Re: axis2/c depending on openSSL
Hi All,
I am still searching solutions for this issue.
Has anyone tried to dynamically load the openSSL dlls at runtime? I looked at the
part of code in axis2/c handling SSL, it basically calls a bunch of openSSL APIs
whose name start with SSL_, can we modify that part of code so that we use
LoadLibrary and get function pointer to the SSL_* functions that we use? This way
we don't have to have openSSL dlls in the class path for regular web services and
we only need them if we need SSL communication.
Thanks!
Frank

Hi Frank,

Hi Samisa,
If I don't ship the openSSL dlls but compile axis2/c with ssl enabled, then users have to manually download and add the dlls to their class path in order to use the web service client feature in my product, even if they do not need SSL at all, that would be inconvenient for them. My goal is to have one axis2/c package in my product to support web service client call without including the openSSL dlls and only those customers of mine that needs SSL will have to add the openSSL dlls to the classpath by themselves (without me having to re-compile the axis2/c for them). Is there a easy solution for this?
Thanks!

Re: axis2/c depending on openSSL
Posted by Raymond Zhou <ra...@yahoo.com>.
Hi Supun,
That means that I have to compile the axis2/c twice, one enabling SSL and another disabling it, and put two sets of axis2/c dlls in my application, that seems to me is
a bit awkward. Why can't we do dynamic loading openSSL dlls?
Thanks much!

How about the solution of having two senders and two axis2.xml files that I have mentioned above. It should work. Only problem is you need to specify the right client home for the ssl and non-ssl clients.
