Positions - positions a user has at a brokerage. Each statement response must contain a complete set of position records, even if no transactions occurred in the requested statement period for a particular holding.This is stored in Positions.
Account balances - current balances typically reported on an FI statement, such as cash balance or buying power. They can also convey other numbers of interest, such as current interest rates.This is stored in Balances.
Available Cash Balance (AvailableCash).
Short Balance (ShortBalance)
Margin Balance (MarginBalance).
Marketing message (MarketingInfo).
List of securities - any security referenced in either transactions, positions, open orders or explicitly requested. This is stored in Securities.

For a full list of all read-only properties that are populated as a result of parsing the statement response, please look at OFXDataFile method remarks.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

ReadOFXDataFile Method (InvStatement Class)

The following read-only properties are populated as a result of parsing the data file:

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

Reset Method (InvStatement Class)

Reset the internal state of the class and all properties to their default values.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int Reset();

Unicode (Windows)
INT Reset();
int inebank_invstatement_reset(void* lpObj);
int Reset();

Remarks

The Reset method does not have any parameters and does not return any value.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

WriteOFXDataFile Method (InvStatement Class)

Writes the OFX response sent by the server to a file.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int WriteOFXDataFile(const char* lpszFileName);

Unicode (Windows)
INT WriteOFXDataFile(LPCWSTR lpszFileName);
int inebank_invstatement_writeofxdatafile(void* lpObj, const char* lpszFileName);
int WriteOFXDataFile(const QString& qsFileName);

ConnectionStatus Event (InvStatement Class)

Fired to indicate changes in the connection state.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireConnectionStatus(InvStatementConnectionStatusEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *ConnectionEvent;
int StatusCode;
const char *Description; int reserved; } InvStatementConnectionStatusEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireConnectionStatus(InvStatementConnectionStatusEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPCWSTR ConnectionEvent;
INT StatusCode;
LPCWSTR Description; INT reserved; } InvStatementConnectionStatusEventParams;

class InvStatementConnectionStatusEventParams {
public:
  const QString &ConnectionEvent();

  int StatusCode();

  const QString &Description();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void ConnectionStatus(InvStatementConnectionStatusEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass InvStatement and override this emitter function. virtual int FireConnectionStatus(InvStatementConnectionStatusEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

This event is fired when the connection state changes: for example, completion of a firewall or proxy connection or completion of a security handshake.

The ConnectionEvent parameter indicates the type of connection event. Values may include the following:

Firewall connection complete.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or S/Shell handshake complete (where applicable).
Remote host connection complete.
Remote host disconnected.
SSL or S/Shell connection broken.
Firewall host disconnected.
StatusCode has the error code returned by the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. Description contains a description of this code. The value of StatusCode is equal to the value of the error.

Error Event (InvStatement Class)

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireError(InvStatementErrorEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
int ErrorCode;
const char *Description; int reserved; } InvStatementErrorEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireError(InvStatementErrorEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
INT ErrorCode;
LPCWSTR Description; INT reserved; } InvStatementErrorEventParams;
#define EID_INVSTATEMENT_ERROR 2

virtual INT INEBANK_CALL FireError(INT &iErrorCode, LPSTR &lpszDescription);
class InvStatementErrorEventParams {
public:
  int ErrorCode();

  const QString &Description();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void Error(InvStatementErrorEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass InvStatement and override this emitter function. virtual int FireError(InvStatementErrorEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the class fails with an error.

The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

SSLServerAuthentication Event (InvStatement Class)

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireSSLServerAuthentication(InvStatementSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *CertEncoded; int lenCertEncoded;
const char *CertSubject;
const char *CertIssuer;
const char *Status;
int Accept; int reserved; } InvStatementSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireSSLServerAuthentication(InvStatementSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPCSTR CertEncoded; INT lenCertEncoded;
LPCWSTR CertSubject;
LPCWSTR CertIssuer;
LPCWSTR Status;
BOOL Accept; INT reserved; } InvStatementSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams;
#define EID_INVSTATEMENT_SSLSERVERAUTHENTICATION 3

virtual INT INEBANK_CALL FireSSLServerAuthentication(LPSTR &lpCertEncoded, INT &lenCertEncoded, LPSTR &lpszCertSubject, LPSTR &lpszCertIssuer, LPSTR &lpszStatus, BOOL &bAccept);
class InvStatementSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams {
public:

  const QString &CertSubject();

  const QString &CertIssuer();

  const QString &Status();

  bool Accept();
  void SetAccept(bool bAccept);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void SSLServerAuthentication(InvStatementSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass InvStatement and override this emitter function. virtual int FireSSLServerAuthentication(InvStatementSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

SSLStatus Event (InvStatement Class)

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireSSLStatus(InvStatementSSLStatusEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *Message; int reserved; } InvStatementSSLStatusEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireSSLStatus(InvStatementSSLStatusEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPCWSTR Message; INT reserved; } InvStatementSSLStatusEventParams;
#define EID_INVSTATEMENT_SSLSTATUS 4

virtual INT INEBANK_CALL FireSSLStatus(LPSTR &lpszMessage);
class InvStatementSSLStatusEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Message();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void SSLStatus(InvStatementSSLStatusEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass InvStatement and override this emitter function. virtual int FireSSLStatus(InvStatementSSLStatusEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.

BalanceDetail Type

This type corresponds to a single investment balance in the list of balances.

Syntax

InEBankBalanceDetail (declared in inebank.h)

Remarks

BalanceDetail objects are used when listing balances (if any) returned by the FI OFX server when the GetStatement, ReadOFXDataFile, or WriteOFXDataFile methods are called.

The following fields are available:

Fields

Aggregate
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

Wrapper for an investment balance.

This allows an FI to send any number of balances to the user, complete with description and Help text. The intent is to capture the same type of balance information present on the first page of many FI brokerage statements. This aggregate can also be used to send margin call information.

This property is an optional field. When calling the GetStatement method, if the server's response does not contain this value, querying the property will return an empty string.

Aggregates are pieces of XML taken from the financial institution's original response. They contain elements that correspond to many of the class's fields. However, some of these elements, and/or their potential values, may not be supported by the class. Any user who wishes to use unsupported fields may use this aggregate property to parse out the desired data either via our OFXAggregate class or any other means.

Note: The original data from the server is returned as SGML or XML (depending on the value of OFXVersion that FI supports. If the original data is returned in SGML format, the class internally manipulates these responses into the equivalent XML format by inserting close element tags (e.g., "</ACCTID>") into the data as it comes from the server.

Amount
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

The value of the current balance. Interpretation of this depends on the value of BalType field:

Value of BalTypeFormat of Amount
DOLLARFormatted as DDDD.cc
PERCENTFormatted as XXXX.YYYY
NUMBERFormatted as is

If a balance list is present in the server response, the Amount is always present in the response for each balance listed.

BalType
int (read-only)

Default Value: 0

The type of balance. Possible values for balance types and their meanings are as follows:

btDOLLAR (0)Dollar (Value formatted as DDDD.cc)
btPERCENT (1)percentage (Value formatted as XXXX.YYYY)
btNUMBER (2)number (Value formatted as is)
ptOTHER (255)Other

If a balance list is present in the server response, the BalType is always present in the response for each balance listed.

Description
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

A description of the current balance. If a balance list is present in the server response, the Description is always present in the response for each balance listed.

Name
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

The name for the current balance. If a balance list is present in the server response, the Name is always present in the response for each balance listed.

TypeDescription
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

A description of the balance type. This is a string representation of the value returned by the BalType field.

The corresponding description for each balance type are as follows:

btDOLLAR (0)Dollar
btPERCENT (1)Dollar
btNUMBER (2)Number
btOTHER (255)Other

Certificate Type

This is the digital certificate being used.

Syntax

InEBankCertificate (declared in inebank.h)

Remarks

This type describes the current digital certificate. The certificate may be a public or private key. The fields are used to identify or select certificates.

The following fields are available:

Fields

EffectiveDate
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

The date on which this certificate becomes valid. Before this date, it is not valid. The date is localized to the system's time zone. The following example illustrates the format of an encoded date:

23-Jan-2000 15:00:00.

ExpirationDate
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

The date on which the certificate expires. After this date, the certificate will no longer be valid. The date is localized to the system's time zone. The following example illustrates the format of an encoded date:

23-Jan-2001 15:00:00.

ExtendedKeyUsage
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

A comma-delimited list of extended key usage identifiers. These are the same as ASN.1 object identifiers (OIDs).

Fingerprint
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

The hex-encoded, 16-byte MD5 fingerprint of the certificate. This property is primarily used for keys which do not have a corresponding X.509 public certificate, such as PEM keys that only contain a private key. It is commonly used for SSH keys.

The following example illustrates the format: bc:2a:72:af:fe:58:17:43:7a:5f:ba:5a:7c:90:f7:02

FingerprintSHA1
char* (read-only)

Default Value: ""

The hex-encoded, 20-byte SHA-1 fingerprint of the certificate. This property is primarily used for keys which do not have a corresponding X.509 public certificate, such as PEM keys that only contain a private key. It is commonly used for SSH keys.

The following example illustrates the format: 30:7b:fa:38:65:83:ff:da:b4:4e:07:3f:17:b8:a4:ed:80:be:ff:84

FingerprintSHA256

InEBankList Type

Syntax

InEBankList<T> (declared in inebank.h)

Remarks

InEBankList is a generic class that is used to hold a collection of objects of type T, where T is one of the custom types supported by the InvStatement class.

Methods

GetCount This method returns the current size of the collection.

int GetCount() {}

SetCount This method sets the size of the collection. This method returns 0 if setting the size was successful; or -1 if the collection is ReadOnly. When adding additional objects to a collection call this method to specify the new size. Increasing the size of the collection preserves existing objects in the collection.

int SetCount(int count) {}

Get This method gets the item at the specified position. The index parameter specifies the index of the item in the collection. This method returns NULL if an invalid index is specified.

T* Get(int index) {}

Set This method sets the item at the specified position. The index parameter specifies the index of the item in the collection that is being set. This method returns -1 if an invalid index is specified. Note: Objects created using the new operator must be freed using the delete operator; they will not be automatically freed by the class.

T* Set(int index, T* value) {}

Config Settings (InvStatement Class)

The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

OFX Config Settings

AuthToken:   Authentication token required for this signon session only.

This credential is provided to the user out of band.

In the profile response, if AuthTokenFirst is True, then AuthToken should be sent in the very first signon.

ClientUId:   Unique ID identifying OFX Client.

In the profile response, if ClientUIdReq is True, then ClientUId should be set and included in all future requests.

CorrectAction[i]:   The action taken to a previously sent transaction corrected by the current one.

If present in the list of transactions response, this represents the action taken to a previously sent transaction that is corrected by this record. Possible values are: REPLACE or DELETE. REPLACE replaces the transaction that it corrects referenced by CorrectFITID[i];. DELETE deletes it. This is applicable to statement download components only.

CorrectFITID[i]:   The FITID of a previously sent transaction corrected by the current one.

If present in the list of transactions response, this represents the FITID of a previously sent transaction that is corrected by this record. Based on the value of CorrectAction[i];, this transaction replaces or deletes the transaction that it corrects. This is applicable to statement download components only.

CurrencyFormat:   The format to be used for returning currency values.

If this is set to a non-empty string, the class will attempt to use the value as a pattern to format all currency strings returned from the server. You may use any of the system's default number formatting strings.

DateFormat:   The format to be used for input and output dates.

This format is used for input and output dates. You may use any of the system's default date formatting strings.

When submitting the request: all your input dates should be entered in a format specified by DateFormat and the class will convert those to OFXDateFormat right before sending the request.

For example, if you set a date to '2000.01.01' (by first setting the DateFormat to 'yyyy.MM.dd'), for a EST timezone, the class will convert it to '20000101000000.000[-5:EST]' (format specified by OFXDateFormat).

When parsing the response: if DateFormat is set to a non-empty string, the class will attempt to use the value as a pattern to format all date strings as they are returned. Otherwise, the system's default value will be used for formatting.

If the DateFormat is set to the special value "OFXDATE": During input:, any values you supply to date properties are passed to the server directly with no changes; During output: all dates will be returned in the OFX format as it was provided by the server without performing any modifications.

GetResponseVar:   Parses additional information out of the response.

Any additional response information contained within the OFX response that is not available via the Response fields, may be retrieved with this GetResponseVar config.

To obtain a response value, pass the XPath to the value you wish to receive. For instance, if the OFX response contains: "<OFX><SIGNONMSGSRSV1><SONRS><STATUS><CODE>0<SEVERITY>INFO</STATUS><DTSERVER>20120104223836.575<LANGUAGE>ENG"

Then calling GetResponseVar("/OFX/SIGNONMSGSRVSV1/LANGUAGE") will return "ENG".

NewPassword:   New password for the current OFX user.

Setting NewPassword to a non-empty value will cause the class to issue a password change request during sign-on along with the regular current OFX request. After the request is sent, this value will be cleared.

The correct current password is needed as well during signon request and must be supplied through the OFXPassword. Upon successful reply from the server, the NewPassword used becomes the new password.

OFXDateFormat:   The date format as required by OFX FI server.

Most of OFX FI servers, accept the default format, where the offset (G) and timezone (Z) are specified. However, there might still be some servers that do not accept that part. In such cases, you will have to set the OFXDateFormat to "YYYYMMddHHmmss.xxx" and GMT will be assumed as the default value.

Your input dates should be entered in a format specified by DateFormat and the class will convert those to OFXDateFormat (format that OFX FI server recognizes) right before sending the request.

For example, if you set a date to '2000.01.01' (by first setting the DateFormat to 'yyyy.MM.dd'), for a EST timezone, the class will convert it to '20000101000000.000[-5:EST]' (format specified by OFXDateFormat).

OFXLog:   Log file for the OFX transaction.

This setting records the OFX communication, but without including HTTP headers, to a file.

Please note that ReadOFXDataFile will not be able to parse this file because of the OFX request content present. If only the response of the server is required, please look at the WriteOFXDataFile method instead.

ServerMessage:   Server message if a warning or other information returned.

When sending a transaction request to a FI, their server with return either a successful reply or an error. However, even when a transaction is successful, a warning or other server messages might still be returned and are to be treated as informational notes only.

UserCred1A:   Additional user credential required by server.

In the profile response, if UserCred1Q is present, then UserCred1A should be set (as the answer to question identified by UserCred1Q) and it should be included in all future requests as part of the signon.

UserCred2A:   Additional user credential required by server.

In the profile response, if UserCred2Q is present, then UserCred2A should be set (as the answer to question identified by UserCred2Q) and it should be included in all future requests as part of the signon.

HTTP Config Settings

AcceptEncoding:   Used to tell the server which types of content encodings the client supports.

When AllowHTTPCompression is True, the class adds an Accept-Encoding header to the request being sent to the server. By default, this header's value is "gzip, deflate". This configuration setting allows you to change the value of the Accept-Encoding header. Note: The class only supports gzip and deflate decompression algorithms.

AllowHTTPCompression:   This property enables HTTP compression for receiving data.

This configuration setting enables HTTP compression for receiving data. When set to True (default), the class will accept compressed data. It then will uncompress the data it has received. The class will handle data compressed by both gzip and deflate compression algorithms.

When True, the class adds an Accept-Encoding header to the outgoing request. The value for this header can be controlled by the AcceptEncoding configuration setting. The default value for this header is "gzip, deflate".

The default value is True.

AllowHTTPFallback:   Whether HTTP/2 connections are permitted to fallback to HTTP/1.1.

This configuration setting controls whether HTTP/2 connections are permitted to fall back to HTTP/1.1 when the server does not support HTTP/2. This setting is applicable only when HTTPVersion is set to "2.0".

If set to True (default), the class will automatically use HTTP/1.1 if the server does not support HTTP/2. If set to False, the class fails with an error if the server does not support HTTP/2.

The default value is True.

Append:   Whether to append data to LocalFile.

This configuration setting determines whether data will be appended when writing to LocalFile. When set to True, downloaded data will be appended to LocalFile. This may be used in conjunction with Range to resume a failed download. This is applicable only when LocalFile is set. The default value is False.

Authorization:   The Authorization string to be sent to the server.

If the Authorization property contains a nonempty string, an Authorization HTTP request header is added to the request. This header conveys Authorization information to the server.

This property is provided so that the HTTP class can be extended with other security schemes in addition to the authorization schemes already implemented by the class.

The AuthScheme property defines the authentication scheme used. In the case of HTTP Basic Authentication (default), every time User and Password are set, they are Base64 encoded, and the result is put in the Authorization property in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".

BytesTransferred:   Contains the number of bytes transferred in the response data.

This configuration setting returns the raw number of bytes from the HTTP response data, before the component processes the data, whether it is chunked or compressed. This returns the same value as the Transfer event, by BytesTransferred.

ChunkSize:   Specifies the chunk size in bytes when using chunked encoding.

This is applicable only when UseChunkedEncoding is True. This setting specifies the chunk size in bytes to be used when posting data. The default value is 16384.

CompressHTTPRequest:   Set to true to compress the body of a PUT or POST request.

If set to True, the body of a PUT or POST request will be compressed into gzip format before sending the request. The "Content-Encoding" header is also added to the outgoing request.

The default value is False.

EncodeURL:   If set to True the URL will be encoded by the class.

If set to True, the URL passed to the class will be URL encoded. The default value is False.

FollowRedirects:   Determines what happens when the server issues a redirect.

This option determines what happens when the server issues a redirect. Normally, the class returns an error if the server responds with an "Object Moved" message. If this property is set to 1 (always), the new URL for the object is retrieved automatically every time.

If this property is set to 2 (Same Scheme), the new URL is retrieved automatically only if the URL Scheme is the same; otherwise, the class fails with an error.

Note: Following the HTTP specification, unless this option is set to 1 (Always), automatic redirects will be performed only for GET or HEAD requests. Other methods potentially could change the conditions of the initial request and create security vulnerabilities.

Furthermore, if either the new URL server or port are different from the existing one, User and Password are also reset to empty, unless this property is set to 1 (Always), in which case the same credentials are used to connect to the new server.

A Redirect event is fired for every URL the product is redirected to. In the case of automatic redirections, the Redirect event is a good place to set properties related to the new connection (e.g., new authentication parameters).

The default value is 0 (Never). In this case, redirects are never followed, and the class fails with an error instead.

Following are the valid options:

  • 0 - Never
  • 1 - Always
  • 2 - Same Scheme

GetOn302Redirect:   If set to True the class will perform a GET on the new location.

The default value is False. If set to True, the class will perform a GET on the new location. Otherwise, it will use the same HTTP method again.

HTTP2HeadersWithoutIndexing:   HTTP2 headers that should not update the dynamic header table with incremental indexing.

HTTP/2 servers maintain a dynamic table of headers and values seen over the course of a connection. Typically, these headers are inserted into the table through incremental indexing (also known as HPACK, defined in RFC 7541). To tell the component not to use incremental indexing for certain headers, and thus not update the dynamic table, set this configuration option to a comma-delimited list of the header names.

HTTPVersion:   The version of HTTP used by the class.

This property specifies the HTTP version used by the class. Possible values are as follows:

  • "1.0"
  • "1.1" (default)
  • "2.0"
  • "3.0"

When using HTTP/2 ("2.0") or HTTP/3 ("3.0"), additional restrictions apply. Please see the following notes for details.

HTTP/2 Notes

When using HTTP/2, a secure Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/2 will result in an error.

If the server does not support HTTP/2, the class will automatically use HTTP/1.1 instead. This is done to provide compatibility without the need for any additional settings. To see which version was used, check NegotiatedHTTPVersion after calling a method. The AllowHTTPFallback setting controls whether this behavior is allowed (default) or disallowed.

HTTP/3 Notes

HTTP/3 is supported only in .NET and Java.

When using HTTP/3, a secure (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/3 will result in an error.

IfModifiedSince:   A date determining the maximum age of the desired document.

If this setting contains a nonempty string, an If-Modified-Since HTTP header is added to the request. The value of this header is used to make the HTTP request conditional: if the requested documented has not been modified since the time specified in the field, a copy of the document will not be returned from the server; instead, a 304 (not modified) response will be returned by the server and the component throws an exception

The format of the date value for IfModifiedSince is detailed in the HTTP specs. For example: Sat, 29 Oct 2017 19:43:31 GMT.

KeepAlive:   Determines whether the HTTP connection is closed after completion of the request.

If true, the component will not send the Connection: Close header. The absence of the Connection header indicates to the server that HTTP persistent connections should be used if supported. Note: Not all servers support persistent connections. If false, the connection will be closed immediately after the server response is received.

The default value for KeepAlive is false.

KerberosSPN:   The Service Principal Name for the Kerberos Domain Controller.

If the Service Principal Name on the Kerberos Domain Controller is not the same as the URL that you are authenticating to, the Service Principal Name should be set here.

LogLevel:   The level of detail that is logged.

This configuration setting controls the level of detail that is logged through the Log event. Possible values are as follows:

0 (None) No events are logged.
1 (Info - default) Informational events are logged.
2 (Verbose) Detailed data are logged.
3 (Debug) Debug data are logged.

The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.

The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.

The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).

MaxRedirectAttempts:   Limits the number of redirects that are followed in a request.

When FollowRedirects is set to any value other than frNever, the class will follow redirects until this maximum number of redirect attempts are made. The default value is 20.

NegotiatedHTTPVersion:   The negotiated HTTP version.

This configuration setting may be queried after the request is complete to indicate the HTTP version used. When HTTPVersion is set to "2.0" (if the server does not support "2.0"), then the class will fall back to using "1.1" automatically. This setting will indicate which version was used.

OtherHeaders:   Other headers as determined by the user (optional).

This configuration setting can be set to a string of headers to be appended to the HTTP request headers.

The headers must follow the format "header: value" as described in the HTTP specifications. Header lines should be separated by CRLF ("\r\n") .

Use this configuration setting with caution. If this configuration setting contains invalid headers, HTTP requests may fail.

This configuration setting is useful for extending the functionality of the class beyond what is provided.

ProxyAuthorization:   The authorization string to be sent to the proxy server.

This is similar to the Authorization configuration setting, but is used for proxy authorization. If this configuration setting contains a nonempty string, a Proxy-Authorization HTTP request header is added to the request. This header conveys proxy Authorization information to the server. If User and Password are specified, this value is calculated using the algorithm specified by AuthScheme.

ProxyAuthScheme:   The authorization scheme to be used for the proxy.

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyPassword:   A password if authentication is to be used for the proxy.

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyPort:   Port for the proxy server (default 80).

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyServer:   Name or IP address of a proxy server (optional).

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyUser:   A user name if authentication is to be used for the proxy.

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

SentHeaders:   The full set of headers as sent by the client.

This configuration setting returns the complete set of raw headers as sent by the client.

StatusCode:   The status code of the last response from the server.

This configuration setting contains the result code of the last response from the server.

StatusLine:   The first line of the last response from the server.

This setting contains the first line of the last response from the server. The format of the line will be [HTTP version] [Result Code] [Description].

TransferredData:   The contents of the last response from the server.

This configuration setting contains the contents of the last response from the server.

TransferredDataLimit:   The maximum number of incoming bytes to be stored by the class.

If TransferredDataLimit is set to 0 (default), no limits are imposed. Otherwise, this reflects the maximum number of incoming bytes that can be stored by the class.

TransferredHeaders:   The full set of headers as received from the server.

This configuration setting returns the complete set of raw headers as received from the server.

TransferredRequest:   The full request as sent by the client.

This configuration setting returns the full request as sent by the client. For performance reasons, the request is not normally saved. Set this configuration setting to ON before making a request to enable it. Following are examples of this request:

.NET Http http = new Http(); http.Config("TransferredRequest=on"); http.PostData = "body"; http.Post("http://someserver.com"); Console.WriteLine(http.Config("TransferredRequest")); C++ HTTP http; http.Config("TransferredRequest=on"); http.SetPostData("body", 5); http.Post("http://someserver.com"); printf("%s\r\n", http.Config("TransferredRequest"));

UseChunkedEncoding:   Enables or Disables HTTP chunked encoding for transfers.

If UseChunkedEncoding is set to True, the class will use HTTP-chunked encoding when posting, if possible. HTTP-chunked encoding allows large files to be sent in chunks instead of all at once. If set to False, the class will not use HTTP-chunked encoding. The default value is False.

Note: Some servers (such as the ASP.NET Development Server) may not support chunked encoding.

UseIDNs:   Whether to encode hostnames to internationalized domain names.

This configuration setting specifies whether hostnames containing non-ASCII characters are encoded to internationalized domain names. When set to True, if a hostname contains non-ASCII characters, it is encoded using Punycode to an IDN (internationalized domain name).

The default value is False and the hostname will always be used exactly as specified. Note: The CodePage setting must be set to a value capable of interpreting the specified host name. For instance, to specify UTF-8, set CodePage to 65001. In the C++ Edition for Windows, the *W version of the class must be used. For instance, DNSW or HTTPW.

UsePlatformHTTPClient:   Whether or not to use the platform HTTP client.

When using this configuration setting, if True, the component will use the default HTTP client for the platform (URLConnection in Java, WebRequest in .NET, or CFHTTPMessage in Mac/iOS) instead of the internal HTTP implementation. This is important for environments in which direct access to sockets is limited or not allowed (e.g., in the Google AppEngine).

Note: This setting is applicable only to Mac/iOS editions.

UseProxyAutoConfigURL:   Whether to use a Proxy auto-config file when attempting a connection.

This configuration specifies whether the class will attempt to use the Proxy auto-config URL when establishing a connection and AutoDetect is set to True.

When True (default), the class will check for the existence of a Proxy auto-config URL, and if found, will determine the appropriate proxy to use.

UserAgent:   Information about the user agent (browser).

This is the value supplied in the HTTP User-Agent header. The default setting is "IPWorks HTTP Component - www.nsoftware.com".

Override the default with the name and version of your software.

TCPClient Config Settings

ConnectionTimeout:   Sets a separate timeout value for establishing a connection.

When set, this configuration setting allows you to specify a different timeout value for establishing a connection. Otherwise, the class will use Timeout for establishing a connection and transmitting/receiving data.

FirewallAutoDetect:   Tells the class whether or not to automatically detect and use firewall system settings, if available.

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallHost:   Name or IP address of firewall (optional).

If a FirewallHost is given, requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting.

If the FirewallHost setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the FirewallHost setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallPassword:   Password to be used if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall.

If FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword settings are used to connect and authenticate to the given firewall. If the authentication fails, the class fails with an error.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallPort:   The TCP port for the FirewallHost;.

The FirewallPort is set automatically when FirewallType is set to a valid value.

Note: This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallType:   Determines the type of firewall to connect through.

Possible values are as follows:

0No firewall (default setting).
1Connect through a tunneling proxy. FirewallPort is set to 80.
2Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
3Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
10Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallUser:   A user name if authentication is to be used connecting through a firewall.

If the FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword settings are used to connect and authenticate to the Firewall. If the authentication fails, the class fails with an error.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

KeepAliveInterval:   The retry interval, in milliseconds, to be used when a TCP keep-alive packet is sent and no response is received.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity as defined by KeepAliveTime. If no acknowledgment is received from the remote host, the keep-alive packet will be sent again. This configuration setting specifies the interval at which the successive keep-alive packets are sent in milliseconds. This system default if this value is not specified here is 1 second.

Note: This value is not applicable in macOS.

KeepAliveRetryCount:   The number of keep-alive packets to be sent before the remotehost is considered disconnected.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity as defined by KeepAliveTime. If no acknowledgment is received from the remote host, the keep-alive packet will be sent again. This configuration setting specifies the number of times that the keep-alive packets will be sent before the remote host is considered disconnected. The system default if this value is not specified here is 9.

Note: This configuration setting is only available in the Unix platform. It is not supported in masOS or FreeBSD.

KeepAliveTime:   The inactivity time in milliseconds before a TCP keep-alive packet is sent.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. By default, the operating system will determine the time a connection is idle before a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) keep-alive packet is sent. This system default if this value is not specified here is 2 hours. In many cases, a shorter interval is more useful. Set this value to the desired interval in milliseconds.

Linger:   When set to True, connections are terminated gracefully.

This property controls how a connection is closed. The default is True.

In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if LingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.

In the second scenario, if LingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified LingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.

The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the class returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).

Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.

LingerTime:   Time in seconds to have the connection linger.

LingerTime is the time, in seconds, the socket connection will linger. This value is 0 by default, which means it will use the default IP timeout.

LocalHost:   The name of the local host through which connections are initiated or accepted.

The LocalHost setting contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface), setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface.

If the class is connected, the LocalHost setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

LocalPort:   The port in the local host where the class binds.

This configuration setting must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the class to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by LocalPort after the connection is established.

LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.

This configuration setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port on the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.

MaxLineLength:   The maximum amount of data to accumulate when no EOL is found.

MaxLineLength is the size of an internal buffer, which holds received data while waiting for an EOL string.

If an EOL string is found in the input stream before MaxLineLength bytes are received, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.

If no EOL is found, and MaxLineLength bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.

The minimum value for MaxLineLength is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

MaxTransferRate:   The transfer rate limit in bytes per second.

This configuration setting can be used to throttle outbound TCP traffic. Set this to the number of bytes to be sent per second. By default, this is not set and there is no limit.

ProxyExceptionsList:   A semicolon separated list of hosts and IPs to bypass when using a proxy.

This configuration setting optionally specifies a semicolon-separated list of hostnames or IP addresses to bypass when a proxy is in use. When requests are made to hosts specified in this property, the proxy will not be used. For instance:

www.google.com;www.nsoftware.com

TCPKeepAlive:   Determines whether or not the keep alive socket option is enabled.

If set to True, the socket's keep-alive option is enabled and keep-alive packets will be sent periodically to maintain the connection. Set KeepAliveTime and KeepAliveInterval to configure the timing of the keep-alive packets.

Note: This value is not applicable in Java.

TcpNoDelay:   Whether or not to delay when sending packets.

When set to True, the socket will send all data that are ready to send at once. When set to False, the socket will send smaller buffered packets of data at small intervals. This is known as the Nagle algorithm.

By default, this configuration setting is set to False.

UseIPv6:   Whether to use IPv6.

When set to 0 (default), the class will use IPv4 exclusively. When set to 1, the class will use IPv6 exclusively. To instruct the class to prefer IPv6 addresses, but use IPv4 if IPv6 is not supported on the system, this setting should be set to 2. The default value is 0. Possible values are as follows:

0 IPv4 only
1 IPv6 only
2 IPv6 with IPv4 fallback

SSL Config Settings

LogSSLPackets:   Controls whether SSL packets are logged when using the internal security API.

When SSLProvider is set to Internal, this configuration setting controls whether Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) packets should be logged. By default, this configuration setting is False, as it is useful only for debugging purposes.

When enabled, SSL packet logs are output using the SSLStatus event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.

Enabling this configuration setting has no effect if SSLProvider is set to Platform.

OpenSSLCADir:   The path to a directory containing CA certificates.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The path set by this property should point to a directory containing CA certificates in PEM format. The files each contain one CA certificate. The files are looked up by the CA subject name hash value, which must hence be available. If more than one CA certificate with the same name hash value exist, the extension must be different (e.g., 9d66eef0.0, 9d66eef0.1). OpenSSL recommends the use of the c_rehash utility to create the necessary links. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

OpenSSLCAFile:   Name of the file containing the list of CA's trusted by your application.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The file set by this property should contain a list of CA certificates in PEM format. The file can contain several CA certificates identified by the following sequences:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

... (CA certificate in base64 encoding) ...

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

Before, between, and after the certificate text is allowed, which can be used, for example, for descriptions of the certificates. Refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

OpenSSLCipherList:   A string that controls the ciphers to be used by SSL.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The format of this string is described in the OpenSSL man page ciphers(1) section "CIPHER LIST FORMAT". Please refer to it for details. The default string "DEFAULT" is determined at compile time and is normally equivalent to "ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+SSLv2:@STRENGTH".

OpenSSLPrngSeedData:   The data to seed the pseudo random number generator (PRNG).

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

By default, OpenSSL uses the device file "/dev/urandom" to seed the PRNG, and setting OpenSSLPrngSeedData is not required. If set, the string specified is used to seed the PRNG.

ReuseSSLSession:   Determines if the SSL session is reused.

If set to True, the class will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:

  • The target host name is the same.
  • The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
  • The application process that calls the function is the same.
  • The logon session is the same.
  • The instance of the class is the same.

SSLCACertFilePaths:   The paths to CA certificate files on Unix/Linux.

This configuration setting specifies the paths on disk to CA certificate files on Unix/Linux.

The value is formatted as a list of paths separated by semicolons. The class will check for the existence of each file in the order specified. When a file is found, the CA certificates within the file will be loaded and used to determine the validity of server or client certificates.

The default value is as follows:

/etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem;/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt;/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt;/etc/pki/tls/cacert.pem

SSLCACerts:   A newline separated list of CA certificates to be included when performing an SSL handshake.

When SSLProvider is set to Internal, this configuration setting specifies one or more CA certificates to be included with the SSLCert property. Some servers or clients require the entire chain, including CA certificates, to be presented when performing SSL authentication. The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
... Intermediate Cert ...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w

... Root Cert ...
d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

SSLCipherStrength:   The minimum cipher strength used for bulk encryption.

This minimum cipher strength is largely dependent on the security modules installed on the system. If the cipher strength specified is not supported, an error will be returned when connections are initiated.

Note: This configuration setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library. The actual cipher strength used for the connection is shown by the SSLStatus event.

Use this configuration setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.

When the provider is OpenSSL, SSLCipherStrength is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the OpenSSLCipherList configuration setting.

SSLClientCACerts:   A newline separated list of CA certificates to use during SSL client certificate validation.

This configuration setting is only applicable to server components (e.g., TCPServer) see SSLServerCACerts for client components (e.g., TCPClient). This setting can be used to optionally specify one or more CA certificates to be used when verifying the client certificate that is presented by the client during the SSL handshake when SSLAuthenticateClients is enabled. When verifying the client's certificate, the certificates trusted by the system will be used as part of the verification process. If the client's CA certificates are not installed to the trusted system store, they may be specified here so they are included when performing the verification process. This configuration setting should be set only if the client's CA certificates are not already trusted on the system and cannot be installed to the trusted system store.

The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
... Intermediate Cert ...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w
F0I1XhM+pKj7FjDr+XNj

d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

SSLEnabledCipherSuites:   The cipher suite to be used in an SSL negotiation.

This configuration setting enables the cipher suites to be used in SSL negotiation.

By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").

The special value "*" means that the class will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If SSLEnabledCipherSuites is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.

Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.

Example values when SSLProvider is set to Platform include the following: obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256;CALG_3DES"); Possible values when SSLProvider is set to Platform include the following:

When TLS 1.3 is negotiated (see SSLEnabledProtocols), only the following cipher suites are supported:

  • TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
  • TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
  • TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with SSLCipherStrength.

SSLEnabledProtocols:   Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.

This configuration setting is used to enable or disable the supported security protocols.

Not all supported protocols are enabled by default. The default value is 4032 for client components, and 3072 for server components. To specify a combination of enabled protocol versions set this config to the binary OR of one or more of the following values:

TLS1.312288 (Hex 3000)
TLS1.23072 (Hex C00) (Default - Client and Server)
TLS1.1768 (Hex 300) (Default - Client)
TLS1 192 (Hex C0) (Default - Client)
SSL3 48 (Hex 30)
SSL2 12 (Hex 0C)

Note that only TLS 1.2 is enabled for server components that accept incoming connections. This adheres to industry standards to ensure a secure connection. Client components enable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and TLS 1.2 by default and will negotiate the highest mutually supported version when connecting to a server, which should be TLS 1.2 in most cases.

SSLEnabledProtocols: Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 Notes:

By default when TLS 1.3 is enabled, the class will use the internal TLS implementation when the SSLProvider is set to Automatic for all editions.

In editions that are designed to run on Windows, SSLProvider can be set to Platform to use the platform implementation instead of the internal implementation. When configured in this manner, please note that the platform provider is supported only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up. The default internal provider is available on all platforms and is not restricted to any specific OS version.

If set to 1 (Platform provider), please be aware of the following notes:

  • The platform provider is available only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up.
  • SSLEnabledCipherSuites and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
  • If SSLEnabledProtocols includes both TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2, these restrictions are still applicable even if TLS 1.2 is negotiated. Enabling TLS 1.3 with the platform provider changes the implementation used for all TLS versions.

SSLEnabledProtocols: SSL2 and SSL3 Notes:

SSL 2.0 and 3.0 are not supported by the class when the SSLProvider is set to internal. To use SSL 2.0 or SSL 3.0, the platform security API must have the protocols enabled and SSLProvider needs to be set to platform.

SSLEnableRenegotiation:   Whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension is supported.

This configuration setting specifies whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension will be used in the request when using the internal security API. This configuration setting is false by default, but it can be set to true to enable the extension.

This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

SSLIncludeCertChain:   Whether the entire certificate chain is included in the SSLServerAuthentication event.

This configuration setting specifies whether the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event contains the full certificate chain. By default this value is False and only the leaf certificate will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event.

If set to True, all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.

SSLKeyLogFile:   The location of a file where per-session secrets are written for debugging purposes.

This configuration setting optionally specifies the full path to a file on disk where per-session secrets are stored for debugging purposes.

When set, the class will save the session secrets in the same format as the SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable functionality used by most major browsers and tools, such as Chrome, Firefox, and cURL. This file can then be used in tools such as Wireshark to decrypt TLS traffic for debugging purposes. When writing to this file, the class will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.

Note: This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

SSLNegotiatedCipher:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite.

This configuration setting returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipher[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite strength.

This configuration setting returns the strength of the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite.

This configuration setting returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake represented as a single string.

Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange:   Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm.

This configuration setting returns the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength:   Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm strength.

This configuration setting returns the strength of the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedVersion:   Returns the negotiated protocol version.

This configuration setting returns the protocol version negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedVersion[connId]");

SSLSecurityFlags:   Flags that control certificate verification.

The following flags are defined (specified in hexadecimal notation). They can be ORed together to exclude multiple conditions:

0x00000001Ignore time validity status of certificate.
0x00000002Ignore time validity status of CTL.
0x00000004Ignore non-nested certificate times.
0x00000010Allow unknown certificate authority.
0x00000020Ignore wrong certificate usage.
0x00000100Ignore unknown certificate revocation status.
0x00000200Ignore unknown CTL signer revocation status.
0x00000400Ignore unknown certificate authority revocation status.
0x00000800Ignore unknown root revocation status.
0x00008000Allow test root certificate.
0x00004000Trust test root certificate.
0x80000000Ignore non-matching CN (certificate CN non-matching server name).

This functionality is currently not available when the provider is OpenSSL.

SSLServerCACerts:   A newline separated list of CA certificates to use during SSL server certificate validation.

This configuration setting is only used by client components (e.g., TCPClient) see SSLClientCACerts for server components (e.g., TCPServer). This configuration setting can be used to optionally specify one or more CA certificates to be used when connecting to the server and verifying the server certificate. When verifying the server's certificate, the certificates trusted by the system will be used as part of the verification process. If the server's CA certificates are not installed to the trusted system store, they may be specified here so they are included when performing the verification process. This configuration setting should be set only if the server's CA certificates are not already trusted on the system and cannot be installed to the trusted system store.

The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw

d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

TLS12SignatureAlgorithms:   Defines the allowed TLS 1.2 signature algorithms when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

This configuration setting specifies the allowed server certificate signature algorithms when SSLProvider is set to Internal and SSLEnabledProtocols is set to allow TLS 1.2.

When specified the class will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this configuration setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported, the class fails with an error.

The format of this value is a comma-separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance: component.SSLProvider = TCPClientSSLProviders.sslpInternal; component.Config("SSLEnabledProtocols=3072"); //TLS 1.2 component.Config("TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa"); The default value for this configuration setting is sha512-ecdsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa,sha384-ecdsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha256-ecdsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha224-ecdsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha1-ecdsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa.

To not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this configuration setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.

TLS12SupportedGroups:   The supported groups for ECC.

This configuration setting specifies a comma-separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.2 for ECC.

The default value is ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1.

When using TLS 1.2 and SSLProvider is set to Internal, the values refer to the supported groups for ECC. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)

TLS13KeyShareGroups:   The groups for which to pregenerate key shares.

This configuration setting specifies a comma-separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. The groups specified here will have key share data pregenerated locally before establishing a connection. This can prevent an additional roundtrip during the handshake if the group is supported by the server.

The default value is set to balance common supported groups and the computational resources required to generate key shares. As a result, only some groups are included by default in this configuration setting.

Note: All supported groups can always be used during the handshake even if not listed here, but if a group is used that is not present in this list, it will incur an additional roundtrip and time to generate the key share for that group.

In most cases, this configuration setting does not need to be modified. This should be modified only if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
  • "ecdhe_x448"
  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1"
  • "ffdhe_2048" (default)
  • "ffdhe_3072" (default)
  • "ffdhe_4096"
  • "ffdhe_6144"
  • "ffdhe_8192"

TLS13SignatureAlgorithms:   The allowed certificate signature algorithms.

This configuration setting holds a comma-separated list of allowed signature algorithms. Possible values include the following:

  • "ed25519" (default)
  • "ed448" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha256" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha384" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha512" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha256" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha384" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha512" (default)
The default value is rsa_pss_sha256,rsa_pss_sha384,rsa_pss_sha512,rsa_pkcs1_sha256,rsa_pkcs1_sha384,rsa_pkcs1_sha512,ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256,ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384,ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512,ed25519,ed448. This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLEnabledProtocols includes TLS 1.3.
TLS13SupportedGroups:   The supported groups for (EC)DHE key exchange.

This configuration setting specifies a comma-separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. This configuration setting should be modified only if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_x448,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072,ffdhe_4096,ffdhe_6144,ffdhe_8192

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
  • "ecdhe_x448" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)
  • "ffdhe_2048" (default)
  • "ffdhe_3072" (default)
  • "ffdhe_4096" (default)
  • "ffdhe_6144" (default)
  • "ffdhe_8192" (default)

Socket Config Settings

AbsoluteTimeout:   Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts.

If AbsoluteTimeout is set to True, any method that does not complete within Timeout seconds will be aborted. By default, AbsoluteTimeout is False, and the timeout is an inactivity timeout.

Note: This option is not valid for User Datagram Protocol (UDP) ports.

FirewallData:   Used to send extra data to the firewall.

When the firewall is a tunneling proxy, use this property to send custom (additional) headers to the firewall (e.g., headers for custom authentication schemes).

InBufferSize:   The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be receiving. In some cases, increasing the value of the InBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated the InBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

OutBufferSize:   The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be sending. In some cases, increasing the value of the OutBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated the OutBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

Base Config Settings

BuildInfo:   Information about the product's build.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

CodePage:   The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.

The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).

LicenseInfo:   Information about the current license.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a class is using. It will return the following information:

  • Product: The product the license is for.
  • Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
  • License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
  • License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
  • Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.
MaskSensitiveData:   Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.

In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to true to mask sensitive data. The default is true.

This setting only works on these classes: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer.

ProcessIdleEvents:   Whether the class uses its internal event loop to process events when the main thread is idle.

If set to False, the class will not fire internal idle events. Set this to False to use the class in a background thread on Mac OS. By default, this setting is True.

SelectWaitMillis:   The length of time in milliseconds the class will wait when DoEvents is called if there are no events to process.

If there are no events to process when DoEvents is called, the class will wait for the amount of time specified here before returning. The default value is 20.

UseInternalSecurityAPI:   Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

When set to false, the class will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to true tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

On Windows, this setting is set to false by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to true by default.

To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the OpenSSL Notes section.
