OSSL_QUIC_client_method

NAME

OSSL_QUIC_client_method, OSSL_QUIC_client_thread_method - Provide SSL_METHOD objects for QUIC enabled functions

SYNOPSIS

#include <openssl/quic.h>

const SSL_METHOD *OSSL_QUIC_client_method(void);
const SSL_METHOD *OSSL_QUIC_client_thread_method(void);

DESCRIPTION

The OSSL_QUIC_client_method(), OSSL_QUIC_client_thread_method(), and OSSL_QUIC_server_method() functions provide methods for the SSL_CTX_new_ex(3) function to provide QUIC protocol support.

The OSSL_QUIC_client_thread_method() uses threads to allow for a blocking mode of operation and avoid the need to return control to the OpenSSL library for processing time based events. The OSSL_QUIC_client_method() does not use threads and depends on nonblocking mode of operation and the application periodically calling SSL functions.

RETURN VALUES

These functions return pointers to the constant method objects.

HISTORY

OSSL_QUIC_client_method() and OSSL_QUIC_client_thread_method() were added in OpenSSL 3.2.
