SSL_get_current_cipher(3)    OpenSSL    SSL_get_current_cipher(3)

NAME

     SSL_get_current_cipher, SSL_get_cipher, SSL_get_cipher_name,
     SSL_get_cipher_bits, SSL_get_cipher_version - get SSL_CIPHER
     of a connection

SYNOPSIS

      #include <openssl/ssl.h>

      SSL_CIPHER *SSL_get_current_cipher(const SSL *ssl);
      #define SSL_get_cipher(s) \
                     SSL_CIPHER_get_name(SSL_get_current_cipher(s))
      #define SSL_get_cipher_name(s) \
                     SSL_CIPHER_get_name(SSL_get_current_cipher(s))
      #define SSL_get_cipher_bits(s,np) \
                     SSL_CIPHER_get_bits(SSL_get_current_cipher(s),np)
      #define SSL_get_cipher_version(s) \
                     SSL_CIPHER_get_version(SSL_get_current_cipher(s))

DESCRIPTION

     SSL_get_current_cipher() returns a pointer to an SSL_CIPHER
     object containing the description of the actually used
     cipher of a connection established with the ssl object.

     SSL_get_cipher() and SSL_get_cipher_name() are identical
     macros to obtain the name of the currently used cipher.
     SSL_get_cipher_bits() is a macro to obtain the number of
     secret/algorithm bits used and SSL_get_cipher_version()
     returns the protocol name.  See SSL_CIPHER_get_name(3) for
     more details.

RETURN VALUES

     SSL_get_current_cipher() returns the cipher actually used or
     NULL, when no session has been established.
