Programming considerations
- To use this function, you must include the library that is specified in the prototype in your makefile.
-
Assign the socket to an SSL structure before starting the SSL session with the SSL_connect or SSL_accept function. You can assign the socket to an SSL structure anytime after the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connection is established, meaning after the connect or accept functions is completed successfully.
