.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Several OpenSSL structures can have application specific data attached to them.
These functions are used internally by OpenSSL to manipulate application
specific data attached to a specific structure.
.PP
\&\fBSSL_SESSION_get_ex_new_index()\fR is used to register a new index for application
specific data.
.PP
\&\fBSSL_SESSION_set_ex_data()\fR is used to store application data at \fBarg\fR for \fBidx\fR
into the \fBsession\fR object.
.PP
\&\fBSSL_SESSION_get_ex_data()\fR is used to retrieve the information for \fBidx\fR from
\&\fBsession\fR.
.PP
A detailed description for the \fB*_get_ex_new_index()\fR functionality
can be found in \fBRSA_get_ex_new_index\fR\|(3).
The \fB*_get_ex_data()\fR and \fB*_set_ex_data()\fR functionality is described in
\&\fBCRYPTO_set_ex_data\fR\|(3).
.SH WARNINGS
.IX Header "WARNINGS"
The application data is only maintained for sessions held in memory. The
application data is not included when dumping the session with
\&\fBi2d_SSL_SESSION()\fR (and all functions indirectly calling the dump functions
like \fBPEM_write_SSL_SESSION()\fR and \fBPEM_write_bio_SSL_SESSION()\fR) and can
therefore not be restored.
