| =head1 NAME |
| |
| DSA_new, DSA_free - allocate and free DSA objects |
| |
| =head1 SYNOPSIS |
| |
| #include <openssl/dsa.h> |
| |
| DSA* DSA_new(void); |
| |
| void DSA_free(DSA *dsa); |
| |
| =head1 DESCRIPTION |
| |
| DSA_new() allocates and initializes a B<DSA> structure. It is equivalent to |
| calling DSA_new_method(NULL). |
| |
| DSA_free() frees the B<DSA> structure and its components. The values are |
| erased before the memory is returned to the system. |
| If B<dsa> is NULL nothing is done. |
| |
| =head1 RETURN VALUES |
| |
| If the allocation fails, DSA_new() returns B<NULL> and sets an error |
| code that can be obtained by |
| L<ERR_get_error(3)>. Otherwise it returns a pointer |
| to the newly allocated structure. |
| |
| DSA_free() returns no value. |
