@deftypefun {int} {gnutls_priority_set_direct} (gnutls_session_t @var{session}, const char * @var{priorities}, const char ** @var{err_pos})
@var{session}: is a @code{gnutls_session_t}  type.

@var{priorities}: is a string describing priorities

@var{err_pos}: In case of an error this will have the position in the string the error occurred

Sets the priorities to use on the ciphers, key exchange methods,
and macs.  This function avoids keeping a
priority cache and is used to directly set string priorities to a
TLS session.  For documentation check the @code{gnutls_priority_init()} .

To use a reasonable default, consider using @code{gnutls_set_default_priority()} ,
or @code{gnutls_set_default_priority_append()}  instead of this function.

@strong{Returns:} On syntax error @code{GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST}  is returned,
@code{GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS}  on success, or an error code.
