NAME
gnutls_session_ext_register - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/gnutls.h> int gnutls_session_ext_register(gnutls_session_t session, const char * name, int type, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t parse_type, gnutls_ext_recv_func recv_func, gnutls_ext_send_func send_func, gnutls_ext_deinit_data_func deinit_func, gnutls_ext_pack_func pack_func, gnutls_ext_unpack_func unpack_func, unsigned flags);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_session_t session the session for which this extension will be set const char * name the name of the extension to register int type the numeric id of the extension gnutls_ext_parse_type_t parse_type the parse type of the extension (see gnutls_ext_parse_type_t) gnutls_ext_recv_func recv_func a function to receive the data gnutls_ext_send_func send_func a function to send the data gnutls_ext_deinit_data_func deinit_func a function deinitialize any private data gnutls_ext_pack_func pack_func a function which serializes the extension's private data (used on session packing for resumption) gnutls_ext_unpack_func unpack_func a function which will deserialize the extension's private data unsigned flags must be zero or flags from gnutls_ext_flags_t
DESCRIPTION
This function will register a new extension type. The extension will be only usable within the registered session. If the extension type is already registered then GNUTLS_E_ALREADY_REGISTERED will be returned, unless the flag GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_OVERRIDE_INTERNAL is specified. The latter flag when specified can be used to override certain extensions introduced after 3.5.12. It is expected to be used by applications which handle custom extensions that are not currently supported in GnuTLS, but direct support for them may be added in the future. Each registered extension can store temporary data into the gnutls_session_t structure using gnutls_ext_set_data(), and they can be retrieved using gnutls_ext_get_data().
RETURNS
GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS on success, otherwise a negative error code.
