Description

Instances of the system class ssl-abstract-context represent information to be used when establishing SSL connections with either socket-stream or async-io-state objects. They are created by create-ssl-client-context and create-ssl-server-context, and used repeatedly by functions that attach SSL to a TCP connection, mainly open-tcp-stream or create-async-io-state-and-connected-tcp-socket for the client side, and make-instance with socket-stream or accept-tcp-connections-creating-async-io-states for the server side.

See create-ssl-server-context for a full discussion.
