155 \&\fISSL_get_verify_result()\fR returns the result of the verification of the
156 X509 certificate presented by the peer, if any.
157 .SH "NOTES"
158 .IX Header "NOTES"
159 \&\fISSL_get_verify_result()\fR can only return one error code while the verification
160 of a certificate can fail because of many reasons at the same time. Only
161 the last verification error that occurred during the processing is available
162 from \fISSL_get_verify_result()\fR.
163 .PP
164 The verification result is part of the established session and is restored
165 when a session is reused.
166 .SH "BUGS"
167 .IX Header "BUGS"
168 If no peer certificate was presented, the returned result code is
169 X509_V_OK. This is because no verification error occurred, it does however
170 not indicate success. \fISSL_get_verify_result()\fR is only useful in connection
171 with \fISSL_get_peer_certificate\fR\|(3).
