I don't know. As long as it is not defined, applications using it in its old form will break already during compilation. That's a good thing to make sure it doesn't stay unnoted :-) > > #if OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER < 0x00907000L > > #define NID_X500UniqueIdentifier NID_UniqueIdentifier > > #endif > Should this be removed after #define above will be enable? No. This section says: On older versions, NID_X500UniqueIdentifier is not available, use its old form instead. I would like to see more discussions about this issue. I have looked around some more and still find referrals like http://www.alvestrand.no/objectid/2.5.4.45.html with the UniqueIdentifier term instead of X500UniqueIdentifier. I have set [EMAIL PROTECTED], who supplied this entry, and [EMAIL PROTECTED], the maintainer of this very practical database, on the CC list. Hopefully they don't feel bothered but help in discussing this item...
