+=head1 NAME
+
+NCONF_new_with_libctx, NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_default, NCONF_load
+- functionality to Load and parse configuration files manually
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/conf.h>
+
+ CONF *NCONF_new_with_libctx(OPENSSL_CTX *libctx, CONF_METHOD *meth);
+ CONF *NCONF_new(CONF_METHOD *meth);
+ void NCONF_free(CONF *conf);
+ CONF_METHOD *NCONF_default(void);
+ int NCONF_load(CONF *conf, const char *file, long *eline);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+NCONF_new_with_libctx() creates a new CONF object in heap memory and assigns to
+it a context I<libctx> that can be used during loading. If the method table
+I<meth> is set to NULL then the default value of NCONF_default() is used.
+
+NCONF_new() is similar to NCONF_new_with_libctx() but sets the I<libctx> to NULL.
+
+NCONF_free() frees the data associated with I<conf> and then frees the I<conf>
+object.
+
+NCONF_load() parses the file named I<filename> and adds the values found to
+I<conf>. If an error occurs I<file> and I<eline> list the file and line that
+the load failed on if they are not NULL.
+
+NCONF_default() gets the default method table for processing a configuration file.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+NCONF_load() returns 1 on success or 0 on error.
+
+NCONF_new_with_libctx() and NCONF_new() return a newly created I<CONF> object
+or NULL if an error occurs.
