NAME
ERR_remove_thread_state
,
ERR_remove_state
—
free a thread's OpenSSL error
queue
SYNOPSIS
#include
<openssl/err.h>
void
ERR_remove_thread_state
(const
CRYPTO_THREADID *tid);
Deprecated:
void
ERR_remove_state
(unsigned long
pid);
DESCRIPTION
ERR_remove_thread_state
()
frees the error queue associated with thread tid. If
tid is NULL
, the current
thread will have its error queue removed.
Since error queue data structures are allocated automatically for new threads, they must be freed when threads are terminated in order to avoid memory leaks.
ERR_remove_state
()
is deprecated and has been replaced by
ERR_remove_thread_state
(). Since threads in OpenSSL
are no longer identified by unsigned long values, any argument to this
function is ignored. Calling ERR_remove_state
() is
equivalent to
ERR_remove_thread_state
(NULL).
RETURN VALUES
ERR_remove_thread_state
() and
ERR_remove_state
() return no value.
SEE ALSO
HISTORY
ERR_remove_state
() first appeared in
SSLeay 0.6.1 and has been available since OpenBSD
2.4.
It was deprecated in OpenSSL 1.0.0 and OpenBSD
4.9 when ERR_remove_thread_state
() was
introduced and thread IDs were introduced to identify threads instead of
unsigned long.
