library, the output buffer always is large enough, but if the tlen
parameter is there, it should be checked in the interest of clarity,
as proposed by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>.
returns int (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). New function RAND_add() is the
same as RAND_seed() but takes an estimate of the entropy as an additional
argument.
OpenSSL is compiled with NO_RSA, no RSA operations can be used: including
key generation storage and display of RSA keys. Since these operations are
not covered by the RSA patent (my understanding is it only covers encrypt,
decrypt, sign and verify) they can be included: this is an often requested
feature, attempts to use the patented operations return an error code.
This is enabled by setting RSA_NULL. This means that if a particular application
has its own legal US RSA implementation then it can use that instead by setting
it as the default RSA method.
Still experimental and needs some fiddling of the other libraries so they have
some options that don't attempt to use RSA if it isn't allowed.
in cryptlib.h (which is often included as "../cryptlib.h"), then the
question remains relative to which directory this is to be interpreted.
gcc went one further directory up, as intended; but makedepend thinks
differently, and so probably do some C compilers. So the ../ must go away;
thus e_os.h goes back into include/openssl (but I now use
#include "openssl/e_os.h" instead of <openssl/e_os.h> to make the point) --
and we have another huge bunch of dependency changes. Argh.
There were problems with putting e_os.h just into the top directory,
because the test programs are compiled within test/ in the "standard"
case in in their original directories in the makefile.one case;
and in the latter symlinks may not be available.
to error code script: it can now find untranslatable function codes (usually
because the function is static and not defined in a header: occasionally because
of a typo...) and unreferenced function and reason codes. To see this try:
perl util/mkerr.pl -recurse -debug
Also fixed some typos in crypto/pkcs12 that this found :-)
Also tidy up some error calls that had to be all on one line: the old error
script couldn't find codes unless the call was all on one line.
script, translates function codes better and doesn't need the K&R function
prototypes to work (NB. the K&R prototypes can't be wiped just yet: they are
still needed by the DEF generator...). I also ran the script with the -rewrite
option to update all the header and source files.
consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'. Additonally
cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary semicolons, subsequent
redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh to speed processing and no
longer clutter the display with confusing stuff. Instead only the actually
done links are displayed.
without -debug option to mk1mf.pl. Change _export to is_export (_export is
a reserved word under VC++). Add yucky function prototype function pointer
casts. Sanitise the included files in crypto/x509v3.
Also changed ssleay.exe target to openssl.exe
1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no longer need
them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary files which
were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where I've verified
that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff -rSSLeay_0_8_1b"
or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for the crypto/md/
stuff).
We've still a horrible mess under crypto/bn/asm/. There for a lot of files
I'm sure whether we need them or not. So, when someone knows it better, feel
free to cleanup there.
1. The already released version was 0.9.1c and not 0.9.1b
2. The next release should be 0.9.2 and not 0.9.1d, because
first the changes are already too large, second we should avoid any more
0.9.1x confusions and third, the Apache version semantics of
VERSION.REVISION.PATCHLEVEL for the version string is reasonable (and here
.2 is already just a patchlevel and not major change).
