[strongSwan] How to avoid the parsing of strongswan.conf file and set the configuration options programmatically?
Hi,I want toget rid of strongswan.conf file (which is installed /etc
directory). Instead I wantto set the values programmatically. I have removed
the /etc/strongswan.conf ,which is read by libstrongswan during library
initialization. Furthermore Ihave written set_strongswan_conf_options()
function to set the few strongswanconfiguration options and then invoking the
Charon. The library is getting initializedand Charon is getting started up. But
there is no charon.log file created at/var/log/. Can anyone please suggest what
might be the wrong? Thank you in advance for your support andhelp. #define
IPSEC_DEBUG_LEVEL 3void set_strongswan_conf_options(char*logfile){ if
(!library_init(NULL, cli)) { library_deinit();
return FALSE; }
lib-settings-set_str(lib-settings,charon.filelog.%s,logfile);
lib-settings-set_str(lib-settings,charon.filelog.%s.time_format,%b %e
%T, logfile);
lib-settings-set_bool(lib-settings,charon.filelog.%s.append,FALSE,
logfile);
lib-settings-set_bool(lib-settings,charon.filelog.%s.flush_line,TRUE,
logfile);
lib-settings-set_int(lib-settings,charon.filelog.%s.default,IPSEC_DEBUG_LEVEL,
logfile);} StartCharon(){ bool ret = TRUE;
char*lfile=/var/log/charon.log; set_strongswan_conf_options(lfile);
system(starter --daemoncharon); usleep(50); return
ret;}Regards,Chinmaya___

Hi, set_strongswan_conf_options(lfile); system(starter --daemon charon); You can't set options in the current process, and then expect that these options get inherited to a child process spawned using system() or any exec*() function. If you want to set strongswan.conf options programatically, you'll have to do that early in the process you want to control, for example in charons main(). Some libcharon based programs already do that, for example charon-xpc under src/frontends/osx.

Thank you Martin for your valuable response. Let me go thru the charon-xpc under src/frontends/osx.
