SSL_get_ciphers(3)                  OpenSSL                 SSL_get_ciphers(3)



NAME
       SSL_get_ciphers, SSL_get_cipher_list - get list of available
       SSL_CIPHERs

SYNOPSIS
        #include <openssl/ssl.h>

        STACK_OF(SSL_CIPHER) *SSL_get_ciphers(const SSL *ssl);
        const char *SSL_get_cipher_list(const SSL *ssl, int priority);

DESCRIPTION
       SSL_get_ciphers() returns the stack of available SSL_CIPHERs for ssl,
       sorted by preference. If ssl is NULL or no ciphers are available, NULL
       is returned.

       SSL_get_cipher_list() returns a pointer to the name of the SSL_CIPHER
       listed for ssl with priority. If ssl is NULL, no ciphers are available,
       or there are less ciphers than priority available, NULL is returned.

NOTES
       The details of the ciphers obtained by SSL_get_ciphers() can be
       obtained using the SSL_CIPHER_get_name(3) family of functions.

       Call SSL_get_cipher_list() with priority starting from 0 to obtain the
       sorted list of available ciphers, until NULL is returned.

RETURN VALUES
       See DESCRIPTION
