SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version(3)
NAME
  SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version, SSL_set_ssl_method, SSL_get_ssl_method - Choose a
  new TLS/SSL method

SYNOPSIS
  #include <openssl/ssl.h>

  int SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version(
	  SSL_CTX *ctx, SSL_METHOD *method );

  int SSL_set_ssl_method(
	  SSL *s, SSL_METHOD *method); SSL_METHOD *SSL_get_ssl_method(SSL
  *ssl) );

DESCRIPTION
  The SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version() function sets a new default TLS/SSL method
  for SSL objects newly created from this ctx. SSL objects already created
  with the SSL_new() function are not affected, except when the SSL_clear()
  function is called.

  The SSL_set_ssl_method() function sets a new TLS/SSL method for a
  particular ssl object. It may be reset, when SSL_clear() is called.

  The SSL_get_ssl_method() function returns a function pointer to the TLS/SSL
  method set in ssl.

NOTES
  The available method choices are described in SSL_CTX_new(3).

  When SSL_clear() is called and no session is connected to an SSL object,
  the method of the SSL object is reset to the method currently set in the
  corresponding SSL_CTX object.

RETURN VALUES
  The following return values can occur for the SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version() and
  SSL_set_ssl_method() functions:

  0	  The new choice failed, check the error stack to find out the
	  reason.

  1	  The operation succeeded.
