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).
