NAME

       openssl_user_macros, OPENSSL_API_COMPAT, OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED - User
       defined macros


DESCRIPTION

       User defined macros allow the programmer to control certain aspects of
       what is exposed by the OpenSSL headers.

       NOTE: to be effective, a user defined macro must be defined before
       including any header file that depends on it, either in the compilation
       command ("cc -DMACRO=value") or by defining the macro in source before
       including any headers.

       Other manual pages may refer to this page when declarations depend on
       user defined macros.

   The macros
       OPENSSL_API_COMPAT
           The value is a version number, given in one of the following two
           forms:

           "0xMNNFF000L"
               This is the form supported for all versions up to 1.1.x, where
               "M" represents the major number, "NN" represents the minor
               number, and "FF" represents the fix number, as a hexadecimal
               number.  For version 1.1.0, that's "0x10100000L".

               Any version number may be given, but these numbers are the
               current known major deprecation points, making them the most
               meaningful:

               "0x00908000L" (version 0.9.8)
               "0x10000000L" (version 1.0.0)
               "0x10100000L" (version 1.1.0)

               For convenience, higher numbers are accepted as well, as long
               as feasible.  For example, "0x60000000L" will work as expected.
               However, it is recommended to start using the second form
               instead:

           "mmnnpp"
               This form is a simple decimal number calculated with this
               formula:

               major * 10000 + minor * 100 + patch

               where major, minor and patch are the desired major, minor and
               patch components of the version number.  For example:

               30000 corresponds to version 3.0.0
               10002 corresponds to version 1.0.2
               420101 corresponds to version 42.1.1

           If OPENSSL_API_COMPAT is undefined, this default value is used in
           its place: 30300

       OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED
           If this macro is defined, all deprecated public symbols in all
           OpenSSL versions up to and including the version given by
           OPENSSL_API_COMPAT (or the default value given above, when
           OPENSSL_API_COMPAT isn't defined) will be hidden.
