.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Fn X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify
configures
.Fa ctx
to use the
.Fa verify
argument as the X.509 certificate chain verification function instead
of the default verification function built into the library when
.Xr X509_verify_cert 3
is called.
.Pp
The
.Fa verify
function provided by the user is only called if the
.Dv X509_V_FLAG_LEGACY_VERIFY
or
.Dv X509_V_FLAG_NO_ALT_CHAINS
flag was set on
.Fa ctx
using
.Xr X509_STORE_CTX_set_flags 3
or
.Xr X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_flags 3 .
Otherwise, it is ignored and a different algorithm is used that does
not support replacing the verification function.
.Pp
.Fn X509_STORE_set_verify
saves the function pointer
.Fa verify
in the given
.Fa store
object.
That pointer will be copied to an
.Vt X509_STORE_CTX
object when
.Fa store
is later passed as an argument to
.Xr X509_STORE_CTX_init 3 .
.Pp
.Fn X509_STORE_set_verify_func
is an alias for
.Fn X509_STORE_set_verify
implemented as a macro.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn X509_STORE_CTX_verify_fn
is supposed to return 1 to indicate that the chain is valid
or 0 if it is not or if an error occurred.
.Pp
.Fn X509_STORE_CTX_get_verify
returns a function pointer previously set with
.Fn X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify
or
.Xr X509_STORE_CTX_init 3 ,
or
.Dv NULL
if
.Fa ctx
is uninitialized.
.Pp
.Fn X509_STORE_get_verify
returns the function pointer previously set with
.Fn X509_STORE_set_verify ,
or
.Dv NULL
if that function was not called on the
.Fa store .
