Hi, I'm reading the documentation for ERR_get_error_line_data() here: http://www.openssl.org/docs/crypto/ERR_get_error.html
The comments say that 'data' is dynamically allocated with OPENSSL_malloc() if the ERR_TXT_MALLOCED bit is set in 'flags'. I presume this means that we need to call OPENSSL_free() to free 'data', but the documentation isn't clear on that. I'm running into two issues in this regard. For one, 'data' is a 'const char*', but OPENSSL_free() takes a 'void*', so we get a type mismatch. See my sample code here, which includes the compiler error message: http://pastebin.com/VNdkwf0G The second issue is that I've been looking around on the web (in particular on Ohloh) for usage of ERR_get_error_line_data(), and no one seems to be checking for the ERR_TXT_MALLOCED bit in 'flags'. Maybe doing so isn't necessary, but the documentation seems to suggest that it is. Can someone please help clarify what exactly to do here?
