+ void ERR_remove_thread_state(void);
Deprecated:
=head1 DESCRIPTION
-ERR_remove_thread_state() frees the error queue associated with thread B<tid>.
-If B<tid> == B<NULL>, the current thread will have its error queue removed.
+ERR_remove_thread_state() frees the error queue associated with the current
+thread.
Since error queue data structures are allocated automatically for new
threads, they must be freed when threads are terminated in order to
avoid memory leaks.
ERR_remove_state is deprecated and has been replaced by
-ERR_remove_thread_state. Since threads in OpenSSL are no longer identified
-by unsigned long values any argument to this function is ignored. Calling
-ERR_remove_state is equivalent to B<ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL)>.
+ERR_remove_thread_state. Any argument to this function is ignored and
