ssl_session_get_ex_new_index(3)
NAME
SSL_SESSION_get_ex_new_index, SSL_SESSION_set_ex_data,
SSL_SESSION_get_ex_data - internal application specific data functions
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h> int SSL_SESSION_get_ex_new_index(long argl, void *argp, CRYPTO_EX_new *new_func, CRYPTO_EX_dup *dup_func, CRYPTO_EX_free *free_func); int SSL_SESSION_set_ex_data(SSL_SESSION *session, int idx, void *arg); void *SSL_SESSION_get_ex_data(const SSL_SESSION *session, int idx); typedef int new_func(void *parent, void *ptr, CRYPTO_EX_DATA *ad, int idx, long argl, void *argp); typedef void free_func(void *parent, void *ptr, CRYPTO_EX_DATA *ad, int idx, long argl, void *argp); typedef int dup_func(CRYPTO_EX_DATA *to, CRYPTO_EX_DATA *from, void *from_d, int idx, long argl, void *argp);
DESCRIPTION
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.
SSL_SESSION_get_ex_new_index() is used to register a new index for
application specific data.
SSL_SESSION_set_ex_data() is used to store application data at arg for
idx into the session object.
SSL_SESSION_get_ex_data() is used to retrieve the information for idx
from session.
A detailed description for the *__ggeett__eexx__nneeww__iinnddeexx(()) functionality can be found in RSA_get_ex_new_index(3). The *__ggeett__eexx__ddaattaa(()) and *__sseett__eexx__ddaattaa(()) functionality is described in CRYPTO_set_ex_data(3).
WARNINGS
The application data is only maintained for sessions held in memory.
The application data is not included when dumping the session with
i2d_SSL_SESSION() (and all functions indirectly calling the dump
functions like PEM_write_SSL_SESSION() and PEM_write_bio_SSL_SESSION())
and can therefore not be restored.
