SSL_COPY_SESSION_ID(3)

NAME
SSL_copy_session_id - copy session details between SSL objects

SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
void
SSL_copy_session_id(SSL *to, const SSL *from);

DESCRIPTION
SSL_copy_session_id() copies the following data from from to to:

-   the pointer to the SSL_SESSION object, incrementing its reference count by 1

-   the pointer to the SSL_METHOD object; if that changes the method, protocol-specific data is reinitialized

-   the pointer to the CERT object, incrementing its reference count by 1

-   the session ID context

This function is used internally by SSL_dup(3) and by BIO_ssl_copy_session_id(3).

SEE ALSO

HISTORY
SSL_copy_session_id() appeared before SSLeay 0.8 and has been available since OpenBSD 2.4.

BUGS
Failures of SSL_set_session(3), SSL_set_session_id_context(3), CRYPTO_add(3), and reinitialization of protocol-specific data are silently ignored and may leave to in an invalid or inconsistent state. An improved version reporting failure is available in OpenSSL 1.1.0.
