All I recalled due to your original message was that I had gone through all the OpenSSL code a long time ago (including samples, demos, etc.) to migrate from the old to the new API, while that action included the introduction of that RSA_F4() 'constant' over here. (The vanilla code exhibits a similar bit of code in a few places but there the F4 bignum is mallocated every time around, which is not necessary.) The 'install_html_docs' target should exist in your Makefile (and Makefile.org) in the openssl root dir. Note however that working sed, perl and pod2html tools /must/ be present and installed on your system (that last one (pod2html) might be missing or not in your PATH) Hardly surprising that people are using the old API.

I see I have an edited generated_key pod as well, which points out that _ex is there since 0.9.8c-something. Time to file the buggers in rt@ I guess. (Now all I need is to finish my 100%-unix diff submission environment so Steve et al can apply my diffs without hickups, contrary to the last couple of times.) -- Met vriendelijke groeten / Best regards, Ger Hobbelt -------------------------------------------------- web: http://www.hobbelt.com/ http://www.hebbut.net/ mail: g...@hobbelt.com mobile: +31-6-11 120 978 --------------------------------------------------
