16 DH_new() allocates and initializes a DH structure.
17
18 DH_free() frees the DH structure and its components. The values are
19 erased before the memory is returned to the system.
20
22 If the allocation fails, DH_new() returns NULL and sets an error code
23 that can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3). Otherwise it returns a
24 pointer to the newly allocated structure.
25
26 DH_free() returns no value.
