Sets the length of the authentication tag to be generated or to be given for AEAD ciphers that requires it as in input parameter. Note that not all AEAD ciphers support this method.

An EngineError is raised of the OpenSSL::PKey is unavailable.
Create a new session id.

Creates a regular expression to match IPv4 addresses
Returns the inverse of the eigenvector matrix V
Constructs proper parameters from arguments
Enables SMTP/TLS (STARTTLS) for this object if server accepts. context is a OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext object.
