WiFiNINA - WiFiSSLClient

Description

This class allows to create a client that always connects in SSL to the specified IP address and port, even if client.connect() is used instead of client.connectSSL(). This is useful If you have a library that accepts only plain Client, but you want to force it to use SSL, keeping the same method names of the non SSL client.

Syntax

WiFiNINASSLClient client;

Parameters

  • client : the named client to refer to

Return

  • None

Example

/*
This example creates a client object that connects and transfers
data using always SSL.

It is compatible with the methods normally related to plain
connections, like client.connect(host, port).
