|
BIO_s_null - null data sink
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
#include <openssl/bio.h>
|
|
|
|
BIO_METHOD * BIO_s_null(void);
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
BIO_s_null() returns the null sink BIO method. Data written to
|
|
the null sink is discarded, reads return EOF.
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
A null sink BIO behaves in a similar manner to the Unix /dev/null
|
|
device.
|
|
|
|
A null bio can be placed on the end of a chain to discard any data
|
|
passed through it.
|
|
|
|
A null sink is useful if, for example, an application wishes to digest some
|
|
data by writing through a digest bio but not send the digested data anywhere.
|
|
Since a BIO chain must normally include a source/sink BIO this can be achieved
|
|
by adding a null sink BIO to the end of the chain
