Hi,
I am a newbee in the SSL programming

I need to do the following things:

1. To connect to the server using SSL

2. To verify certificate on the server using public root certificates on the client.

3. To send the information to the server

4. To get responce from the server.

I have decided to use the Mentalis library for this purpose. I wonder what should I use to do so.
I have a server address and port I need to connect, certificate files sent by server and XML data I need to send.
What methods and objects should I use? Which examples from your library I should look at?
Thanks a lot
