NAME

       TLS::verifyCertificate - Verify a server's certificate

SYNOPSIS

       Void verifyCertificate( TLSsession session, String hostname="" )

ARGUMENTS

       session An open TLS session

       hostname The hostname of the server connected to. This may be left blank, in which case only the validity
       of  the  certificate  will  be  checked.  It is much more secure to specify a hostname, so that it can be
       confirmed that the host connected to is the expected one.

DESCRIPTION

       Verify that the server connected to has a valid server certificate. This should be called before  sending
       or receiving confidential data on the connection.
