DESCRIPTION

15       Pass a pointer to a null-terminated string  as  parameter.  The  string
16       should  be  the format of your certificate. Supported formats are "PEM"

18       later)  and Secure Transport (on iOS 5 or later, or OS X 10.7 or later)
19       also support "P12" for PKCS#12-encoded files.
20
21       The application does not have to keep the string around  after  setting
22       this option.
