RE: Memory leak while using OpenSSL library
Hi, Thanks David for correcting me and also solving my doubt related to -DPURIFY option. David Schwartz wrote: Now at last, there is only 48 bytes leak of (in 0.9.8k and 1.0.0 beta1 its 36 bytes) of SSL_library_init(), is of not a big issue but I will have look into openssl to just as minimize as I can. (Because restarting the application many times will slowly eat up the memory.. and will require to restart the system) Huh? What memory will it eat up exactly? When an application terminates, it can no longer map any memory. Also One remaining thing is regarding invalid read/invalid write messages, Does compiling OpenSSL with -DPURIFY will cause any performance/stability issue? OR is it necessary for good working of the application.? OR is it just for the faint of the heart? Compiling with -DPURIFY is only needed to suppress bogus invalid read/write messages. If those messages bother you and you want them suppressed, compile with -DPURIFY. If you don't care and want maximum security, don't specify -DPURIFY.

X509.h errors
Hy, I'm having some troubles with OpenSSL's older versions, so i decided to rebuild the new one (1.0.0) on WIN32. I hoped this bug of some sort will be fixed, because it was there for some time now, but it still gives the same errors. I won't paste the errors (around 14), because it was posted before, I'm just hoping for a solution to it. Thank You.
