| 2 | NOTES FOR THE OPENVMS PLATFORM | |
| 3 | ============================== | |
| 4 | ||
| 5 | Requirement details | |
| 6 | ------------------- | |
| 7 | ||

8 | In addition to the requirements and instructions listed in INSTALL, |
| 9 | this are required as well: | |
| 2acd8ec7 RL |
10 | |
| 11 | * At least ODS-5 disk organization for source and build. | |
| 12 | Installation can be done on any existing disk organization. | |
| 13 | ||

| 15 | About ANSI C compiler | |
| 16 | --------------------- | |
| 17 | ||
| 7793e174 RL |
18 | An ANSI C compiled is needed among other things. This means that |
| 19 | VAX C is not and will not be supported. | |

| 368058d0 RL |
21 | We have only tested with DEC C (a.k.a HP VMS C / VSI C) and require |
| 22 | version 7.1 or later. Compiling with a different ANSI C compiler may | |
| 23 | require some work. | |
| 7793e174 RL |
24 | |
| 25 | Please avoid using C RTL feature logical names DECC$* when building | |
| 26 | and testing OpenSSL. Most of all, they can be disruptive when | |
| 27 | running the tests, as they affect the Perl interpreter. | |

30 | About MMS and DCL |
| 31 | ----------------- | |
| 32 | ||
| 33 | MMS has certain limitations when it comes to line length, and DCL has | |
| 34 | certain limitations when it comes to total command length. We do | |
| 35 | what we can to mitigate, but there is the possibility that it's not | |
| 36 | enough. Should you run into issues, a very simple solution is to set | |
| 37 | yourself up a few logical names for the directory trees you're going | |
| 38 | to use. | |

41 | Checking the distribution |
| 42 | ------------------------- | |
| 43 | ||
| 44 | There have been reports of places where the distribution didn't quite | |
| 45 | get through, for example if you've copied the tree from a NFS-mounted | |
| 46 | Unix mount point. | |
| 47 | ||
| 48 | The easiest way to check if everything got through as it should is to | |
| 49 | check for one of the following files: | |
| 50 | ||
| 51 | [.crypto]opensslconf^.h.in | |
| 52 | ||
| 53 | The best way to get a correct distribution is to download the gzipped | |
| 54 | tar file from ftp://ftp.openssl.org/source/, use GZIP -d to uncompress | |
| 55 | it and VMSTAR to unpack the resulting tar file. | |
| 56 | ||
| 57 | Gzip and VMSTAR are available here: | |
