X509Certificate
===============

**Inherits:** :ref:`Resource<class_Resource>` **<** :ref:`Reference<class_Reference>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

An X509 certificate (e.g. for SSL).

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

The X509Certificate class represents an X509 certificate. Certificates can be loaded and saved like any other :ref:`Resource<class_Resource>`.

They can be used as the server certificate in :ref:`StreamPeerSSL.accept_stream<class_StreamPeerSSL_method_accept_stream>` (along with the proper :ref:`CryptoKey<class_CryptoKey>`), and to specify the only certificate that should be accepted when connecting to an SSL server via :ref:`StreamPeerSSL.connect_to_stream<class_StreamPeerSSL_method_connect_to_stream>`.
