-=head1 NAME
-
-SSL_library_init, OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms, SSLeay_add_ssl_algorithms
-- initialize SSL library by registering algorithms
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
- #include <openssl/ssl.h>
-
- int SSL_library_init(void);
- #define OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms() SSL_library_init()
- #define SSLeay_add_ssl_algorithms() SSL_library_init()
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-SSL_library_init() registers the available ciphers and digests.
-
-OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms() and SSLeay_add_ssl_algorithms() are synonyms
-for SSL_library_init().
-
-=head1 NOTES
-
-SSL_library_init() must be called before any other action takes place.
-
-=head1 WARNING
-
-SSL_library_init() only registers ciphers. Another important initialization
-is the seeding of the PRNG (Pseudo Random Number Generator), which has to
-be performed separately.
-
-=head1 EXAMPLES
-
-A typical TLS/SSL application will start with the library initialization,
-will provide readable error messages and will seed the PRNG.
-
- SSL_load_error_strings(); /* readable error messages */
- SSL_library_init(); /* initialize library */
- actions_to_seed_PRNG();
-
-=head1 RETURN VALUES
-
-SSL_library_init() always returns "1", so it is safe to discard the return
-value.
