💖 shishi_x509ca_default_file_set(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the shishi manual, section 3 — we're in the library-functions part of the vibe and this one is literally called shishi_x509ca_default_file_set. grab a strawberry 🍓 and let's go.

✨ NAME ✨

shishi_x509ca_default_file_set — it's an API function, bestie. that's the whole name card. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <shishi.h>

void shishi_x509ca_default_file_set(Shishi * handle, const char *
x509cafile);

yes it returns void. no notes. it just does the thing. 💅

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • Shishi * handle — the Shishi library handle, the one you made with shishi_init(). your main character. 👑
  • const char * x509cafile — a string holding the new default x509 client certificate file name, or NULL if you wanna reset everything back to the default. that's it, that's the whole vibe check. 🌸

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the tea 🫖: this function sets the default X.509 CA certificate filename used in the library. what's it for? the certificate gets used during TLS connections with the KDC, to authenticate the KDC. like, you're making sure the KDC is actually the KDC and not some random in the group chat. 💀

and the best part — the string is copied into the library, so you can dispose of your variable immediately after calling this function. no lingering references, no "wait did I free that too early" panic. it's giving considerate. 🧚✨

✨ REPORTING BUGS ✨

found a bug? don't suffer in silence, tell the devs. 🐛
