You rock! I spent a frustrating afternoon trying to figure out how to build that, and I came across this 5 minutes before I was going to go home in disgust. Now I get to go home victorious! Thanks so much! I just wish I'd seen it earlier today!

This thing misses one bit, arguably the most important one:

Download and verify security signatures.

For something crypto-related, this is an absolute must.

This was neat!

Many nice people here hinted on better build-scripts they've made... could one of you please spare a link?

I need: 1. shared (dylib) and static, OS-X only (actually 64bit is enough for me). I need to build relocatable dylibs (OS-X Frameworks) linked against openssl libs (libcrypto and libssl)

This is brilliant

Thanks!

@tmiz, great work buddy!!!
@lyubod, I am currently writing a script that compiles Openssl on standard Linux, ARM Linux, OS X. I would be very much interested in your version of this script. It will save me a lot of time. Thanks in advance.

You may want to modify your curl request to curl -O -L http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-$OPENSSL_VERSION.tar.gz. I had to struggle with a redirect -L automatically follows...

FYI as of the time of writing this the current openssl version is openssl-1.0.2o

Although very old, I wonder if this could still work for Mac OS X 10.4 on PPC with openssl 1.1.1

change http with https :) curl -O https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-$OPENSSL_VERSION.tar.gz

Very useful!

I tried compiling this library for deploying applications built with Delphi for OSX64, but nothing worked. But this script runs perfectly!

Total respect!!
