+ INSTALLATION ON THE WIN32 PLATFORM
+ ----------------------------------
+
+ [Instructions for building for Windows CE can be found in INSTALL.WCE]
+ [Instructions for building for Win64 can be found in INSTALL.W64]
+
+ Here are a few comments about building OpenSSL for Win32 environments,
+ such as Windows NT and Windows 9x. It should be noted though that
+ Windows 9x are not ordinarily tested. Its mention merely means that we
+ attempt to maintain certain programming discipline and pay attention
+ to backward compatibility issues, in other words it's kind of expected
+ to work on Windows 9x, but no regression tests are actually performed.
+
+ On additional note newer OpenSSL versions are compiled and linked with
+ Winsock 2. This means that minimum OS requirement was elevated to NT 4
+ and Windows 98 [there is Winsock 2 update for Windows 95 though].
+
+ - you need Perl for Win32.  Unless you will build on Cygwin, you will need
+   ActiveState Perl, available from http://www.activestate.com/ActivePerl.
+
+ - one of the following C compilers:
+
+  * Visual C++
+  * Borland C
+  * GNU C (Cygwin or MinGW)
+
+- Netwide Assembler, a.k.a. NASM, available from http://nasm.sourceforge.net/
+  is required if you intend to utilize assembler modules. Note that NASM
+  is now the only supported assembler.
+
+ If you are compiling from a tarball or a Git snapshot then the Win32 files
+ may well be not up to date. This may mean that some "tweaking" is required to
+ get it all to work. See the trouble shooting section later on for if (when?)
+ it goes wrong.
+
+ Visual C++
+ ----------
+
+ If you want to compile in the assembly language routines with Visual
+ C++, then you will need already mentioned Netwide Assembler binary,
+ nasmw.exe or nasm.exe, to be available on your %PATH%.
+
+ Firstly you should run Configure with platform VC-WIN32:
+
+ > perl Configure VC-WIN32 --prefix=c:\some\openssl\dir
+
+ Where the prefix argument specifies where OpenSSL will be installed to.
+
+ Next you need to build the Makefiles and optionally the assembly
+ language files:
+
+ - If you are using NASM then run:
+
+   > ms\do_nasm
+
+ - If you don't want to use the assembly language files at all then run:
+
+   > perl Configure VC-WIN32 no-asm --prefix=c:/some/openssl/dir
+   > ms\do_ms
+
+ If you get errors about things not having numbers assigned then check the
+ troubleshooting section: you probably won't be able to compile it as it
+ stands.
+
+ Then from the VC++ environment at a prompt do:
+
+ > nmake -f ms\ntdll.mak
+
+ If all is well it should compile and you will have some DLLs and
+ executables in out32dll. If you want to try the tests then do:
+ 
+ > nmake -f ms\ntdll.mak test
+
+
+ To install OpenSSL to the specified location do:
+
+ > nmake -f ms\ntdll.mak install
+
+ Tweaks:
+
+ There are various changes you can make to the Win32 compile
+ environment. By default the library is not compiled with debugging
+ symbols. If you use the platform debug-VC-WIN32 instead of VC-WIN32
+ then debugging symbols will be compiled in.
+
+ By default in 1.0.0 OpenSSL will compile builtin ENGINES into the
+ separate shared librariesy. If you specify the "enable-static-engine"
+ option on the command line to Configure the shared library build
+ (ms\ntdll.mak) will compile the engines into libeay32.dll instead.
+
+ The default Win32 environment is to leave out any Windows NT specific
+ features.
+
+ If you want to enable the NT specific features of OpenSSL (currently
+ only the logging BIO) follow the instructions above but call the batch
+ file do_nt.bat instead of do_ms.bat.
+
+ You can also build a static version of the library using the Makefile
+ ms\nt.mak
+
+
+ Borland C++ builder 5
+ ---------------------
+
+ * Configure for building with Borland Builder:
+   > perl Configure BC-32
+
+ * Create the appropriate makefile
+   > ms\do_nasm
+
+ * Build
+   > make -f ms\bcb.mak
+
+ Borland C++ builder 3 and 4
+ ---------------------------
+
+ * Setup PATH. First must be GNU make then bcb4/bin 
+
+ * Run ms\bcb4.bat
+
+ * Run make:
+   > make -f bcb.mak
+
+ GNU C (Cygwin)
+ --------------
+
+ Cygwin implements a Posix/Unix runtime system (cygwin1.dll) on top of
+ Win32 subsystem and provides a bash shell and GNU tools environment.
+ Consequently, a make of OpenSSL with Cygwin is virtually identical to
+ Unix procedure. It is also possible to create Win32 binaries that only
+ use the Microsoft C runtime system (msvcrt.dll or crtdll.dll) using
+ MinGW. MinGW can be used in the Cygwin development environment or in a
+ standalone setup as described in the following section.
+
+ To build OpenSSL using Cygwin:
+
+ * Install Cygwin (see http://cygwin.com/)
+
+ * Install Perl and ensure it is in the path. Both Cygwin perl
+   (5.6.1-2 or newer) and ActivePerl work.
+
+ * Run the Cygwin bash shell
+
+ * $ tar zxvf openssl-x.x.x.tar.gz
+   $ cd openssl-x.x.x
+
+   To build the Cygwin version of OpenSSL:
+
+   $ ./config
+   [...]
+   $ make
+   [...]
+   $ make test
+   $ make install
+
+   This will create a default install in /usr/local/ssl.
+
+   To build the MinGW version (native Windows) in Cygwin:
+
+   $ ./Configure mingw
+   [...]
+   $ make
+   [...]
+   $ make test
+   $ make install
+
+ Cygwin Notes:
+
+ "make test" and normal file operations may fail in directories
+ mounted as text (i.e. mount -t c:\somewhere /home) due to Cygwin
+ stripping of carriage returns. To avoid this ensure that a binary
+ mount is used, e.g. mount -b c:\somewhere /home.
+
+ "bc" is not provided in older Cygwin distribution.  This causes a
+ non-fatal error in "make test" but is otherwise harmless.  If
+ desired and needed, GNU bc can be built with Cygwin without change.
+
+ GNU C (MinGW/MSYS)
+ -------------
+
+ * Compiler and shell environment installation:
+
+   MinGW and MSYS are available from http://www.mingw.org/, both are
+   required. Run the installers and do whatever magic they say it takes
+   to start MSYS bash shell with GNU tools on its PATH.
+
+   N.B. Since source tar-ball can contain symbolic links, it's essential
+   that you use accompanying MSYS tar to unpack the source. It will
+   either handle them in one way or another or fail to extract them,
+   which does the trick too. Latter means that you may safely ignore all
+   "cannot create symlink" messages, as they will be "re-created" at
+   configure stage by copying corresponding files. Alternative programs
+   were observed to create empty files instead, which results in build
+   failure.
+
+ * Compile OpenSSL:
+
+   $ ./config
+   [...]
+   $ make
+   [...]
+   $ make test
+
+   This will create the library and binaries in root source directory
+   and openssl.exe application in apps directory.
+
+   It is also possible to cross-compile it on Linux by configuring
+   with './Configure --cross-compile-prefix=i386-mingw32- mingw ...'.
+   'make test' is naturally not applicable then.
+
+   libcrypto.a and libssl.a are the static libraries. To use the DLLs,
+   link with libeay32.a and libssl32.a instead.
+
+   See troubleshooting if you get error messages about functions not
+   having a number assigned.
+
+ Installation
+ ------------
+
+ If you used the Cygwin procedure above, you have already installed and
+ can skip this section.  For all other procedures, there's currently no real
+ installation procedure for Win32.  There are, however, some suggestions:
+
+    - do nothing.  The include files are found in the inc32/ subdirectory,
+      all binaries are found in out32dll/ or out32/ depending if you built
+      dynamic or static libraries.
+
+    - do as is written in INSTALL.Win32 that comes with modssl:
+
+	$ md c:\openssl 
+	$ md c:\openssl\bin
+	$ md c:\openssl\lib
+	$ md c:\openssl\include
+	$ md c:\openssl\include\openssl
+	$ copy /b inc32\openssl\*       c:\openssl\include\openssl
+	$ copy /b out32dll\ssleay32.lib c:\openssl\lib
+	$ copy /b out32dll\libeay32.lib c:\openssl\lib
+	$ copy /b out32dll\ssleay32.dll c:\openssl\bin
+	$ copy /b out32dll\libeay32.dll c:\openssl\bin
+	$ copy /b out32dll\openssl.exe  c:\openssl\bin
+
+      Of course, you can choose another device than c:.  C: is used here
+      because that's usually the first (and often only) harddisk device.
+      Note: in the modssl INSTALL.Win32, p: is used rather than c:.
+
+
+ Troubleshooting
+ ---------------
+
+ Since the Win32 build is only occasionally tested it may not always compile
+ cleanly.  If you get an error about functions not having numbers assigned
+ when you run ms\do_ms then this means the Win32 ordinal files are not up to
+ date. You can do:
+
+ > perl util\mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
+
+ then ms\do_XXX should not give a warning any more. However the numbers that
+ get assigned by this technique may not match those that eventually get
+ assigned in the Git tree: so anything linked against this version of the
+ library may need to be recompiled.
+
+ If you get errors about unresolved symbols there are several possible
+ causes.
+
+ If this happens when the DLL is being linked and you have disabled some
+ ciphers then it is possible the DEF file generator hasn't removed all
+ the disabled symbols: the easiest solution is to edit the DEF files manually
+ to delete them. The DEF files are ms\libeay32.def ms\ssleay32.def.
+
+ Another cause is if you missed or ignored the errors about missing numbers
+ mentioned above.
+
+ If you get warnings in the code then the compilation will halt.
+
+ The default Makefile for Win32 halts whenever any warnings occur. Since VC++
+ has its own ideas about warnings which don't always match up to other
+ environments this can happen. The best fix is to edit the file with the
+ warning in and fix it. Alternatively you can turn off the halt on warnings by
+ editing the CFLAG line in the Makefile and deleting the /WX option.
+
+ You might get compilation errors. Again you will have to fix these or report
+ them.
+
+ One final comment about compiling applications linked to the OpenSSL library.
+ If you don't use the multithreaded DLL runtime library (/MD option) your
+ program will almost certainly crash because malloc gets confused -- the
+ OpenSSL DLLs are statically linked to one version, the application must
+ not use a different one.  You might be able to work around such problems
+ by adding CRYPTO_malloc_init() to your program before any calls to the
+ OpenSSL libraries: This tells the OpenSSL libraries to use the same
+ malloc(), free() and realloc() as the application.  However there are many
+ standard library functions used by OpenSSL that call malloc() internally
+ (e.g. fopen()), and OpenSSL cannot change these; so in general you cannot
+ rely on CRYPTO_malloc_init() solving your problem, and you should
+ consistently use the multithreaded library.
+
+ Linking your application
+ ------------------------
+
+ If you link with static OpenSSL libraries [those built with ms/nt.mak],
+ then you're expected to additionally link your application with
+ WS2_32.LIB, ADVAPI32.LIB, GDI32.LIB and USER32.LIB. Those developing
+ non-interactive service applications might feel concerned about linking
+ with the latter two, as they are justly associated with interactive
+ desktop, which is not available to service processes. The toolkit is
+ designed to detect in which context it's currently executed, GUI,
+ console app or service, and act accordingly, namely whether or not to
+ actually make GUI calls. Additionally those who wish to
+ /DELAYLOAD:GDI32.DLL and /DELAYLOAD:USER32.DLL and actually keep them
+ off service process should consider implementing and exporting from
+ .exe image in question own _OPENSSL_isservice not relying on USER32.DLL.
+ E.g., on Windows Vista and later you could:
+
+	__declspec(dllexport) __cdecl BOOL _OPENSSL_isservice(void)
+	{   DWORD sess;
+	    if (ProcessIdToSessionId(GetCurrentProcessId(),&sess))
+	        return sess==0;
+	    return FALSE;
+	}
+
+ If you link with OpenSSL .DLLs, then you're expected to include into
+ your application code small "shim" snippet, which provides glue between
+ OpenSSL BIO layer and your compiler run-time. Look up OPENSSL_Applink
+ reference page for further details.
