CONF_modules_load_file(2/Mar/2004 (0.9.7CONF_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).
