original idea of "handle" was that it represented a functional reference
to an ENGINE (rather than just a pointer), but on reflection I think
this now looks a little more readable.
than (RSA_METHOD *) required a couple of functions to change shape. I
didn't really pick the best shape to change RSA_set_method into though. :-)
There's nothing really appropriate to return from RSA_set_method; the
temptation to return an "old handle" fails when you consider that the
caller might ignore the return value and so botch up the reference
counting, this wasn't an issue before because there was no reference
counting.
patches that Geoff had in a patch file in his play directory.
NOTE for openssl-cvs: THIS IS A CVS BRANCH (BRANCH_engine). IT IS
NOT FOR THE FAINTHEARTED TO PLAY WITH. The code works as it is, but
it's not at all sure it ends up in the OpenSSL distributio in this
form, so do not get dependent on it!
Those rsyncing the repository are considered warned!
initialised, at which point an appropriate default was chosen. This meant a
call to RSA_get_default_method might have returned FALSE.
This change fixes that; now any called to RSA_new(), RSA_new_method(NULL), or
RSA_get_default_method() will ensure that a default is chosen if it wasn't
already.
1. The already released version was 0.9.1c and not 0.9.1b
2. The next release should be 0.9.2 and not 0.9.1d, because
first the changes are already too large, second we should avoid any more
0.9.1x confusions and third, the Apache version semantics of
VERSION.REVISION.PATCHLEVEL for the version string is reasonable (and here
.2 is already just a patchlevel and not major change).
