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 structure.
unsigned int flags
indicate if this session is to be used for server or
client.
DESCRIPTION
This function initializes the current session to null. Every session
must be initialized before use, so internal structures can be allo‐
cated. This function allocates structures which can only be free'd by
calling gnutls_deinit(). Returns GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) on success.
flags can be one of GNUTLS_CLIENT and GNUTLS_SERVER. For a DTLS
entity, the flags GNUTLS_DATAGRAM and GNUTLS_NONBLOCK are also avail‐
able. The latter flag will enable a non-blocking operation of the DTLS
timers.
The flag GNUTLS_NO_REPLAY_PROTECTION will disable any replay protection
in DTLS mode. That must only used when replay protection is achieved
using other means.
Note that since version 3.1.2 this function enables some common TLS
extensions such as session tickets and OCSP certificate status request
in client side by default. To prevent that use the GNUTLS_NO_EXTENSIONS
flag.
RETURNS
GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS on success, or an error code.
