DSA_new(3)                   OpenSSL                   DSA_new(3)

NAME
       DSA_new, DSA_free - allocate and free DSA objects

SYNOPSIS
        #include 

        DSA* DSA_new(void);

        void DSA_free(DSA *dsa);

DESCRIPTION
       DSA_new() allocates and initializes a DSA structure. It is
       equivalent to calling DSA_new_method(NULL).

       DSA_free() frees the DSA structure and its components. The
       values are erased before the memory is returned to the
       system.

RETURN VALUES
       If the allocation fails, DSA_new() returns NULL and sets
       an error code that can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3).
       Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated
       structure.

       DSA_free() returns no value.
