1. OpenSSL
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The above instruction builds OpenSSL library statically in the SoftEther binaries,
|
||||||
|
so that when you distribute the installer to others they will not need to install OpenSSL separately.
|
||||||
|
However, the downside is that the OpenSSL library cannot be updated without a rebuild and reinstallation of SoftEther.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It's also possible to build OpenSSL library dynamically so that you can update OpenSSL without rebuilding SoftEther.
|
||||||
|
To achieve that, you need to remove `openssl` from `vcpkg.json` and install OpenSSL directly.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Installing from a package manager such as [Scoop](https://scoop.sh/) would make the subsequent updates easily.
|
||||||
|
However, you should avoid using [Winget](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/package-manager/winget/)
|
||||||
|
for the time being because due to a bug it cannot detect the correct version of OpenSSL, causing endless updates.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you install from Scoop, make sure to add the OpenSSL folder to the system's `PATH`.
|
||||||
|
As Scoop already adds it to the user's `PATH`, just copy the same location into the system environment variable(s).
|
||||||
|
SoftEther Client Service starts from the System account and will fail to start if OpenSSL is not in the global `PATH`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Building should be straightforward. You can verify that the binaries are now linked against the locally installed OpenSSL
|
||||||
|
with tools like `ldd` (available from Git Bash):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
$ ldd /c/Program\ Files/SoftEther\ VPN\ Client\ Developer\ Edition/vpnclient.exe
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
libcrypto-3-x64.dll => /c/Scoop/apps/openssl/current/bin/libcrypto-3-x64.dll (0x7ff8beb70000)
|
||||||
|
libssl-3-x64.dll => /c/Scoop/apps/openssl/current/bin/libssl-3-x64.dll (0x7ff8beaa0000)
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
```
