+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
+Applications should instead use the provider APIs.
+.PP
+A \fBDH_METHOD\fR specifies the functions that OpenSSL uses for Diffie\-Hellman
+operations. By modifying the method, alternative implementations
+such as hardware accelerators may be used. IMPORTANT: See the NOTES section for
+important information about how these DH API functions are affected by the use
+of \fBENGINE\fR API calls.
+.PP
+Initially, the default DH_METHOD is the OpenSSL internal implementation, as
+returned by \fBDH_OpenSSL()\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fBDH_set_default_method()\fR makes \fBmeth\fR the default method for all DH
+structures created later.
+\&\fBNB\fR: This is true only whilst no ENGINE has been set
+as a default for DH, so this function is no longer recommended.
+This function is not thread\-safe and should not be called at the same time
+as other OpenSSL functions.
+.PP
+\&\fBDH_get_default_method()\fR returns a pointer to the current default DH_METHOD.
+However, the meaningfulness of this result is dependent on whether the ENGINE
+API is being used, so this function is no longer recommended.
+.PP
+\&\fBDH_set_method()\fR selects \fBmeth\fR to perform all operations using the key \fBdh\fR.
+This will replace the DH_METHOD used by the DH key and if the previous method
+was supplied by an ENGINE, the handle to that ENGINE will be released during the
+change. It is possible to have DH keys that only work with certain DH_METHOD
+implementations (e.g. from an ENGINE module that supports embedded
+hardware\-protected keys), and in such cases attempting to change the DH_METHOD
+for the key can have unexpected results.
+.PP
+\&\fBDH_new_method()\fR allocates and initializes a DH structure so that \fBengine\fR will
+be used for the DH operations. If \fBengine\fR is NULL, the default ENGINE for DH
+operations is used, and if no default ENGINE is set, the DH_METHOD controlled by
+\&\fBDH_set_default_method()\fR is used.
+.PP
+A new DH_METHOD object may be constructed using \fBDH_meth_new()\fR (see
+\&\fBDH_meth_new\fR\|(3)).
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+\&\fBDH_OpenSSL()\fR and \fBDH_get_default_method()\fR return pointers to the respective
+\&\fBDH_METHOD\fRs.
+.PP
+\&\fBDH_set_default_method()\fR returns no value.
+.PP
+\&\fBDH_set_method()\fR returns nonzero if the provided \fBmeth\fR was successfully set as
+the method for \fBdh\fR (including unloading the ENGINE handle if the previous
+method was supplied by an ENGINE).
+.PP
+\&\fBDH_new_method()\fR returns NULL and sets an error code that can be obtained by
+\&\fBERR_get_error\fR\|(3) if the allocation fails. Otherwise it
+returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure.
