Ciao. I haven't had a chance to compile the exact OpenSSL version using g++ compiler as stated by the user/poster.
If this user is using a modified or altered version of OpenSSL provided source code, is there support available? Don't get me wrong, I don't mind helping out but ..... I'll try to compile OpenSSL source code this evening and I'll post my findings here. Regards.

When it is used from our > product code and while compiling using C++ compiler, the issue is seen. As I wrote previously, the error you posted was caused by the fact that you are compiling Ansi C (a.k.a ISO/IEC 9899:1990, a.k.a C90) source code using a C++ compiler. While C permits a cast from ‘void *’ to ‘anytype *’, C++ doesn’t allow it without an explicit cast. Only the *public* OpenSSL headers are guaranteed to be includable by a C++ compiler (they contain the necessary ` extern “C” ` blocks, etc.), not the internal headers. Including *internal* headers is neither supported nor possible with a C++ compiler. And as Matt Caswell already told you, there are no compatibility guarantees for those headers. Matthias
