NAME
SSL_set_session — set a TLS/SSL session to be used during TLS/SSL connect
Synopsis
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
int
SSL_set_session(SSL *ssl, SSL_SESSION *session);
DESCRIPTION
SSL_set_session() sets session to be used when the TLS/SSL
connection is to be established. SSL_set_session() is only useful
for TLS/SSL clients. When the session is set, the reference count
of session is incremented by 1. If the session is not reused, the
reference count is decremented again during SSL_connect(). Whether
the session was reused can be queried with the SSL_session_reused(3) call.
If there is already a session set inside ssl (because it was
set with SSL_set_session() before or because the same ssl was already
used for a connection), SSL_SESSION_free() will be called for that
session.
NOTES
SSL_SESSION objects keep internal link information about the
session cache list, when being inserted into one SSL_CTX object's
session cache. One SSL_SESSION object, regardless of its reference
count, must therefore only be used with one SSL_CTX object (and
the SSL objects created from this SSL_CTX object).
RETURN VALUES
The following return values can occur:
0
The operation failed; check the error stack to find out the
reason.
1
The operation succeeded.
