Final revision of SSLeay 0.8.1a for VMS released.
First revision of SSLeay 0.9.0a for VMS released.
Hello,
I've finally come to the point where I don't think I want or need to do
more work with SSLeay 0.8.1a. It is time to move on, so I decided to
make a final revision (19990219) that includes fixes to all bugs that
have been reported, insertion of fixes that have been sent to me, and
fixes for bugs I found myself. No more work will be done with this
version of SSLeay.
I've spent the last few days with SSLeay 0.9.0a, inserting all the
changes from 0.8.1a, and doing all further changes that were needed to
make it compile properly. It is time to make a release (19990220).
Two things are worth keeping in mind:
- If you want to make the libraries workable on all VMS versions from
6.0 and up (and possibly 5.5 as well, with the right compatibility
library), you need to read [.HAKMEM]LEVITTE.NOTES.
- If you're upgrading from SSLeay 0.8.1a or lower, *relinking is not
enough*! If you have a program that uses RSA, that you want to link
with SSLeay 0.9.0a, and you don't use RSAref, you *have to recompile*!
the reason for this is the change of values of three C macros in
rsa.h.
The kits can be found in ftp://ftp.lp.se/vms/, and have the follownig
names:
- SSLEAY-0_8_1A-RL-19990219.TAR-GZ (SSLeay 0.8.1a-RL)
- SSLEAY-0_9_0A-RL-19990219.TAR-GZ (SSLeay 0.9.0a-RL)
You need GNU zip and VMSTAR to unpack these.
For further reading, please see http://www.free.lp.se/ssleay/.
Discussions about my port of SSLeay should be held in discuss@free.lp.se.
Bug reports should go to bugs@free.lp.se.
Bug reports for SSLeay 0.8.1a-RL will be accepted, but the fixes will be
inserted into SSLeay 0.9.0a-RL. To get the fixes, you will have to
upgrade.
