ERR_load_strings(3) OpenSSL ERR_load_strings(3)NAME
ERR_load_strings, ERR_PACK, ERR_get_next_error_library -
load arbitrary error strings
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);
DESCRIPTIONERR_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,
reason). 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 VALUEERR_load_strings() returns no value. ERR_PACK() return the
error code. ERR_get_next_error_library() returns a new
library number.
SEE ALSOerr(3), ERR_load_strings(3)HISTORYERR_load_error_strings() and ERR_PACK() are available in
all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL.
ERR_get_next_error_library() was added in SSLeay 0.9.0.
