Hi there,
My goal is to modify axis2/c so that I can load the openSSL dlls at
runtime, this means that I will need the dlls to exist in the class
path only if my web service calls require SSL communication. The
AXIS2/c mainly calls the openSSL apis starting with SSL_, like
SSL_read(...).
Has anyone done this? If yes, can you share the experience? I noticed
that the functions starting with SSL_ are not exported, is this a
problem?
Thanks much! Frank
To answer your questions:
1) Yes.
2) Painful.
3) SSL_...() calls are exported. See ssleay32.dll.
The macros are the hardest part - what appears to be a function in the
documentation ends up being a "convenient" macro in the header files.
But to do a full dynamic import requires a lot of GetProcAddress()
calls. Combine that with macros that do the equivalent of the original
macros but using GetProcAddress() and it creates a mess real fast.
Doable but painful.
