-=head1 NAME
-
-SSL_clear - reset SSL object to allow another connection
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
- #include <openssl/ssl.h>
-
- int SSL_clear(SSL *ssl);
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-Reset B<ssl> to allow another connection. All settings (method, ciphers,
-BIOs) are kept.
-
-=head1 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 B<open>, it is considered bad and will be removed
-from the session cache, as required by RFC2246. A session is considered open,
-if L<SSL_shutdown(3)|SSL_shutdown(3)> was not called for the connection
-or at least L<SSL_set_shutdown(3)|SSL_set_shutdown(3)> was used to
-set the SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN state.
-
-If a session was closed cleanly, the session object will be kept and all
-settings corresponding. This explicitly means, that e.g. the special method
-used during the session will be kept for the next handshake. So if the
-session was a TLSv1 session, a SSL client object will use a TLSv1 client
-method for the next handshake and a SSL server object will use a TLSv1
-server method, even if SSLv23_*_methods were chosen on startup. This
-will might lead to connection failures (see L<SSL_new(3)|SSL_new(3)>)
-for a description of the method's properties.
-
-=head1 WARNINGS
-
-SSL_clear() resets the SSL object to allow for another connection. The
-reset operation however keeps several settings of the last sessions
-(some of these settings were made automatically during the last
-handshake). It only makes sense for a new connection with the exact
-same peer that shares these settings, and may fail if that peer
-changes its settings between connections. Use the sequence
-L<SSL_get_session(3)|SSL_get_session(3)>;
-L<SSL_new(3)|SSL_new(3)>;
-L<SSL_set_session(3)|SSL_set_session(3)>;
-L<SSL_free(3)|SSL_free(3)>
-instead to avoid such failures
-(or simply L<SSL_free(3)|SSL_free(3)>; L<SSL_new(3)|SSL_new(3)>
-if session reuse is not desired).
