This index is globally the same for all -X509_STORE_CTX objects and can be retrieved using -SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx(). The index value is set when -SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() is first called either by the application -program directly or indirectly during other SSL setup functions or during -the handshake. - -The value depends on other index values defined for X509_STORE_CTX objects -before the SSL index is created. - -=head1 RETURN VALUES - -=over 4 - -=item E<gt>=0 - -The index value to access the pointer. - -=item E<lt>0 - -An error occurred, check the error stack for a detailed error message. - -=back - -=head1 EXAMPLES - -The index returned from SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() allows to -access the SSL object for the connection to be accessed during the -verify_callback() when checking the peers certificate.
