"Initial" means that unlike other platforms where you -get an SDK and a "swiss army" openssl application, on Macintosh you only -get one sample application which fetches a page over HTTPS(*) and dumps it -in a window. We don't even build the test applications so that we can't -guarantee that all algorithms are operational. - -Required software: - -- StuffIt Expander 5.5 or later, alternatively MacGzip and SUNtar; -- Scriptable Finder; -- CodeWarrior Pro 5; - -Installation procedure: - -- fetch the source at ftp://ftp.openssl.org/ (well, you probably already - did, huh?) -- unpack the .tar.gz file: - - if you have StuffIt Expander then just drag it over it; - - otherwise uncompress it with MacGzip and then unpack with SUNtar; -- locate MacOS folder in OpenSSL source tree and open it; -- unbinhex mklinks.as.hqx and OpenSSL.mcp.hqx if present (**), do it - "in-place", i.e. unpacked files should end-up in the very same folder; -- execute mklinks.as; -- open OpenSSL.mcp(***) and build 'GetHTTPS PPC' target(****); -- that's it for now; - -(*) URL is hardcoded into ./MacOS/GetHTTPS.src/GetHTTPS.cpp, lines 40 - to 42, change appropriately. -(**) If you use SUNtar, then it might have already unbinhexed the files - in question. -(***) The project file was saved with CW Pro 5.3. If you have earlier - version and it refuses to open it, then download - http://www.openssl.org/~appro/OpenSSL.mcp.xml and import it - overwriting the original OpenSSL.mcp. -(****) Other targets are work in progress. If you feel like giving 'em a - shot, then you should know that OpenSSL* and Lib* targets are - supposed to be built with the GUSI, MacOS library which mimics - BSD sockets and some other POSIX APIs. The GUSI distribution is - expected to be found in the same directory as openssl source tree, - i.e. in the parent directory to the one where this very file, - namely INSTALL.MacOS. For more informations about GUSI, see - http://www.iis.ee.ethz.ch/~neeri/macintosh/gusi-qa.html - -Finally some essential comments from our generous contributor:-) - -"I've gotten OpenSSL working on the Macintosh. It's probably a bit of a -hack, but it works for what I'm doing. If you don't like the way I've done -it, then feel free to change what I've done. I freely admit that I've done -some less-than-ideal things in my port, and if you don't like the way I've -done something, then feel free to change it-- I won't be offended! - -... I've tweaked "bss_sock.c" a little to call routines in a "MacSocket" -library I wrote. My MacSocket library is a wrapper around OpenTransport, -handling stuff like endpoint creation, reading, writing, etc. It is not -designed as a high-performance package such as you'd use in a webserver, -but is fine for lots of other applications. MacSocket also uses some other -code libraries I've written to deal with string manipulations and error -handling. Feel free to use these things in your own code, but give me -credit and/or send me free stuff in appreciation! :-) - -... - -If you have any questions, feel free to email me as the following: - -roy@centricsystems.ca - --Roy Wood" - |
