From 645749ef98612340b11c4bf2ba856e1fa469912b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Levitte Date: Wed, 20 Sep 2000 13:55:50 +0000 Subject: On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will write a separate record, which will be read separately by the programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing. The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line, not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've seen it once) several lines in one record. Voila, BIO_f_linebuffer() is born. Since we're so close to release time, I'm making this VMS-only for now, just to make sure no code is needlessly broken by this. After the release, this BIO method will be enabled on all other platforms as well. --- apps/ciphers.c | 8 +++++++- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'apps/ciphers.c') diff --git a/apps/ciphers.c b/apps/ciphers.c index 72b2009e18..b6e2f966d8 100644 --- a/apps/ciphers.c +++ b/apps/ciphers.c @@ -108,6 +108,12 @@ int MAIN(int argc, char **argv) if (bio_err == NULL) bio_err=BIO_new_fp(stderr,BIO_NOCLOSE); STDout=BIO_new_fp(stdout,BIO_NOCLOSE); +#ifdef VMS + { + BIO *tmpbio = BIO_new(BIO_f_linebuffer()); + STDout = BIO_push(tmpbio, STDout); + } +#endif argc--; argv++; @@ -195,7 +201,7 @@ err: end: if (ctx != NULL) SSL_CTX_free(ctx); if (ssl != NULL) SSL_free(ssl); - if (STDout != NULL) BIO_free(STDout); + if (STDout != NULL) BIO_free_all(STDout); EXIT(ret); } -- cgit v1.2.3
