Properties:
- 64 bit DLL
- VisualStudio 2015
Note: Visual C++ 6 does not build OpenSSL (long long syntax error)
- Git MinGW or MS WSL shell to convert tls.tcl into .h file
- OpenSSL statically linked to TCLTLS DLL.
Note: Dynamic linking also works but results in a DLL dependency on OPENSSL DLL's
-----------------------------
1) Build OpenSSL static libraries:
set SSLBUILD=\path\to\build\dir
set SSLINSTALL=\path\to\install\dir
set SSLCOMMON=\path\to\common\dir
(1a) Get OpenSSL
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/releases/download/OpenSSL_1_1_1t/openssl-1.1.1t.tar.gz
Unpack OpenSSL source distribution to %SSLBUILD%
(1b) Install Perl from https://strawberryperl.com/
https://strawberryperl.com/download/5.32.1.1/strawberry-perl-5.32.1.1-64bit.msi
Install to C:\Strawberry\perl
(1c) Install NASM Assembler from https://www.nasm.us/
https://www.nasm.us/pub/nasm/releasebuilds/2.16.01/win64/nasm-2.16.01-installer-x64.exe
Install to: C:\Program Files\NASM
(1d) Configure Open SSL 1.1.1
At Visual Studio x64 native prompt:
cd %SSLBUILD%
set Path=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\NASM;C:\Strawberry\perl\bin
perl ..\Configure VC-WIN64A no-shared no-filenames threads no-ssl2 no-ssl3 --api=1.1.0 --prefix="%SSLINSTALL%" --openssldir="%SSLCOMMON%" -DOPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED
# Not used options: no-asm no-zlib no-comp no-ui-console no-autoload-config
(1e) Configure Open SSL 3.0+
At Visual Studio x64 native prompt:
cd %SSLBUILD%
set Path=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\NASM;C:\Strawberry\perl\bin
perl ..\Configure VC-WIN64A no-shared no-filenames threads no-ssl2 no-ssl3 --prefix="%SSLINSTALL%" --openssldir="%SSLCOMMON%"
# Not used options: no-asm no-zlib no-comp no-ui-console no-autoload-config
(1f) Build OpenSSL
nmake
nmake test
nmake install
-----------------------------
2) Build TclTLS
set BUILDDIR=\path\to\build\tcltls
set TCLINSTALL=\path\to\tcl
set INSTALLDIR=%TCLINSTALL%\lib
set SSLINSTALL=\path\to\openssl\dir
2a) Unzip distribution to %BUILDDIR%
2b) Start Visual Studio shell
At Visual Studio x64 native prompt:
cd %BUILDDIR%\win
nmake -f makefile.vc TCLDIR=%TCLINSTALL% SSL_INSTALL_FOLDER=%SSLINSTALL%
nmake -f makefile.vc install TCLDIR=%TCLINSTALL% INSTALLDIR=%INSTALLDIR% SSL_INSTALL_FOLDER=%SSLINSTALL%
-----------------------------
3) Test
Start tclsh or wish
package require tls
package require http
http::register https 443 [list ::tls::socket -autoservername true]
set tok [http::data [http::geturl https://www.tcl-lang.org]]
::http::cleanup $tok
