DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       Several  OpenSSL  structures can have application specific
       data attached to them. These functions are used internally
       by   OpenSSL   to  manipulate  application  specific  data
       attached to a specific structure.

       The SSL_SESSION_get_ex_new_index()  function  is  used  to
       register a new index for application specific data.

       The  SSL_SESSION_set_ex_data()  function  is used to store
       application data at arg for idx into the session object.

       The SSL_SESSION_get_ex_data() function is used to retrieve
       the information for idx from session.

       A  detailed description for the *_get_ex_new_index() functionality
 can  be  found  in  RSA_get_ex_new_index().  The
       *_get_ex_data()   and   *_set_ex_data()  functionality  is
       described in CRYPTO_set_ex_data().

RESTRICTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       The application data is only maintained for sessions  held
       in  memory.   The  application  data  is not included when
       dumping the session with the  i2d_SSL_SESSION()  function,
       as well as all functions indirectly calling the dump functions,
   such   as   the    PEM_write_SSL_SESSION()    and
       PEM_write_bio_SSL_SESSION()functions.    It   cannot    be
       restored.
