Why would you believe that ENGINE_register / ENGINE_unregister are
the calls to load/unload an engine? These calls are for <u>after</u>
the engine has been loaded:<br>
<blockquote><font face="monospace">/*- Manage registration of
ENGINEs per "table". For each type, there are 3</font><br>
<font face="monospace"> * functions;</font><br>
<font face="monospace"> * ENGINE_register_***(e) - registers the
implementation from 'e' (if it has one)</font><br>
<font face="monospace"> * ENGINE_unregister_***(e) - unregister
the implementation from 'e'</font><br>
<font face="monospace"> * ENGINE_register_all_***() - call
ENGINE_register_***() for each 'e' in the list</font><br>
<font face="monospace"> * Cleanup is automatically registered from
each table when required.</font><br>
<font face="monospace"> */</font><br>
</blockquote>
Might I suggest reading the manual pages? Start with ENGINE_add().<br>

We have crypto engines for offloading operations like RSA,
digests and ciphers, hmac etc. We are looking at a way to
load and unload engines at run time. This is needed as we
need to use the engine when needed for crypto operations.
Else we plan to use openssl for the same.<br>
<br>
We tried, <br>
-> unregister calls like ENGINE_unregister_XXX calls to
force redirection to openssl<br>
-> Again, ENGINE_register_XXX to redirect to engine.<br>
<br>
However, the above methods are not helping. Please suggest a
way to achieve the above requirement.<br>
