Re: Linker errors when trying to build OpenSSL with MD2 and RC5 support
Did you read my previous response, where I listed the relevant Configure options? Be sure to expand included text, if you're using one of those braindead MUAs which hide it.
Re: Linker errors when trying to build OpenSSL with MD2 and RC5 support
Are there additional commands I have to pass to the Configure module if I want to build completely static libs? If so, what are they?

Again, please don't send questions about OpenSSL directly to me.

You need to configure with "no-shared" to disable the building of shared libraries. You may want no-dynamic-engine to have engines linked statically rather than loaded at runtime, no-zlib-dynamic for the same reason, and no-dso to disable loading of objects at runtime (though I'm not sure this has any effect on Windows builds). I don't think no-pic has any effect on Windows. I can't guess what options you actually might want because you STILL haven't told us what you're trying to do, and why. -- Michael Wojcik Distinguished Engineer, Micro Focus

Someone should probably look into that, but I don't have time to; and if no one else from the community picks it up, you'll probably have to wait until someone from the OpenSSL team has a chance to get to it. Does the DLL you built have the missing symbols? (Try "dumpbin /exports libssl-1_1-x64.dll | findstr EVP_md2" in the apps directory.) If so, the link is picking up the wrong import library. If not, something didn't get rebuilt correctly. > I do also want to ask what AFALG is and if I should enable it or not (and > what happens > if I do). I answered this in one of my other replies, sent Thursday 12 September. The afalg engine is only applicable to Linux. -- Michael Wojcik Distinguished Engineer, Micro Focus
Re: Linker errors when trying to build OpenSSL with MD2 and RC5 support
I'll just put both email addresses in for "To" then. I won't build with either one enabled if that's better, but I'd still like to know how to fix those linker errors. I do also want to ask what AFALG is and if I should enable it or not (and what happens if I do).

Reconfiguring changes the makefiles. You should always clean after a reconfigure. That's true for the vast majority of software projects that use a makefile-creating build process. > But I also want to know after that whether or not it's possible to enable all > of the > algorithms supported by OpenSSL version 1.1.1d. If it's not possible to enable an algorithm, it isn't actually "supported", is it? If Configure claims a particular algorithm can be enabled, then if it's not actually possible to build with it enabled and use it, I'd say that's a bug somewhere. I haven't tried to build with all possible Configure options enabled, though. -- Michael Wojcik Distinguished Engineer, Micro Focus
Re: Linker errors when trying to build OpenSSL with MD2 and RC5 support
I had a successful build before I configured it again to try to get MD2 and RC5, so I didn't see a reason to clean the build. I did clean it now after the failure happened. I'll try to fix these errors for now, so please help me with that. But I also want to know after that whether or not it's possible to enable all of the algorithms supported by OpenSSL version 1.1.1d.

If you're bored with your current set of problems and want a different set, sure. If you're hoping to make progress, I wouldn't recommend it. -- Michael Wojcik Distinguished Engineer, Micro Focus
