SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version(3) OpenSSL SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version(3)NAME
SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version, SSL_set_ssl_method,
SSL_get_ssl_method - choose a new TLS/SSL method
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
int SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version(SSL_CTX *ctx, SSL_METHOD *method);
int SSL_set_ssl_method(SSL *s, SSL_METHOD *method);
SSL_METHOD *SSL_get_ssl_method(SSL *ssl);
DESCRIPTIONSSL_CTX_set_ssl_version() sets a new default TLS/SSL
method for SSL objects newly created from this ctx. SSL
objects already created with SSL_new(3) are not affected,
except when SSL_clear(3) is being called.
SSL_set_ssl_method() sets a new TLS/SSL method for a
particular ssl object. It may be reset, when SSL_clear()
is called.
SSL_get_ssl_method() returns a function pointer to the
TLS/SSL method set in ssl.
NOTES
The available method choices are described in
SSL_CTX_new(3).
When SSL_clear(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 SSL_CTX
object.
RETURN VALUES
The following return values can occur for
SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version() and SSL_set_ssl_method():
0 The new choice failed, check the error stack to find
out the reason.
1 The operation succeeded.
