Back to the standard "app" module.
This return to "app" instead of "bitmask_android" is due to this reading: https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio-build.html#projectStructure
I'll have to tweak the final apk name in build.gradle.

These are a set of modules which can perform +various configuration functions. + +Currently the routines should be called at most once when an application +starts up: that is before it starts any threads. + +The routines read a configuration file set up like this: + +----- +#default section +openssl_conf=init_section + +[init_section] + +module1=value1 +#Second instance of module1 +module1.1=valueX +module2=value2 +module3=dso_literal +module4=dso_section + +[dso_section] + +path=/some/path/to/some/dso.so +other_stuff=other_value +---- + +When this file is loaded a configuration module with the specified string +(module* in the above example) is looked up and its init function called as: + +int conf_init_func(CONF_IMODULE *md, CONF *cnf); + +The function can then take whatever action is appropriate, for example further +lookups based on the value. Multiple instances of the same config module can be +loaded. + +When the application closes down the modules are cleaned up by calling an +optional finish function: + +void conf_finish_func(CONF_IMODULE *md); + +The finish functions are called in reverse order: that is the last module +loaded is the first one cleaned up. + +If no module exists with a given name then an attempt is made to load a DSO +with the supplied name. This might mean that "module3" attempts to load a DSO +called libmodule3.so or module3.dll for example. An explicit DSO name can be +given by including a separate section as in the module4 example above. + +The DSO is expected to at least contain an initialization function: + +int OPENSSL_init(CONF_IMODULE *md, CONF *cnf); + +and may also include a finish function: + +void OPENSSL_finish(CONF_IMODULE *md); + +Static modules can also be added using, + +int CONF_module_add(char *name, dso_mod_init_func *ifunc, dso_mod_finish_func +*ffunc); + +where "name" is the name in the configuration file this function corresponds +to. + +A set of builtin modules (currently only an ASN1 non functional test module) +can be added by calling OPENSSL_load_builtin_modules(). + +The function OPENSSL_config() is intended as a simple configuration function +that any application can call to perform various default configuration tasks. +It uses the file openssl.cnf in the usual locations. + + |
