[openssl-users] openssl 1.1.1 opaque structures

[priya p]

Thanks Matt and Richard.

BIGNUM structure also has been made opaque. How to refer the members of
BIGNUM structure like bn->top ?
And I don't see this API implementation ""lh_OPENSSL_CSTRING_new" in
openssl-1.1.1 ?
Is it removed ?

Thanks,
Priya
