24 SSL_get_current_cipher() returns a pointer to an SSL_CIPHER object
25 containing the description of the actually used cipher of a connection
26 established with the ssl object.
27
28 SSL_get_cipher() and SSL_get_cipher_name() are identical macros to
29 obtain the name of the currently used cipher. SSL_get_cipher_bits() is
30 a macro to obtain the number of secret/algorithm bits used and
31 SSL_get_cipher_version() returns the protocol name. See
32 SSL_CIPHER_get_name(3) for more details.
33
35 SSL_get_current_cipher() returns the cipher actually used or NULL, when
36 no session has been established.
