# NAME

ERR_load_crypto_strings, SSL_load_error_strings, ERR_free_strings - load and free error strings

# SYNOPSIS

Deprecated:

     #include <openssl/err.h>

     #if OPENSSL_API_COMPAT < 0x10100000L
     void ERR_load_crypto_strings(void);
     void ERR_free_strings(void);
     #endif

     #include <openssl/ssl.h>

     #if OPENSSL_API_COMPAT < 0x10100000L
     void SSL_load_error_strings(void);
     #endif

# DESCRIPTION

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

In versions prior to OpenSSL 1.1.0, `ERR_free_strings()` releases any resources created by the above functions.

# RETURN VALUES

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

# SEE ALSO

ERR_error_string(3)

# HISTORY

The `ERR_load_crypto_strings()`, `SSL_load_error_strings()`, and `ERR_free_strings()` functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 1.1.0 by `OPENSSL_init_crypto()` and `OPENSSL_init_ssl()` and should not be used.
