Using RAND_status()

[Jayme Mikko Ancla]

Hello Openssl-Users,

I would like to know if my use of RAND_status() like below is correct:

















*int MyInitFunc(void) {  char* pathOfProviders;  pathOfProviders =
getenv("PATH_OF_PROVIDERS");  DbgMsg("MyInitFunc() START\n");
OSSL_PROVIDER_set_default_search_path (NULL, pathOfProviders);
provider_legacy = OSSL_PROVIDER_load(NULL, "legacy");  if (NULL ==
provider_legacy) {     DbgMsg("MyInitFunc() provider_legacy is NULL\n");
}  if (RAND_status() != 1) {    RAND_seed(rnd_seed, sizeof rnd_seed);  }
DbgMsg("MyInitFunc() END\n");  return CRY_OK;}*

I called RAND_status immediately after OSSL_PROVIDER_load.
Is there anything I have to do before calling RAND_status()?

Thank you for your time.
Regards,
Jayme
