|
|
The \fIBIO_new()\fR function returns a new \s-1BIO\s0 using method \fBtype\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_set()\fR sets the method of an already existing \s-1BIO\s0.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_free()\fR frees up a single \s-1BIO\s0, \fIBIO_vfree()\fR also frees up a single \s-1BIO\s0
|
|
but it does not return a value. Calling \fIBIO_free()\fR may also have some effect
|
|
on the underlying I/O structure, for example it may close the file being
|
|
referred to under certain circumstances. For more details see the individual
|
|
\&\s-1BIO_METHOD\s0 descriptions.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_free_all()\fR frees up an entire \s-1BIO\s0 chain, it does not halt if an error
|
|
occurs freeing up an individual \s-1BIO\s0 in the chain.
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
|
|
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
|
|
\&\fIBIO_new()\fR returns a newly created \s-1BIO\s0 or \s-1NULL\s0 if the call fails.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_set()\fR, \fIBIO_free()\fR return 1 for success and 0 for failure.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fIBIO_free_all()\fR and \fIBIO_vfree()\fR do not return values.
|
|
.SH "NOTES"
|
|
.IX Header "NOTES"
|
|
Some BIOs (such as memory BIOs) can be used immediately after calling
|
|
\&\fIBIO_new()\fR. Others (such as file BIOs) need some additional initialization,
|
|
and frequently a utility function exists to create and initialize such BIOs.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If \fIBIO_free()\fR is called on a \s-1BIO\s0 chain it will only free one \s-1BIO\s0 resulting
|
|
in a memory leak.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Calling \fIBIO_free_all()\fR a single \s-1BIO\s0 has the same effect as calling \fIBIO_free()\fR
|
|
on it other than the discarded return value.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Normally the \fBtype\fR argument is supplied by a function which returns a
|
|
pointer to a \s-1BIO_METHOD\s0. There is a naming convention for such functions:
|
|
a source/sink \s-1BIO\s0 is normally called BIO_s_*() and a filter \s-1BIO\s0
|
|
BIO_f_*();
