Hi, Does the dynamic-engine is supposed to be used to load the engines that use the standard implementation of bind_engine() (implemented with IMPLEMENT_DYNAMIC_BIND_FN() macro), please?
As far as I see, the engines from 'openssl-0.9.7a' use this standard implementation of bind_engine(). This function fails if 'ex_data' is already initialized (due to the call CRYPTO_set_ex_data_implementation()). It also fails if the 'err_fns' is already initialized (due to ERR_set_implementation()). At the same time, in the procedure dynamic_load() (crypto/engine/eng_dyn.c) the 'ex_data' and 'err_fns' are initialized just before calling ctx->bind_engine(). Similar question about the call CRYPTO_set_mem_functions() that is present in the standard bind_engine() procedure. It assumes that the engine's bind_engine() should be called before any call to CRYPTO_malloc(). Is it possible, for examlpe, when using binary 'openssl ' with command line argument '-engine'? Thank you in advance, Victor. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
