functions in ui_compat. This gave reason to rework that part more
thoroughly, so here are the changes made:
1. Add DES_read_password() and DES_read_2passwords() with the same
functionality as the corresponding old des_ functions, as a
convenience to the users.
2. Add UI_UTIL_read_pw_string() and UI_UTIL_read_pw() with the
functionality from des_read_pw_string() and des_read_pw(), again as
a concenience to the users.
3. Rename des_read_password(), des_read_2passwords(),
des_read_pw_string() and des_read_pw() by changing des_ to
_ossl_old_des_, and add the usual mapping macros.
4. Move the implementation of des_read_password() and
des_read_2passwords() to the des directory, since they are tightly
tied to DES anyway.
This change was inspired by a patch from Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>:
There are some functions that didn't get the kick-away-old-des-and-
replace-des-with-DES action. Here's a patch that adds DES_ and des_
(in des_old.h) versions of des_read_pw_string et al. This patch
includes some of the first des_old.h semi-colon macro fixes that I've
already sent.
libdes (which is still used out there) or other des implementations,
the OpenSSL DES functions are renamed to begin with DES_ instead of
des_. Compatibility routines are provided and declared by including
openssl/des_old.h. Those declarations are the same as were in des.h
when the OpenSSL project started, which is exactly how libdes looked
at that time, and hopefully still looks today.
The compatibility functions will be removed in some future release, at
the latest in version 1.0.
(meaning pointer to char) to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to
array with 8 char elements), which allows the compiler to
do more typechecking. (The changed argument types were of type
des_cblock * back in SSLeay, and a lot of ugly casts were
used then to turn them into pointers to elements; but it can be
done without those casts.)
Introduce new type const_des_cblock -- before, the pointers rather
than the elements pointed to were declared const, and for
some reason gcc did not complain about this (but some other
compilers did).
