\& #include <openssl/dsa.h>
.Ve
.PP
The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
hidden entirely by defining \fBOPENSSL_API_COMPAT\fR with a suitable version value,
see \fBopenssl_user_macros\fR\|(7):

.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
Applications should instead use \fBEVP_PKEY_new\fR\|(3) and \fBEVP_PKEY_free\fR\|(3).
.PP
\&\fBDSA_new()\fR allocates and initializes a \fBDSA\fR structure. It is equivalent to
calling DSA_new_method(NULL).
.PP
\&\fBDSA_free()\fR frees the \fBDSA\fR structure and its components. The values are
erased before the memory is returned to the system.
If \fBdsa\fR is NULL nothing is done.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
If the allocation fails, \fBDSA_new()\fR returns \fBNULL\fR and sets an error
code that can be obtained by
\&\fBERR_get_error\fR\|(3). Otherwise it returns a pointer
to the newly allocated structure.
.PP
\&\fBDSA_free()\fR returns no value.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.IX Header "SEE ALSO"
