ERR_load_crypto_strings(3)					      OpenSSL						ERR_load_crypto_strings(3)

NAME

       ERR_load_crypto_strings, SSL_load_error_strings, ERR_free_strings - load and free error strings

LIBRARY

       libcrypto, -lcrypto

SYNOPSIS

	#include <openssl/err.h>

	void ERR_load_crypto_strings(void);
	void ERR_free_strings(void);

	#include <openssl/ssl.h>

	void SSL_load_error_strings(void);

DESCRIPTION

       ERR_load_crypto_strings() registers the error strings for all libcrypto functions. SSL_load_error_strings() does the same, but also
       registers the libssl error strings.

       One of these functions should be called before generating textual error messages. However, this is not required when memory usage is an
       issue.

       ERR_free_strings() frees all previously loaded error strings.

RETURN VALUES

       ERR_load_crypto_strings(), SSL_load_error_strings() and ERR_free_strings() return no values.

SEE ALSO

HISTORY

       ERR_load_error_strings(), SSL_load_error_strings() and ERR_free_strings() are available in all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL.

NAME

       ERR_print_errors, ERR_print_errors_fp - print error messages

LIBRARY

       libcrypto, -lcrypto

SYNOPSIS

	#include <openssl/err.h>

	void ERR_print_errors(BIO *bp);
	void ERR_print_errors_fp(FILE *fp);

DESCRIPTION

       ERR_print_errors() is a convenience function that prints the error strings for all errors that OpenSSL has recorded to bp, thus emptying
       the error queue.

       ERR_print_errors_fp() is the same, except that the output goes to a FILE.

       The error strings will have the following format:

	[pid]:error:[error code]:[library name]:[function name]:[reason string]:[file name]:[line]:[optional text message]

       error code is an 8 digit hexadecimal number. library name, function name and reason string are ASCII text, as is optional text message if
       one was set for the respective error code.

       If there is no text string registered for the given error code, the error string will contain the numeric code.

RETURN VALUES

       ERR_print_errors() and ERR_print_errors_fp() return no values.
