DSA_SIG_new() allocates and initializes a B<DSA_SIG> structure.

DSA_SIG_new() allocates an empty B<DSA_SIG> structure.



DSA_SIG_free() frees the B<DSA_SIG> structure and its components. The

values are erased before the memory is returned to the system.

B<ECDSA_SIG> is an opaque structure consisting of two BIGNUMs for the

ECDSA_SIG_new() allocates a new B<ECDSA_SIG> structure (note: this

function also allocates the BIGNUMs) and initializes it.
