gnutls_init(3) gnutls gnutls_init(3) NAME gnutls_init - API function SYNOPSIS #include <gnutls/gnutls.h> int gnutls_init(gnutls_session_t * session, unsigned int flags); ARGUMENTS gnutls_session_t * session is a pointer to a gnutls_session_t type. unsigned int flags indicate if this session is to be used for server or client. DESCRIPTION This function initializes the provided session. Every session must be ini- tialized before use, and after successful initialization and use must be deinitialized by calling gnutls_deinit(). flags can be any combination of flags from gnutls_init_flags_t. Note that since version 3.1.2 this function enables some common TLS exten- sions such as session tickets and OCSP certificate status request in client side by default. To prevent that use the GNUTLS_NO_DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS flag. Note that it is never mandatory to use gnutls_deinit() after this function fails. Since gnutls 3.8.0, it is safe to unconditionally use gnutls_deinit() even after failure regardless of whether the memory was initialized prior to gnutls_init(); however, clients wanting to be portable to older versions of the library should either skip deinitialization on failure, or pre-initialize the memory passed in to gnutls_init() to all ze- roes via memset() or similar. RETURNS GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS on success, or an error code. REPORTING BUGS Report bugs to <bugs@gnutls.org>.
