SSL_CONF_CTX_free

SYNOPSIS

#include <openssl/ssl.h>
SSL_CONF_CTX *SSL_CONF_CTX_new(void);
void SSL_CONF_CTX_free(SSL_CONF_CTX *cctx);

The function SSL_CONF_CTX_new() allocates and initialises an SSL_CONF_CTX structure for use with the SSL_CONF functions.

The function SSL_CONF_CTX_free() frees up the context cctx.

SSL_CONF_CTX_new() returns either the newly allocated SSL_CONF_CTX structure or NULL if an error occurs.

SSL_CONF_CTX_free() does not return a value.

These functions were first added to OpenSSL 1.0.2
