This list is globally maintained for all \s-1SSL\s0 operations within this application. It cannot be set for specific \s-1SSL_CTX\s0 or \s-1SSL\s0 objects. .PP \&\fBSSL_COMP_free_compression_methods()\fR frees the internal table of compression methods that were built internally, and possibly augmented by adding \fBSSL_COMP_add_compression_method()\fR. .SH "NOTES" .IX Header "NOTES" The \s-1TLS\s0 standard (or SSLv3) allows the integration of compression methods into the communication. The \s-1TLS RFC\s0 does however not specify compression methods or their corresponding identifiers, so there is currently no compatible way to integrate compression with unknown peers. It is therefore currently not recommended to integrate compression into applications. Applications for non-public use may agree on certain compression methods. Using different compression methods with the same identifier will lead to connection failure. .PP An OpenSSL client speaking a protocol that allows compression (SSLv3, TLSv1) will unconditionally send the list of all compression methods enabled with \&\fBSSL_COMP_add_compression_method()\fR to the server during the handshake. Unlike the mechanisms to set a cipher list, there is no method available to restrict the list of compression method on a per connection basis. .PP An OpenSSL server will match the identifiers listed by a client against its own compression methods and will unconditionally activate compression when a matching identifier is found. There is no way to restrict the list of compression methods supported on a per connection basis. .PP If enabled during compilation, the OpenSSL library will have the \&\fBCOMP_zlib()\fR compression method available. .SH "WARNINGS" .IX Header "WARNINGS" Once the identities of the compression methods for the \s-1TLS\s0 protocol have been standardized, the compression \s-1API\s0 will most likely be changed. Using it in the current state is not recommended. .SH "RETURN VALUES" .IX Header "RETURN VALUES" \&\fBSSL_COMP_add_compression_method()\fR may return the following values: .IP "0" 4 The operation succeeded. .IP "1" 4 .IX Item "1" The operation failed. Check the error queue to find out the reason. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" \&\fBssl\fR\|(3)
