SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       ssize_t gnutls_record_set_max_size(gnutls_session_t session, size_t size);

ARGUMENTS

                   is a gnutls_session_t type.

       size_t size is the new size

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  sets the maximum record packet size in this connection.  This property can
       only be set to clients.  The server may choose not to accept the requested size.

       Acceptable values are 512(=2^9), 1024(=2^10), 2048(=2^11) and 4096(=2^12).  The  requested
       record  size does get in effect immediately only while sending data. The receive part will
       take effect after a successful handshake.

       This function uses a TLS extension called 'max record size'.  Not all TLS  implementations
       use or even understand this extension.

RETURNS

       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative error code is returned.
