Global Functions

LIBSSH_API int
ssh_threads_set_callbacks(struct ssh_threads_callbacks_struct* cb)

Set the thread callbacks structure.

This is necessary if your program is using libssh in a multithreaded fashion. This function must be called first, outside of any threading context (in your main() function for instance), before you call ssh_init().

Bug libgcrypt 1.6 and bigger backend does not support custom callback. Using anything else than pthreads here will fail.

Parameters:

cb	A pointer to a ssh_threads_callbacks_struct structure, which contains the different callbacks to be set.

Returns:

Always returns SSH_OK.

ssh_threads_callbacks_struct

SSH_THREADS_PTHREAD

LIBSSH_API struct ssh_threads_callbacks_struct*
ssh_threads_get_noop(void)

Get the noop threads callbacks structure.

This can be used with ssh_threads_set_callbacks. These callbacks do nothing and are being used by default.

Returns:

Always returns a valid pointer to the noop callbacks structure.
