Is it really unreasonable? In
I think it is reasonable. Unless it would break some non-gcc build (i.e Visual Studio, Borland or some netware one). > other words I'd simply scrap "$IsMK1MF=1 if ($target eq "mingw" && $^O > ne "cygwin" && !is_msys());" line for good. A. Now, some further info. Next problem I've encountered building current CVS state of 0.9.9 was error in e_os.h "ws2tcpip.h is not compatible with winsock.h". It was fixed by removal of #include <ws2tcpip.h> from mentioned file. I'm not an expert on Win32 tcpip history and cannot tell whether it is problem of my mingw32 runtime headers or something also. Next problem was "dereferencing pointer to incomplete type" in line 728 of b_sock.c. It seems that symbol AF_INET6 is somehow declared (may be cross-compiler picks some native header), but appropriate structures are not defined. I've temporary solved this problem by replacing #if defined(OPENSSL_SYS_BEOS_BONE) /* BONE's IP6 support is incomplete */ #undef AF_INET6 #endif with #if defined(OPENSSL_SYS_BEOS_BONE) || defined(_WIN32) /* BONE's IP6 support is incomplete */ #undef AF_INET6 #endif in line 90 of crypto/bio/b_sock.c. After this static build succeeds. If I attempt to do ./Configure mingw shared and then make CC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc RANLIB=i586-mingw32msvc-ranlib\ NM=i586-mingw32msvc-nm (i've patched Makefile.shared to support NM overriding), I get following results: shared library cryptoeay-0.9.8.dll (why not 0.9.9?) is created, but it exports no symbols. So build of ssleay-0.9.8.dll fails due to multiple unresolved symbols. This is why proper .def file is needed. I've not tried ./Configure mingw shared zlib, because I don't have win32 zlib develpment files on machine where I'm doing my experiments. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
