NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       SSL_rstate_string,  SSL_rstate_string_long  -  Get textual
       description of state of an SSL object during  read  operation

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       #include <openssl/ssl.h>

       char *SSL_rstate_string(
               SSL *ssl ); char *SSL_rstate_string_long(
               SSL *ssl );

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The SSL_rstate_string() function returns a 2 letter string
       indicating the current read state of the SSL object ssl.

       The SSL_rstate_string_long()  function  returns  a  string
       indicating the current read state of the SSL object ssl.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

       When  performing a read operation, the SSL/TLS engine must
       parse the record, consisting  of  header  and  body.  When
       working       in       a       blocking       environment,
       SSL_rstate_string[_long]()    should     always     return
       ``RD''/"read done." This function is seldom needed.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

       The SSL_rstate_string() and SSL_rstate_string_long() functions
 can return the following values: The header  of  the
       record  is  being  evaluated.   The  body of the record is
       being evaluated.  The  record  has  been  completely  processed.
  The read state is unknown. This should never happen.
