=head1 NAME
SSL_new_stream, SSL_STREAM_FLAG_UNI - create a new locally-initiated QUIC stream
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
#define SSL_STREAM_FLAG_UNI (1U << 0)
SSL *SSL_new_stream(SSL *ssl, uint64_t flags);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The SSL_new_stream() function, when passed a QUIC connection SSL object, creates
a new locally-initiated bidirectional or unidirectional QUIC stream and returns
the newly created QUIC stream SSL object.
If the B<SSL_STREAM_FLAG_UNI> flag is passed, a unidirectional stream is
created; else a bidirectional stream is created.
To retrieve the stream ID of the newly created stream, use
L<SSL_get_stream_id(3)>.
It is the caller's responsibility to free the QUIC stream SSL object using
L<SSL_free(3)>. The lifetime of the QUIC connection SSL object must exceed that
of the QUIC stream SSL object; in other words, the QUIC stream SSL object must
be freed first.
Once a stream has been created using SSL_new_stream(), it may be used in the
normal way using L<SSL_read(3)> and L<SSL_write(3)>.
This function can only be used to create stream objects for locally-initiated
streams. To accept incoming streams initiated by a peer, use
L<SSL_accept_stream(3)>.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
SSL_new_stream() returns a new stream object, or NULL on error.
This function fails if called on a QUIC stream SSL object or on a non-QUIC SSL
object.
=head1 SEE ALSO
L<SSL_accept_stream(3)>, L<SSL_free(3)>
=head1 HISTORY
SSL_new_stream() was added in OpenSSL 3.2.
