NAME
OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms,
OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers,
OpenSSL_add_all_digests,
EVP_cleanup —
add algorithms to internal
table
SYNOPSIS
#include
<openssl/evp.h>
void
OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms(void);
void
OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers(void);
void
OpenSSL_add_all_digests(void);
void
EVP_cleanup(void);
DESCRIPTION
These functions are deprecated. It is never useful for any application program to call any of them explicitly. The library automatically calls them internally whenever needed.OpenSSL keeps an internal table of digest algorithms and ciphers. It uses this table to look up ciphers via functions such as EVP_get_cipherbyname(3).
OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms()
adds all algorithms to the table (digests and ciphers).
OpenSSL_add_all_digests()
adds all digest algorithms to the table.
OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers()
adds all encryption algorithms to the table including password based
encryption algorithms.
If any of the above functions is called more than once, only the first call has an effect.
EVP_cleanup()
removes all ciphers and digests from the table.

BUGS
Although the functions do not return error codes, it is possible for them to fail. This will only happen as a result of a memory allocation failure so this is not too much of a problem in practice.
