.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fIERR_get_error()\fR returns the earliest error code from the thread's error
queue and removes the entry. This function can be called repeatedly
until there are no more error codes to return.
.PP
\&\fIERR_peek_error()\fR returns the earliest error code from the thread's
error queue without modifying it.
.PP
\&\fIERR_peek_last_error()\fR returns the latest error code from the thread's
error queue without modifying it.
.PP
See \s-1\fIERR_GET_LIB\s0\fR\|(3) for obtaining information about
location and reason of the error, and
\&\fIERR_error_string\fR\|(3) for human-readable error
messages.
.PP
\&\fIERR_get_error_line()\fR, \fIERR_peek_error_line()\fR and
\&\fIERR_peek_last_error_line()\fR are the same as the above, but they
additionally store the file name and line number where
the error occurred in *\fBfile\fR and *\fBline\fR, unless these are \fB\s-1NULL\s0\fR.
.PP
\&\fIERR_get_error_line_data()\fR, \fIERR_peek_error_line_data()\fR and
\&\fIERR_peek_last_error_line_data()\fR store additional data and flags
associated with the error code in *\fBdata\fR
and *\fBflags\fR, unless these are \fB\s-1NULL\s0\fR. *\fBdata\fR contains a string
if *\fBflags\fR&\fB\s-1ERR_TXT_STRING\s0\fR is true.
.PP
An application \fB\s-1MUST\s0 \s-1NOT\s0\fR free the *\fBdata\fR pointer (or any other pointers
returned by these functions) with \fIOPENSSL_free()\fR as freeing is handled
automatically by the error library.

\&\fIERR_get_error()\fR, \fIERR_peek_error()\fR, \fIERR_get_error_line()\fR and

OpenSSL. \fIERR_get_error_line_data()\fR and \fIERR_peek_error_line_data()\fR
were added in SSLeay 0.9.0.
\&\fIERR_peek_last_error()\fR, \fIERR_peek_last_error_line()\fR and
\&\fIERR_peek_last_error_line_data()\fR were added in OpenSSL 0.9.7.
