.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
This function configures at runtime which SSL backend to use with
|
|
libcurl. This function can only be used to select an SSL backend once, and it
|
|
must be called \fBbefore\fP \fIcurl_global_init(3)\fP.
|
|
|
|
The backend can be identified by the \fIid\fP
|
|
(e.g. \fBCURLSSLBACKEND_OPENSSL\fP). The backend can also be specified via the
|
|
\fIname\fP parameter for a case insensitive match (passing -1 as \fIid\fP). If
|
|
both \fIid\fP and \fIname\fP are specified, the \fIname\fP will be ignored.
|
|
|
|
If neither \fIid\fP nor \fPname\fP are specified, the function will fail with
|
|
CURLSSLSET_UNKNOWN_BACKEND and set the \fIavail\fP pointer to the
|
|
NULL-terminated list of available backends. The available backends are those
|
|
that this particular build of libcurl supports.
|
|
|
|
Since libcurl 7.60.0, the \fIavail\fP pointer will always be set to the list
|
|
of alternatives if non-NULL.
|
|
|
|
Upon success, the function returns CURLSSLSET_OK.
|
|
|
|
If the specified SSL backend is not available, the function returns
|
|
CURLSSLSET_UNKNOWN_BACKEND and sets the \fIavail\fP pointer to a
|
|
NULL-terminated list of available SSL backends. In this case, you may call the
|
|
function again to try to select a different backend.
|
|
|
|
The SSL backend can be set only once. If it has already been set, a subsequent
|
|
attempt to change it will result in a \fBCURLSSLSET_TOO_LATE\fP.
|
|
|
|
This function is thread-safe since libcurl 7.84.0 if
|
|
\fIcurl_version_info(3)\fP has the CURL_VERSION_THREADSAFE feature bit set
|
|
(most platforms).
|
|
|
|
If this is not thread-safe, you must not call this function when any other
|
|
thread in the program (i.e. a thread sharing the same memory) is running.
|
|
This does not just mean no other thread that is using libcurl.
|
|
.SH EXAMPLE
|
|
.nf
|
|
/* choose a specific backend */
|
|
curl_global_sslset(CURLSSLBACKEND_WOLFSSL, NULL, NULL);
|
|
|
|
/* list the available ones */
|
|
const curl_ssl_backend **list;
|
|
curl_global_sslset((curl_sslbackend)-1, NULL, &list);
|
|
|
|
for(i = 0; list[i]; i++)
|
|
printf("SSL backend #%d: '%s' (ID: %d)\\n",
|
|
i, list[i]->name, list[i]->id);
|
|
.fi
|
|
.SH AVAILABILITY
|
|
This function was added in libcurl 7.56.0. Before this version, there was no
|
|
support for choosing SSL backends at runtime.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
If this function returns CURLSSLSET_OK, the backend was successfully selected.
|
|
|
|
If the chosen backend is unknown (or support for the chosen backend has not
|
|
been compiled into libcurl), the function returns
|
|
\fICURLSSLSET_UNKNOWN_BACKEND\fP.
|
|
|
|
If the backend had been configured previously, or if \fIcurl_global_init(3)\fP
|
|
has already been called, the function returns \fICURLSSLSET_TOO_LATE\fP.
|
|
|
|
If this libcurl was built completely without SSL support, with no backends at
|
|
all, this function returns \fICURLSSLSET_NO_BACKENDS\fP.
