CONFmodulesloadfile(3) OpenSSL CONFmodulesloadfile(3)

NAME
        CONFmodulesloadfile, CONFmodulesload - OpenSSL configuration functions

SYNOPSIS
        #include 

        int CONFmodulesloadfile(const char *filename, const char *appname,
                                  unsigned long flags);
        int CONFmodulesload(const CONF *cnf, const char *appname,
                             unsigned long flags);

DESCRIPTION
       The function CONFmodulesloadfile() configures OpenSSL using file
       ffiilleennaammee and application name aappppnnaammee. If ffiilleennaammee is NULL the standard
       OpenSSL configuration file is used. If aappppnnaammee is NULL the standard
       OpenSSL application name ooppeennssssllccoonnff is used.  The behaviour can be
       cutomized using ffllaaggss.

       CONFmodulesload() is idential to CONFmodulesloadfile() except it
       read configuration information from ccnnff.

NNOOTTEESS
       The following ffllaaggss are currently recognized:

       CCOONNFFMMFFLLAAGGSSIIGGNNOORREEEERRRROORRSS 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 CCOONNFFMMFFLLAAGGSSSSIILLEENNTT is set no error information is added.

       If CCOONNFFMMFFLLAAGGSSNNOODDSSOO is set configuration module loading from DSOs is
       disabled.

       CCOONNFFMMFFLLAAGGSSIIGGNNOORREEMMIISSSSIINNGGFFIILLEE if set will make
       CONFloadmodulesfile() ignore missing configuration files. Normally a
       missing configuration file return an error.

RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEE
       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).
