Sets whether client creates TLS (aka SSL) connections. If tls is
TRUE, client will wrap its connections in a GTlsClientConnection
and perform a TLS handshake when connecting.
Note that since GSocketClient must return a GSocketConnection,
but GTlsClientConnection is not a GSocketConnection, this
actually wraps the resulting GTlsClientConnection in a
GTcpWrapperConnection when returning it. You can use
g_tcp_wrapper_connection_get_base_io_stream() on the return value
to extract the GTlsClientConnection.
If you need to modify the behavior of the TLS handshake (eg, by
setting a client-side certificate to use, or connecting to the
"accept-certificate" signal), you can connect to
client's "event" signal and wait for it to be
emitted with G_SOCKET_CLIENT_TLS_HANDSHAKING, which will give you
a chance to see the GTlsClientConnection before the handshake
starts.
