> Thrift's C++ TSSLSocketFactory controls OpenSSL library 
> initialization/cleanup.  It initializes OpenSSL itself and de-initializes 
> OpenSSL after the last TSSLSocketFactory is destroyed.  However, programs may 
> need to initialize OpenSSL themselves (e.g. they have other dependencies that 
> want to use OpenSSL) and may depend on OpenSSL functionality after the last 
> TSSLSocketFactory is destroyed.
> I propose a mechanism to set TSSLSocketFactory to allow manual OpenSSL 
> initialization/cleanup, and to expose the initializeOpenSSL/cleanupOpenSSL 
> functions to the user.  As a result, a user can choose when OpenSSL is 
> initialized and cleaned up, and can even use the prior Thrift code for 
> performing this initialization/cleanup if it is sufficient for their needs.  
> However, by default, OpenSSL initialization/cleanup will be automatic, so 
> only people who care about taking control of OpenSSL initialization/cleanup 
> will need to do anything.
