AVAILABLE PATCHES
NEEDS PATCH
- o broken demos
o salzr@certco.com (Rich Salz): Bug in X509_name_print
<29E0A6D39ABED111A36000A0C99609CA2C2BA4@macertco-srv1.ma.certco.com>
- o [ Compilation warnings: ctype-related int vs. char ]
- => now casts (unsigned char), maybe those arrays should have
- members of that type rather than plain char (i.e.
- unsigned char *p; ....; if (isspace(*p)) ...; where it's now
- char *p; ....; if (isspace((unsigned char)*p)) ...;)
o $(PERL) in */Makefile.ssl
o "Sign the certificate?" - "n" creates empty certificate file
- o dubious declaration of crypt() in des.h
OPEN ISSUES
WISHES
- o Mats Nilsson <mats.nilsson@xware.se>:
- "Add reference counting to all substructures of X509 etc. For instance,
- X509_NAME lacks a reference counter, while EVP_PKEY has one. I'm
- making COM-wrappers for selected parts of SSLeay for a project of ours,
- and has found this inconsistency in copy semantics annoying."
