ERR_load_strings(3)          OpenSSL          ERR_load_strings(3)



NAME

       ERR_load_strings, ERR_PACK, ERR_get_next_error_library -
       load arbitrary error strings


LIBRARY

       libcrypto, -lcrypto


SYNOPSIS

        #include <openssl/err.h>

        void ERR_load_strings(int lib, ERR_STRING_DATA str[]);

        int ERR_get_next_error_library(void);

        unsigned long ERR_PACK(int lib, int func, int reason);



DESCRIPTION

       ERR_load_strings() registers error strings for library
       number lib.

       str is an array of error string data:

        typedef struct ERR_string_data_st
        {
               unsigned long error;
               char *string;
        } ERR_STRING_DATA;

       The error code is generated from the library number and a
       function and reason code: error = ERR_PACK(lib, func, rea-
       son).  ERR_PACK() is a macro.

       The last entry in the array is {0,0}.

       ERR_get_next_error_library() can be used to assign library
       numbers to user libraries at runtime.


RETURN VALUE

       ERR_load_strings() returns no value. ERR_PACK() return the
       error code.  ERR_get_next_error_library() returns a new
       library number.
