ERR_get_next_error_library.3ssl

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);
 
 

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, 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 VALUE

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

HISTORY

ERR_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.
