SSL_SESSION_get_time(3)     OpenSSL     SSL_SESSION_get_time(3)





NAME
       SSL_SESSION_get_time, SSL_SESSION_set_time, SSL_SES-
       SION_get_timeout, SSL_SESSION_get_timeout - retrieve and
       manipulate session time and timeout settings

SYNOPSIS
        #include <openssl/ssl.h>

        long SSL_SESSION_get_time(SSL_SESSION *s);
        long SSL_SESSION_set_time(SSL_SESSION *s, long tm);
        long SSL_SESSION_get_timeout(SSL_SESSION *s);
        long SSL_SESSION_set_timeout(SSL_SESSION *s, long tm);

        long SSL_get_time(SSL_SESSION *s);
        long SSL_set_time(SSL_SESSION *s, long tm);
        long SSL_get_timeout(SSL_SESSION *s);
        long SSL_set_timeout(SSL_SESSION *s, long tm);

DESCRIPTION
       SSL_SESSION_get_time() returns the time at which the
       session s was established. The time is given in seconds
       since the Epoch and therefore compatible to the time
       delivered by the time() call.

       SSL_SESSION_set_time() replaces the creation time of the
       session s with the chosen value tm.

       SSL_SESSION_get_timeout() returns the timeout value set
       for session s in seconds.

       SSL_SESSION_set_timeout() sets the timeout value for
       session s in seconds to tm.

       The SSL_get_time(), SSL_set_time(), SSL_get_timeout(),
       and SSL_set_timeout() functions are synonyms for the
       SSL_SESSION_*() counterparts.

NOTES
       Sessions are expired by examining the creation time and
       the timeout value.  Both are set at creation time of the
       session to the actual time and the default timeout value
       at creation, respectively, as set by SSL_CTX_set_time-
       out(3).  Using these functions it is possible to extend
       or shorten the lifetime of the session.

RETURN VALUES
       SSL_SESSION_get_time() and SSL_SESSION_get_timeout()
       return the currently valid values.

       SSL_SESSION_set_time() and SSL_SESSION_set_timeout()
       return 1 on success.

       If any of the function is passed the NULL pointer for
       the session s, 0 is returned.
