=head1 NAME

OSSL_QUIC_client_method, OSSL_QUIC_client_thread_method,
OSSL_QUIC_server_method
- Provide SSL_METHOD objects for QUIC enabled functions

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 #include <openssl/quic.h>

 const SSL_METHOD *OSSL_QUIC_client_method(void);
 const SSL_METHOD *OSSL_QUIC_client_thread_method(void);
 const SSL_METHOD *OSSL_QUIC_server_method(void);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The OSSL_QUIC_client_method(), OSSL_QUIC_client_thread_method(), and
OSSL_QUIC_server_method() functions provide methods for the
L<SSL_CTX_new_ex(3)> function to provide QUIC protocol support.

The OSSL_QUIC_client_thread_method() uses threads to allow for a blocking
mode of operation and avoid the need to return control to the
OpenSSL library for processing time based events.
The OSSL_QUIC_client_method() does not use threads and depends on
nonblocking mode of operation and the application periodically calling SSL
functions.

The OSSL_QUIC_server_method() is currently experimental and unsupported.
It is provided for testing purposes. It does not provide a QUIC server
implementation compliant with the QUIC specification.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

These functions return pointers to the constant method objects.

=head1 SEE ALSO

L<SSL_CTX_new_ex(3)>

=head1 HISTORY

OSSL_QUIC_client_method(), OSSL_QUIC_client_thread_method(), and
OSSL_QUIC_server_method() were added in OpenSSL 3.1.
