libssh2_session_method_pref(3)	     libssh2	  libssh2_session_method_pref(3)

NAME
     libssh2_session_method_pref - set preferred key exchange method

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libssh2.h>

     int
     libssh2_session_method_pref(LIBSSH2_SESSION *session,
				 int method_type, const char *prefs);

DESCRIPTION
     session - Session instance as returned by libssh2_session_init_ex(3)

     method_type - One of the Method Type constants.

     prefs  - Coma delimited list of preferred methods to use with the most pre-
     ferred listed first and the least preferred listed last.  If  a  method  is
     listed which is not supported by libssh2 it will be ignored and not sent to
     the remote host during protocol negotiation.

     Set preferred methods to be negotiated. These preferences must be set prior
     to  calling libssh2_session_handshake(3) as they are used during the proto-
     col initiation phase.

RETURN VALUE
     Return 0 on success or negative on failure. It returns LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN
     when it would otherwise block. While  LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN  is  a	negative
     number, it is not really a failure per se.

ERRORS
     LIBSSH2_ERROR_INVAL - The requested method type was invalid.

     LIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC - An internal memory allocation call failed.

     LIBSSH2_ERROR_METHOD_NOT_SUPPORTED - The requested method is not supported.
