SSL_CTX_sessions 3 2001-04-11 0.9.9-dev OpenSSL

### NAME

SSL_CTX_sessions - access internal session cache

### LIBRARY

libcrypto, -lcrypto

### SYNOPSIS

     #include

     struct lhash_st *SSL_CTX_sessions(SSL_CTX *ctx);

### DESCRIPTION

SSL_CTX_sessions() returns a pointer to the lhash databases containing the internal session cache for ctx.

### NOTES

The sessions in the internal session cache are kept in an openssl_lhash(3) type database. It is possible to directly access this database e.g. for searching. In parallel, the sessions form a linked list which is maintained separately from the openssl_lhash(3) operations, so that the database must not be modified directly but by using the SSL_CTX_add_session(3) family of functions.
