DH_new, DH_free ? allocate and free DH objects |
#include <openssl/dh.h> DH* DH_new(void); void DH_free(DH *dh); |
DH_new() allocates and initializes a DH structure. DH_free() frees the DH structure and its components. The values are erased before the memory is returned to the system. |
If the allocation fails, DH_new() returns NULL and sets an error code that can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3). Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure. DH_free() returns no value. |
dh(3), err(3), DH_generate_parameters(3), DH_generate_key(3) |
DH_new() and DH_free() are available in all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL. |
