     NAME
          SSL_CTX_set_cert_store, SSL_CTX_get_cert_store - manipulate
          X509 certificate verification storage

     SYNOPSIS
           #include <openssl/ssl.h>

           void SSL_CTX_set_cert_store(SSL_CTX *ctx, X509_STORE *store);
           X509_STORE *SSL_CTX_get_cert_store(SSL_CTX *ctx);

     DESCRIPTION
          SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() sets/replaces the certificate
          verification storage of ctx to/with store. If another
          X509_STORE object is currently set in ctx, it will be
          X509_STORE_free()ed.

          SSL_CTX_get_cert_store() returns a pointer to the current
          certificate verification storage.

     NOTES
          In order to verify the certificates presented by the peer,
          trusted CA certificates must be accessed. These CA
          certificates are made available via lookup methods, handled
          inside the X509_STORE. From the X509_STORE the
          X509_STORE_CTX used when verifying certificates is created.

          Typically the trusted certificate store is handled
          indirectly via using SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3).
          Using the SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() and
          SSL_CTX_get_cert_store() functions it is possible to
          manipulate the X509_STORE object beyond the
          SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) call.

          Currently no detailed documentation on how to use the
          X509_STORE object is available. Not all members of the
          X509_STORE are used when the verification takes place. So
          will e.g. the verify_callback() be overridden with the
          verify_callback() set via the SSL_CTX_set_verify(3) family
          of functions.  This document must therefore be updated when
          documentation about the X509_STORE object and its handling
          becomes available.

     RETURN VALUES
          SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() does not return diagnostic output.

          SSL_CTX_get_cert_store() returns the current setting.
