SSL_STATE_STRING(3)

Contents


NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       SSL_state_string, SSL_state_string_long - get textual
       description of state of an SSL object

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

        #include <openssl/ssl.h>

        const char *SSL_state_string(SSL *ssl);
        const char *SSL_state_string_long(SSL *ssl);

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       SSL_state_string() returns a 6 letter string indicating
       the current state of the SSL object ssl.

       SSL_state_string_long() returns a string indicating the
       current state of the SSL object ssl.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

       During its use, an SSL objects passes several states. The
       state is internally maintained. Querying the state information
 is not very informative before or when a connection
       has been established. It however can be of significant
       interest during the handshake.

       When using non-blocking sockets, the function call performing
 the handshake may return with SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ
       or SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE condition, so that
       SSL_state_string[_long]() may be called.

       For both blocking or non-blocking sockets, the details
       state information can be used within the info_callback
       function set with the SSL_set_info_callback() call.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

       Detailed description of possible states to be included
       later.
