15 SSL_set_session() sets session to be used when the TLS/SSL connection
16 is to be established. SSL_set_session() is only useful for TLS/SSL
17 clients. When the session is set, the reference count of session is
18 incremented by 1. If the session is not reused, the reference count is
19 decremented again during SSL_connect(). Whether the session was reused
20 can be queried with the SSL_session_reused(3) call.
21
22 If there is already a session set inside ssl (because it was set with
23 SSL_set_session() before or because the same ssl was already used for a
24 connection), SSL_SESSION_free() will be called for that session.
25
27 SSL_SESSION objects keep internal link information about the session
28 cache list, when being inserted into one SSL_CTX object's session
29 cache. One SSL_SESSION object, regardless of its reference count, must
30 therefore only be used with one SSL_CTX object (and the SSL objects
31 created from this SSL_CTX object).

35
36 0 The operation failed; check the error stack to find out the reason.
37
38 1 The operation succeeded.
