NAME
DSA_SIG_new
,
DSA_SIG_free
—

objects
SYNOPSIS
#include
<openssl/dsa.h>
DSA_SIG *
DSA_SIG_new
(void);
void
DSA_SIG_free
(DSA_SIG *a);
DESCRIPTION
DSA_SIG_new
()
allocates and initializes a DSA_SIG structure.
DSA_SIG_free
()
frees the DSA_SIG structure and its components. The
values are erased before the memory is returned to the system. If
a is a NULL
pointer, no action
occurs.
RETURN VALUES
If the allocation fails, DSA_SIG_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.
