SSLCTXsetsslversion(3) OpenSSL SSLCTXsetsslversion(3)

NAME
       SSLCTXsetsslversion, SSLsetsslmethod, SSLgetsslmethod -
       choose a new TLS/SSL method

SYNOPSIS
        #include 

        int SSLCTXsetsslversion(SSLCTX *ctx, SSLMETHOD *method);
        int SSLsetsslmethod(SSL *s, SSLMETHOD *method);
        SSLMETHOD *SSLgetsslmethod(SSL *ssl);

DESCRIPTION
       SSLCTXsetsslversion() sets a new default TLS/SSL mmeetthhoodd for SSL
       objects newly created from this ccttxx. SSL objects already created with
       SSLnew(3) are not affected, except when SSLclear(3) is being called.

       SSLsetsslmethod() sets a new TLS/SSL mmeetthhoodd for a particular ssssll
       object. It may be reset, when SSLclear() is called.

       SSLgetsslmethod() returns a function pointer to the TLS/SSL method
       set in ssssll.

NNOOTTEESS
       The available mmeetthhoodd choices are described in SSLCTXnew(3).

       When SSLclear(3) is called and no session is connected to an SSL
       object, the method of the SSL object is reset to the method currently
       set in the corresponding SSLCTX object.

RETURN VALUES
       The following return values can occur for SSLCTXsetsslversion() and
       SSLsetsslmethod():

       0   The new choice failed, check the error stack to find out the
           reason.

       1   The operation succeeded.
