=head1 NAME

ERR_load_crypto_strings, SSL_load_error_strings, ERR_free_strings -
load and free error strings

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 #include <openssl/err.h>

 void ERR_load_crypto_strings(void);
 void ERR_free_strings(void);

 #include <openssl/ssl.h>

 void SSL_load_error_strings(void);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

ERR_load_crypto_strings() registers the error strings for all
B<libcrypto> functions. SSL_load_error_strings() does the same,
but also registers the B<libssl> error strings.

One of these functions should be called before generating
textual error messages. However, this is not required when memory
usage is an issue.

ERR_free_strings() frees all previously loaded error strings.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

ERR_load_crypto_strings(), SSL_load_error_strings() and
ERR_free_strings() return no values.

=head1 SEE ALSO

L<err(3)|err(3)>, L<ERR_error_string(3)|ERR_error_string(3)>

=head1 HISTORY

ERR_load_error_strings(), SSL_load_error_strings() and
ERR_free_strings() are available in all versions of SSLeay and
OpenSSL.
