  3. NCONF_new_ex, NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_default, NCONF_load
  4. - functionality to Load and parse configuration files manually
  5. =head1 SYNOPSIS
  6. #include <openssl/conf.h>
  7. CONF *NCONF_new_ex(OPENSSL_CTX *libctx, CONF_METHOD *meth);
  8. CONF *NCONF_new(CONF_METHOD *meth);
  9. void NCONF_free(CONF *conf);
  10. CONF_METHOD *NCONF_default(void);
  11. int NCONF_load(CONF *conf, const char *file, long *eline);
  12. =head1 DESCRIPTION
  13. NCONF_new_ex() creates a new CONF object in heap memory and assigns to
  14. it a context I<libctx> that can be used during loading. If the method table
  15. I<meth> is set to NULL then the default value of NCONF_default() is used.
  16. NCONF_new() is similar to NCONF_new_ex() but sets the I<libctx> to NULL.
  17. NCONF_free() frees the data associated with I<conf> and then frees the I<conf>
  18. object.
  19. NCONF_load() parses the file named I<filename> and adds the values found to
  20. I<conf>. If an error occurs I<file> and I<eline> list the file and line that
  21. the load failed on if they are not NULL.
  22. NCONF_default() gets the default method table for processing a configuration file.
  23. =head1 RETURN VALUES
  24. NCONF_load() returns 1 on success or 0 on error.
  25. NCONF_new_ex() and NCONF_new() return a newly created I<CONF> object
  26. or NULL if an error occurs.
