SSL_get_ciphers(3)                                 OpenSSL                                SSL_get_ciphers(3)



NAME
       SSL_get_ciphers, SSL_get_cipher_list - get list of available SSL_CIPHERs

SYNOPSIS
        #include <openssl/ssl.h>

        STACK_OF(SSL_CIPHER) *SSL_get_ciphers(const SSL *ssl);
        const char *SSL_get_cipher_list(const SSL *ssl, int priority);

DESCRIPTION
       SSL_get_ciphers() returns the stack of available SSL_CIPHERs for ssl, sorted by preference. If ssl is
       NULL or no ciphers are available, NULL is returned.

       SSL_get_cipher_list() returns a pointer to the name of the SSL_CIPHER listed for ssl with priority.
       If ssl is NULL, no ciphers are available, or there are less ciphers than priority available, NULL is
       returned.

NOTES
       The details of the ciphers obtained by SSL_get_ciphers() can be obtained using the
       SSL_CIPHER_get_name(3) family of functions.

       Call SSL_get_cipher_list() with priority starting from 0 to obtain the sorted list of available
       ciphers, until NULL is returned.

RETURN VALUES
       See DESCRIPTION
