BN_init() +initializes an existing uninitialized B. + +BN_clear() is used to destroy sensitive data such as keys when they +are no longer needed. It erases the memory used by B and sets it +to the value 0. + +BN_free() frees the components of the B, and if it was created +by BN_new(), also the structure itself. BN_clear_free() additionally +overwrites the data before the memory is returned to the system. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +BN_new() returns a pointer to the B. If the allocation fails, +it returns B and sets an error code that can be obtained +by L. + +BN_init(), BN_clear(), BN_free() and BN_clear_free() have no return +values. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L, L + +=head1 HISTORY + +BN_new(), BN_clear(), BN_free() and BN_clear_free() are available in +all versions on SSLeay and OpenSSL. BN_init() was added in SSLeay +0.9.1b. + +=cut
