SSL_clear - reset SSL object to allow another connection
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
int SSL_clear(SSL *ssl);
DESCRIPTION
Reset ssl to allow another connection. All settings
(method, ciphers, BIOs) are kept.
NOTES
SSL_clear is used to prepare an SSL object for a new
connection. While all settings are kept, a side effect is
the handling of the current SSL session. If a session is
still open, it is considered bad and will be removed from
the session cache, as required by RFC2246. A session is
considered open, if SSL_shutdown(3) was not called for the
connection or at least SSL_set_shutdown(3) was used to set
the SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN state.
RETURN VALUES
The following return values can occur:
0 The SSL_clear() operation could not be performed.

1 The SSL_clear() operation was successful.
SSL_new(3), SSL_free(3), SSL_shutdown(3),
SSL_set_shutdown(3), SSL_CTX_set_options(3), ssl(3)
