CONF_modules_load_file(3) OpenSSL CONF_modules_load_file(3)NAME
CONF_modules_load_file, CONF_modules_load - OpenSSL configuration functions
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/conf.h>
int CONF_modules_load_file(const char *filename, const char *appname,
unsigned long flags);
int CONF_modules_load(const CONF *cnf, const char *appname,
unsigned long flags);
DESCRIPTION
The function CONF_modules_load_file() configures OpenSSL using file
filename and application name appname. If filename is NULL the standard
OpenSSL configuration file is used. If appname is NULL the standard
OpenSSL application name openssl_conf is used. The behaviour can be
cutomized using flags.
CONF_modules_load() is idential to CONF_modules_load_file() except it
read configuration information from cnf.
NOTES
The following flags are currently recognized:
CONF_MFLAGS_IGNORE_ERRORS if set errors returned by individual
configuration modules are ignored. If not set the first module error is
considered fatal and no further modules are loads.
Normally any modules errors will add error information to the error
queue. If CONF_MFLAGS_SILENT is set no error information is added.
If CONF_MFLAGS_NO_DSO is set configuration module loading from DSOs is
disabled.
CONF_MFLAGS_IGNORE_MISSING_FILE if set will make
CONF_load_modules_file() ignore missing configuration files. Normally a
missing configuration file return an error.
RETURN VALUE
These functions return 1 for success and a zero or negative value for
failure. If module errors are not ignored the return code will reflect
the return value of the failing module (this will always be zero or
negative).
