\n\t\"OpenSSL\"<\/a>For our programmer (dev\/ops) friends, we\u00a0thought we'd share a little about building OpenSSL<\/a>. \u00a0There are a lot of examples online, but we kept finding they had little glitches, not quite complete, etc. \u00a0So here is how we built it:<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tYou need Perl installed. \u00a0ActiveState's free community Perl install is just fine.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tFirst, you need to decide on 32- or 64-bit. \u00a0Open a command prompt and change directory into the OpenSSL source folder, such as into D:\\OpenSSL\\openssl-1.0.1e.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tNOTE: Don't try to build debug and release, or 32-bit and 64-bit in the same folder<\/strong>. \u00a0I'd recommend having folders like:<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tD:\\OpenSSL\\openssl-1.0.1e_vs2012_32bit_rel<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tD:\\OpenSSL\\openssl-1.0.1e_vs2012_64bit_rel<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tNow, to build\u00a032-bit:<\/strong><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n

\n\t\tcall \"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\\VC\\vcvarsall.bat\" x86
\n\t\tperl Configure VC-WIN32 \u2013prefix={directory where you want your final output files}<\/span>
\n\t\tcall ms\\do_ms<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n\tFor 64-bit:<\/strong><\/span>
\n<\/h2>\n
\n

\n\t\tperl Configure VC-WIN64A \u2013prefix={directory where you want your final output files}
\n\t\tcall ms\\do_win64a<\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n\tYou're not done. \u00a0Now you need to decide if you want a static library or a DLL. \u00a0From this point on, the 32- or 64-bit decision doesn't matter.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tFor static library:<\/span><\/strong><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n

\n\t\tREM build OpenSSL
\n\t\tnmake -f ms\\nt.mak\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\tREM copy files to your output folder
\n\t\tnmake -f ms\\nt.mak install<\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\tREM run some tests to make sure your build works \u2014 look for \"passed all tests\"
\n\t\tnmake -f ms\\nt.mak test<\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n\t\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

\n\tFor a DLL:<\/strong><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n

\n\t\tREM build OpenSSL
\n\t\tnmake -f ms\\ntdll.mak\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\tREM copy files to your output folder
\n\t\tnmake -f ms\\ntdll.mak install<\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\tREM run some tests to make sure your build works \u2014 look for \"passed all tests\"
\n\t\tnmake -f ms\\ntdll.mak test<\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n\t\u00a0\n<\/div>\n
\n\tLook in your output folder and you'll find the openssl.exe, some link libraries, some DLLs if you wanted them and headers. \u00a0It's a beautiful thing \ud83d\ude09<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t\u00a0\n<\/div>\n
