.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBSSL_new()\fR creates a new \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR structure which is needed to hold the
data for a \s-1TLS/SSL\s0 connection. The new structure inherits the settings
of the underlying context \fBctx\fR: connection method,
options, verification settings, timeout settings. An \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR structure is
reference counted. Creating an \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR structure for the first time increments
the reference count. Freeing it (using SSL_free) decrements it. When the
reference count drops to zero, any memory or resources allocated to the \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR
structure are freed.
.PP
\&\fBSSL_up_ref()\fR increments the reference count for an
existing \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR structure.
.PP
The function \fBSSL_dup()\fR creates and returns a new \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR structure from the same
\&\fB\s-1SSL_CTX\s0\fR that was used to create \fIs\fR. It additionally duplicates a subset of
the settings in \fIs\fR into the new \fB\s-1SSL\s0\fR object.
.PP
For \fBSSL_dup()\fR to work, the connection \s-1MUST\s0 be in its initial state and
\&\s-1MUST NOT\s0 have yet started the \s-1SSL\s0 handshake.  For connections that are not in
their initial state \fBSSL_dup()\fR just increments an internal
reference count and returns the \fIsame\fR handle.  It may be possible to
use \fBSSL_clear\fR\|(3) to recycle an \s-1SSL\s0 handle that is not in its initial
state for re-use, but this is best avoided.  Instead, save and restore
the session, if desired, and construct a fresh handle for each connection.
