=head1 SYNOPSIS
=item *
-CRYPTO_THREAD_lock_frees() frees the provided B<lock>.
+CRYPTO_THREAD_lock_free() frees the provided B<lock>.
=item *
CRYPTO_THREAD_lock_new() returns the allocated lock, or NULL on error.
-CRYPTO_THREAD_lock_frees() returns no value.
+CRYPTO_THREAD_lock_free() returns no value.
-The other functions return 1 on success or 0 on error.
+The other functions return 1 on success, or 0 on error.
=head1 NOTES
application developer's responsibility to include windows.h prior to
crypto.h where use of CRYPTO_THREAD_* types and functions is required.
-=head1 EXAMPLE
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+You can find out if OpenSSL was configured with thread support:
+
+ #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
+ #if defined(OPENSSL_THREADS)
+ /* thread support enabled */
+ #else
+ /* no thread support */
+ #endif
This example safely initializes and uses a lock.
- #ifdef _WIN32
- # include <windows.h>
- #endif
- #include <openssl/crypto.h>
-
- static CRYPTO_ONCE once = CRYPTO_ONCE_STATIC_INIT;
- static CRYPTO_RWLOCK *lock;
-
- static void myinit(void)
- {
- lock = CRYPTO_THREAD_lock_new();
- }
-
- static int mylock(void)
- {
- if (!CRYPTO_THREAD_run_once(&once, void init) || lock == NULL)
- return 0;
- return CRYPTO_THREAD_write_lock(lock);
- }
-
- static int myunlock(void)
- {
- return CRYPTO_THREAD_unlock(lock);
- }
-
- int serialized(void)
- {
- int ret = 0;
-
- if (mylock()) {
- /* Your code here, do not return without releasing the lock! */
- ret = ... ;
- }
- myunlock();
- return ret;
- }
+ #ifdef _WIN32
+ # include <windows.h>
+ #endif
+ #include <openssl/crypto.h>
+
+ static CRYPTO_ONCE once = CRYPTO_ONCE_STATIC_INIT;
+ static CRYPTO_RWLOCK *lock;
+
+ static void myinit(void)

+ if (!CRYPTO_THREAD_run_once(&once, void init) || lock == NULL)
+ return 0;
+ return CRYPTO_THREAD_write_lock(lock);
+ }
+

+ }
+

+ }
+ myunlock();
+ return ret;
+ }
Finalization of locks is an advanced topic, not covered in this example.
This can only be done at process exit or when a dynamically loaded library is
The simplest solution is to just "leak" the lock in applications and not
repeatedly load/unload shared libraries that allocate locks.
