CURLOPT_SS...IONID_CACHE(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_SS...IONID_CACHE(3)

NAME
     CURLOPT_SSL_SESSIONID_CACHE - use the SSL session-ID cache

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSL_SESSIONID_CACHE,
			      long enabled);

DESCRIPTION
     Pass  a  long  set to 0 to disable libcurl's use of SSL session-ID caching.
     Set this to 1 to enable it. By default all transfers  are	done  using  the
     cache  enabled.  While  nothing ever should get hurt by attempting to reuse
     SSL session-IDs, there seem to be or have been broken  SSL  implementations
     in  the  wild that may require you to disable this in order for you to suc-
     ceed.

DEFAULT
     1

PROTOCOLS
     This functionality affects all TLS based  protocols:  HTTPS,  FTPS,  IMAPS,
     POP3S, SMTPS etc.

     All TLS backends support this option.

EXAMPLE
     int main(void)
     {
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
	 CURLcode result;
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
	 /* switch off session-id use */
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSL_SESSIONID_CACHE, 0L);
	 result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
	 curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }
     }

AVAILABILITY
     Added in curl 7.16.0

RETURN VALUE
     curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.

     CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see
     libcurl-errors(3).
