I just got a report that OpenSSL 0.9.4 currently doesn't compile
cleanly on VMS because it's missing crypto/objects/obj_dat.h. This
means that the VMS compilation scripts (actually, crypto/crypto-lib.com)
will finally require Perl, something I've been avoiding since Perl
isn't that common, unless I fix another script to mimic what
obj_dat.pl does.
Another thing struck me: obj_dat.h will not vary very much, if at all,
between platforms or anything. This should mean that it could as well
be present in the distribution. I little like the dependencies in the
makefiles. That would require inserting a line somewhere in the
actions of the dist target in Makefile.org, or making that target
dependent on crypto/objects/obj_dat.h, with the obvious actions to
build it.
Anyhow, those are the issues and thoughts in my mind right now. The
lazy part of me would of course like obj_dat.h to be part of the
distribution, but I will do the necessary change in the appropriate
VMS scripts if needed.
Comments?
