Hello,
We are planning for upgrading the OpenSSL libraries which are used in
our application. Currently we are using OpenSSL version 0.9.8d and now
we are planning for a upgrade. What would you suggest us to upgrade to
0.9.8h or 0.9.8j? Will that be backward compatible? Will that supports
all the platforms which was supported by version 0.9.8d?
Please guide us regarding the same.
Thanks & Regards,

Unless you are doing "funky stuff" with OpenSSL (i.e. modifying struct
values directly), the 0.9.8 series is binary compatible with itself.
That is, there should be no problems with upgrading. In fact, you
should be staying with the absolute latest release at all times. A
number of critical security and bug fixes have taken place since 0.9.8d.
OpenSSL is a security product. It is imperative you stay up to date.
