NAME

BIO_f_null - null filter

LIBRARY

libcrypto, -lcrypto

SYNOPSIS


 #include 


 BIO_METHOD *   BIO_f_null(void);

DESCRIPTION

_B_I_O___f___n_u_l_l_(_) returns the null filter BIO method. This is a filter BIO that does nothing.

All requests to a null filter BIO are passed through to the next BIO in the chain: this means that a BIO chain containing a null filter BIO behaves just as though the BIO was not there.

NOTES

As may be apparent a null filter BIO is not particularly useful.

RETURN VALUES

_B_I_O___f___n_u_l_l_(_) returns the null filter BIO method.
