-OpenSSL - Port To The Macintosh OS 9 or Earlier
-===============================================
-
-Thanks to Roy Wood <roy@centricsystems.ca> initial support for Mac OS (pre
-X) is now provided. "Initial" means that unlike other platforms where you
-get an SDK and a "swiss army" openssl application, on Macintosh you only
-get one sample application which fetches a page over HTTPS(*) and dumps it
-in a window. We don't even build the test applications so that we can't
-guarantee that all algorithms are operational.
-
-Required software:
-
-- StuffIt Expander 5.5 or later, alternatively MacGzip and SUNtar;
-- Scriptable Finder;
-- CodeWarrior Pro 5;
-
-Installation procedure:
-
-- fetch the source at ftp://ftp.openssl.org/ (well, you probably already
- did, huh?)
-- unpack the .tar.gz file:
- - if you have StuffIt Expander then just drag it over it;
- - otherwise uncompress it with MacGzip and then unpack with SUNtar;
-- locate MacOS folder in OpenSSL source tree and open it;
-- unbinhex mklinks.as.hqx and OpenSSL.mcp.hqx if present (**), do it
- "in-place", i.e. unpacked files should end-up in the very same folder;
-- execute mklinks.as;
-- open OpenSSL.mcp(***) and build 'GetHTTPS PPC' target(****);
-- that's it for now;
-
-(*) URL is hardcoded into ./MacOS/GetHTTPS.src/GetHTTPS.cpp, lines 40
- to 42, change appropriately.
-(**) If you use SUNtar, then it might have already unbinhexed the files
- in question.
-(***) The project file was saved with CW Pro 5.3. If you have an earlier
- version and it refuses to open it, then download
- http://www.openssl.org/~appro/OpenSSL.mcp.xml and import it
- overwriting the original OpenSSL.mcp.
-(****) Other targets are works in progress. If you feel like giving 'em a
- shot, then you should know that OpenSSL* and Lib* targets are
- supposed to be built with the GUSI, MacOS library which mimics
- BSD sockets and some other POSIX APIs. The GUSI distribution is
- expected to be found in the same directory as the openssl source tree,
- i.e., in the parent directory to the one where this very file,
- namely INSTALL.MacOS, resides. For more information about GUSI, see
- http://www.iis.ee.ethz.ch/~neeri/macintosh/gusi-qa.html
-
-Finally some essential comments from our generous contributor:-)
-
-"I've gotten OpenSSL working on the Macintosh. It's probably a bit of a
-hack, but it works for what I'm doing. If you don't like the way I've done
-it, then feel free to change what I've done. I freely admit that I've done
-some less-than-ideal things in my port, and if you don't like the way I've
-done something, then feel free to change it-- I won't be offended!
-
-... I've tweaked "bss_sock.c" a little to call routines in a "MacSocket"
-library I wrote. My MacSocket library is a wrapper around OpenTransport,
-handling stuff like endpoint creation, reading, writing, etc. It is not
-designed as a high-performance package such as you'd use in a webserver,
-but is fine for lots of other applications. MacSocket also uses some other
-code libraries I've written to deal with string manipulations and error
-handling. Feel free to use these things in your own code, but give me
-credit and/or send me free stuff in appreciation! :-)
