These sockets behave exactly the same as channels created using the built-in

<h3><a name="COMMANDS">COMMANDS</a></h3>
<p>Typically one would use the <strong>tls::socket </strong>command
which provides compatibility with the native TCL <strong>socket</strong>
command. In such cases <strong>tls::import</strong> should not be
used directly.</p>

<h3><a name="CALLBACK OPTIONS">CALLBACK OPTIONS</a></h3>
<p>
As indicated above, individual channels can be given their own callbacks
<strong>-command</strong>, <strong>-password</strong>, and
<strong>-validate_command</strong> options passed to either of
<strong>tls::socket</strong> or <strong>tls::import</strong>.
Unlike previous versions of TCL TLS, only if the callback generates an error,
will the <b>bgerror</b> command will be invoked with the error information.
</p>
<dl>
<dt><strong>-command</strong> <em>callback</em></dt>
<dd>
Invokes the specified <em>callback</em> script at several points
during the OpenSSL handshake and use. See below for the possible
arguments passed to the callback script. Values returned from the
callback are ignored.
<br>
<dl>
<dt>
<strong>error</strong> <em>channelId message</em>
</dt>
<dd>
This form of callback is invoked whenever an error occurs during the
initial connection, handshake, or I/O operations. The <em>message</em>
argument can be from the Tcl_ErrnoMsg, OpenSSL function
<code>ERR_reason_error_string()</code>, or a custom message.
</dd>
<br>
<dt>
<strong>info</strong> <em>channelId major minor message type</em>
</dt>
<dd>
This form of callback is invoked by the OpenSSL function
<code>SSL_set_info_callback()</code> during the initial connection
and handshake operations. The <em>type</em> argument is new for
TLS 1.8. The arguments are:
<br>
<ul>
<li>Possible values for <em>major</em> are:
<code>handshake, alert, connect, accept</code>.</li>
<li>Possible values for <em>minor</em> are:
<code>start, done, read, write, loop, exit</code>.</li>
<li>The <em>message</em> argument is a descriptive string which may
be generated either by <code>SSL_state_string_long()</code> or by
<code>SSL_alert_desc_string_long()</code>, depending on the context.</li>
<li>For alerts, the possible values for <em>type</em> are:
<code>warning, fatal, and unknown</code>. For others,
<code>info</code> is used.</li>
</ul>
</dd>
<dt>
<strong>message</strong> <em>channelId direction version content_type message</em>
</dt>
<dd>
This form of callback is invoked by the OpenSSL function
<code>SSL_set_msg_callback()</code> whenever a message is sent or
received during the initial connection, handshake, or I/O operations.
It is only available when OpenSSL is complied with the
<em>enable-ssl-trace</em> option. Arguments are: <em>direction</em>
is <b>Sent</b> or <b>Received</b>, <em>version</em> is the protocol
version, <em>content_type</em> is the message content type, and
<em>message</em> is more info from the <code>SSL_trace</code> API.
This callback is new for TLS 1.8.
</dd>
<br>
<dt>
<strong>session</strong> <em>channelId session_id ticket lifetime</em>
</dt>
<dd>
This form of callback is invoked by the OpenSSL function
<code>SSL_CTX_sess_set_new_cb()</code> whenever a new session id is
sent by the server during the initial connection and handshake, but
can also be received later if the <b>-post_handshake</b> option is
used. Arguments are: <em>session_id</em> is the current
session identifier, <em>ticket</em> is the session ticket info, and
<em>lifetime</em> is the the ticket lifetime in seconds.
This callback is new for TLS 1.8.
</dd>
</dl>
</dd>
<br>
</div>
<dl>
<dt><strong>-password</strong> <em>callback</em></dt>
<dd>
Invokes the specified <em>callback</em> script when OpenSSL needs to
obtain a password. See below for the possible arguments passed to
the callback script. See below for valid return values.
<br>
<dl>
<dt>
<strong>password</strong> <em>rwflag size</em>
</dt>
<dd>
Invoked when loading or storing a PEM certificate with encryption.
Where <em>rwflag</em> is 0 for reading/decryption or 1 for
writing/encryption (can prompt user to confirm) and <em>size</em> is
the max password length in bytes. The callback should return the
password as a string. Both arguments are new for TLS 1.8.
</dd>
</dl>
</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<dl>
<dt><strong>-validatecommand</strong> <em>callback</em></dt>
<dd>
Invokes the specified <em>callback</em> script during handshake in
order to validate the provided value(s). See below for the possible
arguments passed to the callback script. If not specified, OpenSSL
will accept valid certificates and extensions.
To reject the value and abort the connection, the callback should return 0.
To accept the value and continue the connection, it should return 1.
To reject the value, but continue the connection, it should return 2.
<br>
<dl>
<dt>
<strong>alpn</strong> <em>channelId protocol match</em>
</dt>
<dd>
For servers, this form of callback is invoked when the client ALPN
extension is received. If <em>match</em> is true, <em>protocol</em>
is the first <b>-alpn</b> option specified protocol common to both
the client and server. If not, the first client specified protocol is
used. It is called after the hello and ALPN callbacks.
This callback is new for TLS 1.8.
</dd>
<br>
<dt>
<strong>hello</strong> <em>channelId servername</em>
</dt>
<dd>
For servers, this form of callback is invoked during client hello
message processing. The purpose is so the server can select the
appropriate certificate to present to the client, and to make other
configuration adjustments relevant to that server name and its
configuration. It is called before the SNI and ALPN callbacks.
This callback is new for TLS 1.8.
</dd>
<br>
<dt>
<strong>sni</strong> <em>channelId servername</em>
</dt>
<dd>
For servers, this form of callback is invoked when the Server Name
Indication (SNI) extension is received. The <em>servername</em>
argument is the client provided server name in the <b>-servername</b>
option. The purpose is so when a server supports multiple names, the
right certificate can be used. It is called after the hello callback
but before the ALPN callback.
This callback is new for TLS 1.8.
</dd>
<br>
<dt>
<strong>verify</strong> <em>channelId depth cert status error</em>
</dt>
<dd>
This form of callback is invoked by OpenSSL when a new certificate
is received from the peer. It allows the client to check the
certificate verification results and choose whether to continue
or not. It is called for each certificate in the certificate chain.
<ul>
<li>The <em>depth</em> argument is the integer depth of the
certificate in the certificate chain, where 0 is the peer certificate
and higher values going up to the Certificate Authority (CA).</li>
<li>The <em>cert</em> argument is a list of key-value pairs similar
to those returned by
<a href="#tls::status"><strong>tls::status</strong></a>.</li>
<li>The <em>status</em> argument is the boolean validity of the
current certificate where 0 is invalid and 1 is valid.</li>
<li>The <em>error</em> argument is the error message, if any, generated
by <code>X509_STORE_CTX_get_error()</code>.</li>
</ul>
</dd>
<br>
</dl>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
Reference implementations of these callbacks are provided in the
distribution as <strong>tls::callback</strong>, <strong>tls::password</strong>,
and <strong>tls::validate_command</strong> respectively. Note that these are
<em>sample</em> implementations only. In a more realistic deployment
you would specify your own callback scripts on each TLS channel using the
<strong>-command</strong>, <strong>-password</strong>, and
<strong>-validate_command</strong> options.
</p>
<p>
The default behavior when the <strong>-command</strong> and <strong>-validate_command</strong>
options are not specified is for TLS to process the associated library callbacks
internally. The default behavior when the <strong>-password</strong> option is not
specified is for TLS to process the associated library callbacks by attempting
to call <strong>tls::password</strong>.
The difference between these two behaviors is a consequence of maintaining
compatibility with earlier implementations.
</p>
<p>
<em>
The use of the reference callbacks <strong>tls::callback</strong>,
<strong>tls::password</strong>, and <strong>tls::validate_command</strong>
is not recommended. They may be removed from future releases.

<p>The <strong>tls::debug</strong> variable provides some additional

Higher values produce more diagnostic output, and will also force the

certificate, even when it is invalid if the <b>tls::validate_command</b>
callback is used for the <b>-validatecommand</b> option.</p>
