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);
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.
