<h1><a name="description">DESCRIPTION</a></h1>
<p><code>SSL_load_client_CA_file()</code> reads certificates from <em>file</em> and returns
a STACK_OF(X509_NAME) with the subject names found.</p>
<p><code>SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack()</code> reads certificates from <em>file</em>,
and adds their subject name to the already existing <em>stack</em>.</p>
<p><code>SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack()</code> reads certificates from every
file in the directory <em>dir</em>, and adds their subject name to the
already existing <em>stack</em>.</p>
<p><code>SSL_add_store_cert_subjects_to_stack()</code> loads certificates from the
<em>store</em> URI, and adds their subject name to the already existing
<em>stack</em>.</p>
<p>
</p>

<h1><a name="notes">NOTES</a></h1>
<p><code>SSL_load_client_CA_file()</code> reads a file of PEM formatted certificates and
extracts the X509_NAMES of the certificates found. While the name suggests
the specific usage as support function for
<em>SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list(3)</em>,
it is not limited to CA certificates.</p>
