Got a crash running the following program using Crypt::SSLeay: use LWP::Simple ; print get "https://castor.e-lingo.com:4433" ; I am running Windows 2000 (x86), ActiveState Perl 5.6.0, Crypt::SSLeay 0.17 with openssl 0.9.5a. SSLeay compiled using Microsoft compiler 12.00.8168 (MSC 6.0) (no cygnus tools) The problem occurs in the following code (from SSLeay.xs): SV* subject_name(cert) ... RETVAL = newSVpv(str, 0); free(str); /* crash here */ ... SV* issuer_name(cert) ... RETVAL = newSVpv(str, 0); free(str); /* crash here */ ... The problem goes away if the free(str) statements are commented out. The problem does not occur under Unix (FreeBSD). --chris -- christopher hogan e: [EMAIL PROTECTED] software engineer v: (650) 212-8556 e-lingo corporation f: (650) 212-8501 "translating the internet" i: http://www.e-lingo.com/ ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
