M2Crypto Homepage and Documentation
If you search “M2Crypto” with Google, the first hit will be the old homepage, which was obsoleted by the new page something like three years ago. It would probably help if people blogged about M2Crypto and linked to the new M2Crypto homepage.
I just read a comment from someone who complained about not finding any documentation for M2Crypto. I wonder if they tried to find it from the old homepage. I can’t say there’s much in the new homepage, but there is something: small HOWTOS, build instructions, over 200 unit tests and demos. Ok, maybe some people don’t regard the last two as documentation, but they are still pretty good ways of learning to use the API. The homepage also shows how you can generate the API documentation yourself. But to help people who don’t want to do that, I just generated it myself and put the M2Crypto generated API documentation online.
But I still think that the best documentation for anyone working with OpenSSL or any OpenSSL wrapper is Network Security with OpenSSL by John Viega, Matt Messier and Pravir Chandra; ISBN 059600270X.
