SciSslError protocols
This is an error object subclassed for SciError. When a call to the underlying OpenSSL API fails, an instance of SciSslError is returned which can then be inspected to figure out the cause of the failure. Every attempt is made to provide helpful error information, if possible.
Instance methods
alertCode
Answers the SSL/TLS alert code if applicable and available. For details, see the IETF website-RFC Pages
Search for RFC 2246 and see Section 7.2, The TLS Protocol.
 
alertString
Answers the SSL/TLS alert description if applicable and available. For details, see the IETF website-RFC Pages
Search for RFC 2246 and see Section 7.2, The TLS Protocol.
 
errorHint
Answers a description of the error whenever possible.
 
isFatal
Determines whether the error is fatal. SSL/TLS classifies alerts as either warnings or fatal. It is possible to continue working with the connection in case of a warning, but never possible to do so when an alert is fatal. However, since most SSL-enables applications terminate a connection upon receiving any alert, fatal or not, this method always answers true.
 
isSslError
Always answers true for an instance of SciSslError. This method is used to determine whether a call to the OpenSSL API has succeeded or failed
