the following flags are defined:
- OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
- This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
- element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
- number.

+ This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first

- OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
- This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
- element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
- if there are more than one element where the comparing function
- returns zero.

To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
in the source file (foo.c) like this:
- OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
- OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
+ OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
+ OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
- OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
- #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
- OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
- #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
+ OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
+ #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
+ OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
+ #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
