i, We were using OpenSSL in our product, but lately after testing on Vista, our application was was crashing (only in Vista) in SSL_Connect(). (It worked fine in XP)
After debugging through OpenSSL we found that within RAND_poll() it was crashing in a win32 api function snap(TH32CS_SNAPALL,0). With reference to the RAND_poll() issue described in http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg18900.html we came to know that RAND_poll() crash occurs especially during a multithreaded environment. Getting more info from an MSDN page http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682489.aspx we got to know that : TH32CS_SNAPALL copies process + thread information while TH32CS_SNAPPROCESS copies just the process information. So we tried changing from *snap(TH32CS_SNAPALL,0)* to *snap(TH32CS_SNAPPROCESS ,0)* And then it worked and did not crash. Can anyone confirm if these changes are good (safe)? Has anyone else faced such RAND_poll() related crash before ? Is there anyway I can bypass that RAND_poll() call (as described in the last paragraph of http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg18900.html). Thanks in advance, Regards, Shobhit Gupta
