[PHP] Curl With Certificates As Strings

2006-02-09 Thread Gustafson, Tim 
Hello!

Can Curl be configured to use SSL certificates in strings, rather than in 
files?  I am storing my user's certificates in a mySQL database, and I don't 
really want to write those certificates to a file, and then use the file, and 
then delete them when I'm done.  I would much rather just pass the certificate 
to Curl as a string instead.

For example, instead of:

curl_setopt($Curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERT, /tmp/cert.pem);

I would like to do:

$UserQuery = mysql_query(select * from Users where ID = 1000, $Database);
$UserRow = mysql_fetch_assoc($UserQuery);
curl_setopt($Curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERT, $UserRow[Certificate]);

Is that possible?  If it isn't using Curl, is there some other library I could 
use to accomplish this?  All I need to do is simple HTTPS posts and gets.

curl_setopt($Curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERT, /tmp/cert.pem);


Never used it, but possibly...
curl_setopt($Curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERT, 
/some/php/file/to/echo/cert/from/db.php);


just a thought :)
