NAME
oath_init - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <oath.h>
oath_init(3) void);
ARGUMENTS
void
DESCRIPTION
This function initializes the OATH library. Every user of this library
needs to call this function before using other functions. You should
call oath_done() when use of the OATH library is no longer needed.
Note that this function may also initialize Libgcrypt, if the OATH
library is built with libgcrypt support and libgcrypt has not been
initialized before. Thus if you want to manually initialize libgcrypt
you must do it before calling this function. This is useful in cases you
want to disable libgcrypt's internal lockings etc.
RETURNS
On success, OATH_OK (zero) is returned, otherwise an error code is
returned.
