DSA_SIG_new(3)               OpenSSL               DSA_SIG_new(3)

NAME

     DSA_SIG_new, DSA_SIG_free - allocate and free DSA signature
     objects

SYNOPSIS

      #include <openssl/dsa.h>

      DSA_SIG *DSA_SIG_new(void);

      void   DSA_SIG_free(DSA_SIG *a);

DESCRIPTION

     DSA_SIG_new() allocates and initializes a DSA_SIG structure.

     DSA_SIG_free() frees the DSA_SIG structure and its
     components. The values are erased before the memory is
     returned to the system.

RETURN VALUES

     If the allocation fails, DSA_SIG_new() returns NULL and sets
     an error code that can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3).
     Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated
     structure.

     DSA_SIG_free() returns no value.
