.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The \fBBIO_METHOD\fR type is a structure used for the implementation of new BIO
types. It provides a set of functions used by OpenSSL for the implementation
of the various BIO capabilities. See the \fBbio\fR\|(7) page for more information.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_meth_new()\fR creates a new \fBBIO_METHOD\fR structure that contains a type
identifier \fItype\fR and a string that represents its \fBname\fR.
\&\fBtype\fR can be set to either \fBBIO_TYPE_NONE\fR or via \fBBIO_get_new_index()\fR if
a unique type is required for searching (See \fBBIO_find_type\fR\|(3))
.PP
Note that \fBBIO_get_new_index()\fR can only be used 127 times before it returns an
error.
.PP
The set of
standard OpenSSL provided BIO types is provided in \fI<openssl/bio.h>\fR.
Some examples include \fBBIO_TYPE_BUFFER\fR and \fBBIO_TYPE_CIPHER\fR. Filter BIOs
should have a type which have the "filter" bit set (\fBBIO_TYPE_FILTER\fR).
Source/sink BIOs should have the "source/sink" bit set (\fBBIO_TYPE_SOURCE_SINK\fR).
File descriptor based BIOs (e.g. socket, fd, connect, accept etc) should
additionally have the "descriptor" bit set (\fBBIO_TYPE_DESCRIPTOR\fR). See the
\&\fBBIO_find_type\fR\|(3) page for more information.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_meth_free()\fR destroys a \fBBIO_METHOD\fR structure and frees up any memory
associated with it. If the argument is NULL, nothing is done.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_meth_get_write_ex()\fR and \fBBIO_meth_set_write_ex()\fR get and set the function
used for writing arbitrary length data to the BIO respectively. This function
will be called in response to the application calling \fBBIO_write_ex()\fR or
\&\fBBIO_write()\fR. The parameters for the function have the same meaning as for
\&\fBBIO_write_ex()\fR. Older code may call \fBBIO_meth_get_write()\fR and
\&\fBBIO_meth_set_write()\fR instead. Applications should not call both
\&\fBBIO_meth_set_write_ex()\fR and \fBBIO_meth_set_write()\fR or call \fBBIO_meth_get_write()\fR
when the function was set with \fBBIO_meth_set_write_ex()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_meth_get_read_ex()\fR and \fBBIO_meth_set_read_ex()\fR get and set the function used
for reading arbitrary length data from the BIO respectively. This function will
be called in response to the application calling \fBBIO_read_ex()\fR or \fBBIO_read()\fR.
The parameters for the function have the same meaning as for \fBBIO_read_ex()\fR.
Older code may call \fBBIO_meth_get_read()\fR and \fBBIO_meth_set_read()\fR instead.
Applications should not call both \fBBIO_meth_set_read_ex()\fR and \fBBIO_meth_set_read()\fR
or call \fBBIO_meth_get_read()\fR when the function was set with
\&\fBBIO_meth_set_read_ex()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_meth_get_puts()\fR and \fBBIO_meth_set_puts()\fR get and set the function used for
writing a NULL terminated string to the BIO respectively. This function will be
called in response to the application calling \fBBIO_puts()\fR. The parameters for
the function have the same meaning as for \fBBIO_puts()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_meth_get_gets()\fR and \fBBIO_meth_set_gets()\fR get and set the function typically
used for reading a line of data from the BIO respectively (see the \fBBIO_gets\fR\|(3)
page for more information). This function will be called in response to the
application calling \fBBIO_gets()\fR. The parameters for the function have the same
meaning as for \fBBIO_gets()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_meth_get_ctrl()\fR and \fBBIO_meth_set_ctrl()\fR get and set the function used for
processing ctrl messages in the BIO respectively. See the \fBBIO_ctrl\fR\|(3) page for
more information. This function will be called in response to the application
calling \fBBIO_ctrl()\fR. The parameters for the function have the same meaning as for
\&\fBBIO_ctrl()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_meth_get_create()\fR and \fBBIO_meth_set_create()\fR get and set the function used
for creating a new instance of the BIO respectively. This function will be
called in response to the application calling \fBBIO_new()\fR and passing
in a pointer to the current BIO_METHOD. The \fBBIO_new()\fR function will allocate the
memory for the new BIO, and a pointer to this newly allocated structure will
be passed as a parameter to the function. If a create function is set,
\&\fBBIO_new()\fR will not mark the BIO as initialised on allocation.
\&\fBBIO_set_init\fR\|(3) must then be called either by the create function, or later,
by a BIO ctrl function, once BIO initialisation is complete.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_meth_get_destroy()\fR and \fBBIO_meth_set_destroy()\fR get and set the function used
for destroying an instance of a BIO respectively. This function will be
called in response to the application calling \fBBIO_free()\fR. A pointer to the BIO
to be destroyed is passed as a parameter. The destroy function should be used
for BIO specific clean up. The memory for the BIO itself should not be freed by
this function.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_meth_get_callback_ctrl()\fR and \fBBIO_meth_set_callback_ctrl()\fR get and set the
function used for processing callback ctrl messages in the BIO respectively. See
the \fBBIO_callback_ctrl\fR\|(3) page for more information. This function will be called
in response to the application calling \fBBIO_callback_ctrl()\fR. The parameters for
the function have the same meaning as for \fBBIO_callback_ctrl()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_meth_get_sendmmsg()\fR, \fBBIO_meth_set_sendmmsg()\fR, \fBBIO_meth_get_recvmmsg()\fR and
\&\fBBIO_meth_set_recvmmsg()\fR get and set the functions used for handling
\&\fBBIO_sendmmsg()\fR and \fBBIO_recvmmsg()\fR calls respectively. See \fBBIO_sendmmsg\fR\|(3) for
more information.
