12
13=head1 DESCRIPTION
14
15SSL_get_verify_result() returns the result of the verification of the
16X509 certificate presented by the peer, if any.
17
18=head1 NOTES
19
20SSL_get_verify_result() can only return one error code while the verification
21of a certificate can fail because of many reasons at the same time. Only
22the last verification error that occurred during the processing is available
23from SSL_get_verify_result().
24
25The verification result is part of the established session and is restored
26when a session is reused.
27
28=head1 BUGS
29
30If no peer certificate was presented, the returned result code is
31X509_V_OK. This is because no verification error occurred, it does however
32not indicate success. SSL_get_verify_result() is only useful in connection
33with L<SSL_get_peer_certificate(3)>.
