Hi Warren,
I've been too lazy when I've said it is just about the number of
parameters of mysql_ssl_set() ("cipher" is not available with MySQL
3.23.X API). I've never used MySQL with SSL connections so far, but I
know that MySQL 3.23.x doesn't fully support SSL internally. Full SSL
support was introduced in 4.0.x (please correct me if I'm wrong).
MySQL 3.23.5x can be installed with or without SSL support on various
operating systems and I this would require more autotools hacking for
mysql++ to identify MySQL version and provide SSL support or not for
mysql++ (add -DHAVE_OPENSSL for MySQL 3.x). Since I'm not good at
autotools stuff, I've choosed to make the patch the way it is and it
served for my propose. So, I'm reading a good automake/autoconf book
meanwhile :) My initial plan was to provide a patch as you are asking,
but it didn't worked for me. I will let you know if I can do something
about this. Thanks!
Regards,
Ovidiu
