BIO_s_socket(3)						       BIO_s_socket(3)

NAME
       BIO_s_socket, BIO_new_socket - Socket BIO

SYNOPSIS
       #include <openssl/bio.h>

       BIO_METHOD *   BIO_s_socket(
	       void			    );			       #define
       BIO_set_fd(b,fd,c)    BIO_int_ctrl(b,BIO_C_SET_FD,c,fd)	       #define
       BIO_get_fd(b,c)	BIO_ctrl(b,BIO_C_GET_FD,0,(char *)c)

       BIO *BIO_new_socket(
	       int sock,
	       int close_flag );

DESCRIPTION
       The  BIO_s_socket()  function  returns the socket BIO method. This is a
       wrapper around the platform's socket routines.

       BIO_read()  and	BIO_write()  read  or  write  the  underlying  socket.
       BIO_puts() is supported, but BIO_gets() is not.

       If  the	close flag is set then the socket is shut down and closed when
       the BIO is freed.

       BIO_set_fd() sets the socket of BIO b to fd and the close flag to c.

       BIO_get_fd() places the socket in c if it is not NULL, it also  returns
       the socket . If c is not NULL it should be of type (int *).

       BIO_new_socket() returns a socket BIO using sock and close_flag.

NOTES
       Socket  BIOs also support any relevant functionality of file descriptor
       BIOs.

       The reason for having separate file descriptor and socket BIOs is  that
       on some platforms sockets are not file descriptors and use distinct I/O
       routines, Windows is one such platform. Any code mixing	the  two  will
       not work on all platforms.

RETURN VALUES
       BIO_s_socket() returns the socket BIO method.

       BIO_set_fd() always returns 1.

       BIO_get_fd()  returns the socket or -1 if the BIO has not been initialā€
       ized.

       BIO_new_socket() returns the newly allocated BIO or NULL	 is  an	 error
       occurred.
