These are a set of modules which can perform -various configuration functions. - -Currently the routines should be called at most once when an application -starts up: that is before it starts any threads. - -The routines read a configuration file set up like this: - ------ -#default section -openssl_conf=init_section - -[init_section] - -module1=value1 -#Second instance of module1 -module1.1=valueX -module2=value2 -module3=dso_literal -module4=dso_section - -[dso_section] - -path=/some/path/to/some/dso.so -other_stuff=other_value ----- - -When this file is loaded a configuration module with the specified string -(module* in the above example) is looked up and its init function called as: - -int conf_init_func(CONF_IMODULE *md, CONF *cnf); - -The function can then take whatever action is appropriate, for example further -lookups based on the value.
