NAME
SSL_library_init, OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms - initialize SSL library by registering algorithms
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
int SSL_library_init(void);
int OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(void);
DESCRIPTION
SSL_library_init() registers the available
SSL/TLS ciphers and digests.
OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms() is a synonym for SSL_library_init() and is
implemented as a macro.
NOTES
SSL_library_init() must be called before any other action takes place.
SSL_library_init() is not reentrant.
WARNINGS
SSL_library_init() adds ciphers and digests used directly and indirectly by
SSL/TLS.
RETURN VALUES
SSL_library_init() always returns ``1'', so it is safe to discard the return
value.
SEE ALSO
ssl(7),
RAND_add(3)
HISTORY
The
SSL_library_init() and
OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms() functions were
deprecated in OpenSSL 1.1.0 by
OPENSSL_init_ssl().
