Changes since p5-Net-SSLeay-1.13 :
- added code to Makefile.PL to verify that the same C compiler
is used for both perl and openssl
- added code to Makefile.PL to support aCC on HPUX. Detective
work contributed by Marko Asplund.
- added peer certificate support to hilevel API, inspired
by mock@@_obscurity.org
- added `use bytes' from Marcus Taylor <marcus@@semantico_.com>
This avoids unicode/utf8 (as may appear in some XML docs)
from fooling the length comuptations.
- eliminated initializing random numbers using /etc/passwd per
comments by Matt Messier <matt@@securesw_.com>
- tested against openssl-0.9.6c (not in pkg now :-)
1.09 20.8.2001,
- fixed Makefile.PL (computation of bin_path) and test.pl ($perl
use before defined) per Gordon Lack <gml4410@ggr.co.uk>
11.9.2001,
- Patch by Jeremy Mates <jmates@mbt.washington.edu> to make Handle.pm
more acceptable for older perls
25.9.2001,
- systematically implemented many of the newer functions of
openssl API (per popular request and for completeness)
The automatic truncation in gensolpkg doesn't work for packages which
have the same package name for the first 5-6 chars.
e.g. amanda-server and amanda-client would be named amanda and amanda.
Now, we add a SVR4_PKGNAME and use amacl for amanda-client and amase for
amanda-server.
All svr4 packages also have a vendor tag, so we have to reserve some chars
for this tag, which is normaly 3 or 4 chars. Thats why we can only use 6
or 5 chars for SVR4_PKGNAME. I used 5 for all the packages, to give the
vendor tag enough room.
All p5-* packages and a few other packages have now a SVR4_PKGNAME.
Net::SSLeay.pm is a perl module that allows you to call Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) functions of the SSLeay library directly from your perl
scripts. It is useful if you want to program robots that access secure web
servers or if you want to build your own applications over SSL encrypted
tunnels.
