     DSA_SIG_new(3)         0.9.6h (2002-09-25)         DSA_SIG_new(3)

     NAME
          DSA_SIG_new, DSA_SIG_free - allocate and free DSA signature
          objects

     SYNOPSIS
           #include <openssl/dsa.h>

           DSA_SIG *DSA_SIG_new(void);

           void   DSA_SIG_free(DSA_SIG *a);

     DESCRIPTION
          DSA_SIG_new() allocates and initializes a DSA_SIG structure.

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

     RETURN VALUES
          If the allocation fails, DSA_SIG_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_SIG_free() returns no value.

     HISTORY
          DSA_SIG_new() and DSA_SIG_free() were added in OpenSSL
          0.9.3.
