Spoiler: VIDEO GUIDE
Spoiler: SETTING UP THE TOOLS
Extract The DW7 Folder and Paste into C:\
Win7UltSP1 is an unactivated, Stock Windows 7 Ultimate image with Service Pack 1.
You may use this ISO, Or your own Windows 7 ISO.
You may also create your own directories!
The tools are to help brand new people by proving concept.
Spoiler: PREPARING THE install.wim FILE
Open Your ISO and copy the files of the ISO into the DVD folder of DW7..
Press the Windows key on the keyboard,
Search for Powershell, Right Click, Run as Admin..
Paste this command to See, and Select, an Image "Source" Number:
Dism /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:"C:\DW7\DVD\sources\install.wim"
Paste this command to Extract the Selected Image "Source" Number:
Dism /export-image /SourceImageFile:"C:\DW7\DVD\sources\install.wim" /SourceIndex:4 /DestinationImageFile:"C:\DW7\ISO\install.wim" /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity
NOTE THAT YOU CAN:
Change the SourceIndex:Number If you don't want Ultimate.
Spoiler: OUT WITH THE OLD~! IN WITH THE NEW~!
Paste this command to copy and move the new install.wim and force replace the original install file:
copy-item "C:\DW7\ISO\install.wim" C:\DW7\DVD\sources -Recurse -Force
Paste this command to remove the "new" install.wim, that we moved above to the dvd sources folder:
remove-item "C:\DW7\ISO\install.wim"
Spoiler: PREPARING THE PATH ENVIRONMENT
At this point we need to make a copy of our DW7 Folder..
Paste The DW7 Folder to your Desktop.
Do not Cut or Drag and Drop!
This will leave you clean backups in C:\, just in case~!
This also forces us to make a change in the code...

We are missing one or so lines of code to rebuild the ISO.
I will correct that tomorrow, I'm Sleepy. D;
You can always use MSMGTK to do that part if you make it there before I add the code~!

Apparently I have to learn Ms build which I'm doing now so obviously this will take a little longer than I expected but it will help to progress our knowledge gained from trying to do something that should be so simple, turn a folder into an ISO, but continues to prove to us that nothing in computing should ever be took lightly and it took a lot of time and tools and engineering to create everything we do on them...

I am putting out a correction~! MSBUILD is NOT needed to turn a folder into an ISO. We can do that entirely in Powershell, using the built in ISE Tool. This will allow us to create a script that will burn the ISO for us. I will release a new thread on building a script in PowerShell ISE when I know what the heck I am doing. LOL
I did however, extract the MSBUILD tool from Visual Studio if anyone ever needs it and doesn't want to install VS

I am also dumping all my research on MSBUILD here in case I or anyone else want's to pickup on it later~!
REFS:
Spoiler: MSBUILD ENGINE
MSBuild - MSBuild
Learn about how the Microsoft Build Engine (MSBuild) platform provides a project file with an XML schema to control builds.
docs.microsoft.com
"The Microsoft Build Engine is a platform for building applications. This engine, which is also known as MSBuild, provides an XML schema for a project file that controls how the build platform processes and builds software"
"To run MSBuild at a command prompt, pass a project file to MSBuild.exe, together with the appropriate command-line options. Command-line options let you set properties, execute specific targets, and set other options that control the build process."
COMMAND LINE EXAMPLE:
MSBuild.exe MyProj.proj -property:Configuration=Debug
"MSBuild uses an XML-based project file format that's straightforward and extensible. The MSBuild project file format lets developers describe the items that are to be built, and also how they are to be built for different operating systems and configurations.
In addition, the project file format lets developers author reusable build rules that can be factored into separate files so that builds can be performed consistently across different projects in the product"
"Properties represent key/value pairs that can be used to configure builds. Properties are declared by creating an element that has the name of the property as a child of a PropertyGroup element"
XML EXAMPLE:
<PropertyGroup>
<BuildDir>Build</BuildDir>
</PropertyGroup>
"You can define a property conditionally by placing a Condition attribute in the element. The contents of conditional elements are ignored unless the condition evaluates to true"
XML EXAMPLE:
<Configuration Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == '' ">Debug</Configuration>
"Properties can be referenced throughout the project file by using the syntax $(<PropertyName>).
For example, you can reference the properties in the previous examples by using $(BuildDir) and $(Configuration)."
"Items are inputs into the build system and typically represent files. Items are grouped into item types based on user-defined item names. These item types can be used as parameters for tasks, which use the individual items to perform the steps of the build process. Items are declared in the project file by creating an element that has the name of the item type as a child of an ItemGroup element."
XML EXAMPLE:
<ItemGroup>
<Compile Include = "file1.cs"/>
<Compile Include = "file2.cs"/>
</ItemGroup>
"Item types can be referenced throughout the project file by using the syntax @(<ItemType>).
For example, the item type in the example would be referenced by using @(Compile).
In MSBuild, element and attribute names are case-sensitive. However, property, item, and metadata names are not."
"Tasks are units of executable code that MSBuild projects use to perform build operations.
For example, a task might compile input files or run an external tool."
"The execution logic of a task is written in managed code and mapped to MSBuild by using the UsingTask element.
You can write your own task by authoring a managed type that implements the ITask interface"
"MSBuild includes common tasks that you can modify to suit your requirements.
Examples are Copy, which copies files, MakeDir, which creates directories"
"A task is executed in an MSBuild project file by creating an element that has the name of the task as a child of a Target element.
Tasks typically accept parameters, which are passed as attributes of the element. Both MSBuild properties and items can be used as parameters."
XML EXAMPLE:
<Target Name="MakeBuildDirectory">
<MakeDir Directories="$(BuildDir)" />
</Target>
"Targets group tasks together in a particular order and expose sections of the project file as entry points into the build process."
"Breaking the build steps into targets lets you call one piece of the build process from other targets without copying that section of code into every target"
XML EXAMPLE:
<Target Name="Compile">
<Csc Sources="@(Compile)" />
</Target>
Spoiler: WHAT IS XML SCHEMA?
What is XML Schema (XSD)?
docs.microsoft.com
"XML Schema Definition (XSD) language is the current standard schema language for all XML documents and data. On May 2, 2001, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) published XSD in its version 1.0 format.
The XML Schema definition language (XSD) enables you to define the structure and data types for XML documents.
An XML Schema defines the elements, attributes, and data types that conform to the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C),
XML Schema Part 1: Structures Recommendation for the XML Schema Definition Language."
"The schema element contains type definitions (simpleType and complexType elements) and attribute and element declarations. In addition to its built-in data types (such as integer, string, and so on), XML Schema also allows for the definition of new data types using the simpleType and complexType elements.
simpleType
A type definition for a value that can be used as the content (textOnly) of an element or attribute. This data type cannot contain elements or have attributes.
complexType
A type definition for elements that can contain attributes and elements. This data type can contain elements and have attributes."
Spoiler: MSBUILD ON THE COMMAND LINE
MSBuild on the command line - C++
Learn more about: MSBuild on the command line - C++
docs.microsoft.com
"you can use the MSBuild tool directly from the command prompt. The build process is controlled by the information in a project file (.vcxproj) that you can create and edit."
CLI EXAMPLE:
msbuild.exe [ project_file ] [ options ]
"Use the /target (or /t) and /property (or /p) command-line options to override specific properties and targets that are specified in the project file."
"A project file can specify one or more targets, which can include a default target."
"Each target consists of a sequence of one or more tasks. Each task is represented by a .NET Framework class that contains one executable command. For example, the CL task contains the cl.exe command."
"A task parameter is a property of the class task and typically represents a command-line option of the executable command."
Spoiler: MSBUILD COMMAND LINE REFERENCES
MSBuild Command-Line Reference - MSBuild
Learn how to use MSBuild.exe command line to build a project or solution file, and several switches you can include.
docs.microsoft.com
"When you use MSBuild.exe to build a project or solution file, you can include several switches to specify various aspects of the process."
"Every switch is available in two forms: -switch and /switch."
"Switches are not case-sensitive. If you run MSBuild from a shell other than the Windows command prompt, lists of arguments to a switch (separated by semicolons or commas) might need single or double quotes to ensure that lists are passed to MSBuild instead of interpreted by the shell."
SYNTAX:
MSBuild.exe [Switches] [ProjectFile]
ARGUMENT:
ProjectFile Builds the targets in the project file that you specify. If you don't specify a project file,
MSBuild searches the current working directory for a file name extension that ends in proj and uses that file.

Microsoft (R) Build Engine version 17.0.0+c9eb9dd64 for .NET Framework
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
Syntax: MSBuild.exe [options] [project file | directory]
Description: Builds the specified targets in the project file. If a project file is not specified, MSBuild searches the current working directory for a file that has a file extension that ends in "proj" and uses that file. If a directory is specified, MSBuild searches that directory for a project file.
Switches: Note that you can specify switches using:
"-switch", "/switch" and "--switch".
-target:<targets> Build these targets in this project. Use a semicolon or a comma to separate multiple targets, or specify each target separately. (Short form: -t)
Example:
-target:Resources;Compile
-property:<n>=<v> Set or override these project-level properties. <n> is the property name, and <v> is the property value. Use a semicolon or a comma to separate multiple properties, or specify each property separately.
(Short form: -p)
Example:
-property:WarningLevel=2;OutDir=bin\Debug\
-maxCpuCount[:n] Specifies the maximum number of concurrent processes to build with. If the switch is not used, the default value used is 1. If the switch is used without a value MSBuild will use up to the number of processors on the computer. (Short form: -m[:n])
-toolsVersion:<version> The version of the MSBuild Toolset (tasks, targets, etc.) to use during build. This version will override the versions specified by individual projects.
(Short form: -tv)
Example:
-toolsVersion:3.5
-verbosity:<level> Display this amount of information in the event log.
The available verbosity levels are: q[uiet], m[inimal], n[ormal], d[etailed], and diag[nostic].
(Short form: -v)
Example:
-verbosity:quiet
-consoleLoggerParameters:<parameters> Parameters to console logger.
(Short form: -clp)
The available parameters are:
PerformanceSummary--Show time spent in tasks, targets and projects.
Summary--Show error and warning summary at the end.
NoSummary--Don't show error and warning summary at the end.
ErrorsOnly--Show only errors.
WarningsOnly--Show only warnings.
NoItemAndPropertyList--Don't show list of items and properties at the start of each project build.
ShowCommandLine--Show TaskCommandLineEvent messages
ShowTimestamp--Display the Timestamp as a prefix to any message.
ShowEventId--Show eventId for started events, finished events, and messages
ForceNoAlign--Does not align the text to the size of the console buffer
DisableConsoleColor--Use the default console colors for all logging messages.
DisableMPLogging-- Disable the multiprocessor logging style of output when running in non-multiprocessor mode.
EnableMPLogging--Enable the multiprocessor logging style even when running in non-multiprocessor mode. This logging style is on by default.
ForceConsoleColor--Use ANSI console colors even if console does not support it
Verbosity--overrides the -verbosity setting for this logger.
Example:
-consoleLoggerParameterserformanceSummary;NoSummary;
Verbosity=minimal
-noConsoleLogger Disable the default console logger and do not log events to the console. (Short form: -noConLog)
-fileLogger[n] Logs the build output to a file. By default the file is in the current directory and named
"msbuild[n].log". Events from all nodes are combined into a single log. The location of the file and other parameters for the fileLogger can be specified through the addition of the "-fileLoggerParameters[n]" switch. "n" if present can be a digit from 1-9, allowing up to 10 file loggers to be attached.
(Short form: -fl[n])
-fileLoggerParameters[n]:<parameters> Provides any extra parameters for file loggers. The presence of this switch implies the corresponding -fileLogger[n] switch.
"n" if present can be a digit from 1-9.
-fileLoggerParameters is also used by any distributed file logger, see description of -distributedFileLogger.
(Short form: -flp[n])
The same parameters listed for the console logger are available. Some additional available parameters are:
LogFile--path to the log file into which the build log will be written.
Append--determines if the build log will be appended to or overwrite the log file. Setting the switch appends the build log to the log file;
Not setting the switch overwrites the contents of an existing log file. The default is not to append to the log file.
Encoding--specifies the encoding for the file, for example, UTF-8, Unicode, or ASCII Default verbosity is Detailed.
Examples:
-fileLoggerParameters:LogFile=MyLog.log;Append; Verbosity=diagnostic;Encoding=UTF-8
-flp:Summary;Verbosity=minimal;LogFile=msbuild.sum
-flp1:warningsonly;logfile=msbuild.wrn
-flp2:errorsonly;logfile=msbuild.err
-distributedLogger:<central logger>*<forwarding logger>
Use this logger to log events from MSBuild, attaching a different logger instance to each node. To specify multiple loggers, specify each logger separately.
(Short form -dl)
The <logger> syntax is:
[<class>,]<assembly>[,<options>][;<parameters>]
The <logger class> syntax is:
[<partial or full namespace>.]<logger class name>
The <logger assembly> syntax is:
{<assembly name>[,<strong name>] | <assembly file>}
Logger options specify how MSBuild creates the logger. The <logger parameters> are optional, and are passed to the logger exactly as you typed them.
(Short form: -l)
Examples:
-dl:XMLLogger,MyLogger,Version=1.0.2,Culture=neutral
-dl:MyLogger,C:\My.dll*ForwardingLogger,C:\Logger.dll
-distributedFileLogger
Logs the build output to multiple log files, one log file per MSBuild node. The initial location for these files is the current directory. By default the files are called "MSBuild<nodeid>.log". The location of the files and other parameters for the fileLogger can be specified with the addition of the "-fileLoggerParameters" switch.
If a log file name is set through the fileLoggerParameters switch the distributed logger will use the fileName as a template and append the node id to this fileName to create a log file for each node.
-logger:<logger> Use this logger to log events from MSBuild. To specify multiple loggers, specify each logger separately.
The <logger> syntax is:
[<class>,]<assembly>[,<options>][;<parameters>]
The <logger class> syntax is:
[<partial or full namespace>.]<logger class name>
The <logger assembly> syntax is:
{<assembly name>[,<strong name>] | <assembly file>}
Logger options specify how MSBuild creates the logger.
The <logger parameters> are optional, and are passed to the logger exactly as you typed them.
(Short form: -l)
Examples:
-logger:XMLLogger,MyLogger,Version=1.0.2,Culture=neutral
-logger:XMLLogger,C:\Loggers\MyLogger.dll;OutputAsHTML
-binaryLogger[:[LogFile=]output.binlog[;ProjectImports={None,Embed,ZipFile}]]
Serializes all build events to a compressed binary file.
By default the file is in the current directory and named "msbuild.binlog". The binary log is a detailed description of the build process that can later be used to reconstruct text logs and used by other analysis tools. A binary log is usually 10-20x smaller than the most detailed text diagnostic-level log, but it contains more information.
(Short form: -bl)
The binary logger by default collects the source text of project files, including all imported projects and target files encountered during the build. The optional ProjectImports switch controls this behavior:
ProjectImports=None - Don't collect the project imports.
ProjectImports=Embed - Embed project imports in the log file.
ProjectImports=ZipFile - Save project files to output.projectimports.zip where output is the same name as the binary log file name.
The default setting for ProjectImports is Embed. Note: the logger does not collect non-MSBuild source files such as .cs, .cpp etc.
A .binlog file can be "played back" by passing it to msbuild.exe as an argument instead of a project/solution. Other loggers will receive the information contained in the log file as if the original build was happening.
You can read more about the binary log and its usages at:

-bl:..\..\custom.binlog
-binaryLogger
-warnAsError[:code[;code2]]
List of warning codes to treats as errors. Use a semicolon or a comma to separate multiple warning codes. To treat all warnings as errors use the switch with no values.
(Short form: -err[:c;[c2]])
Example:
-warnAsError:MSB4130
When a warning is treated as an error the target will continue to execute as if it was a warning but the overall build will fail.
-warnAsMessage[:code[;code2]]
List of warning codes to treats as low importance messages. Use a semicolon or a comma to separate multiple warning codes.
(Short form: -noWarn[:c;[c2]])
Example:
-warnAsMessage:MSB3026
-validate Validate the project against the default schema. (Short form: -val)
-validate:<schema> Validate the project against the specified schema. (Short form: -val)
Example:
-validate:MyExtendedBuildSchema.xsd
-ignoreProjectExtensions:<extensions>
List of extensions to ignore when determining which project file to build. Use a semicolon or a comma to separate multiple extensions.
(Short form: -ignore)
Example:
-ignoreProjectExtensions:.sln
-nodeReuse:<parameters>
Enables or Disables the reuse of MSBuild nodes.
The parameters are:
True --Nodes will remain after the build completes and will be reused by subsequent builds (default)
False--Nodes will not remain after the build completes
(Short form: -nr)
Example:
-nr:true
-preprocess[:file]
Creates a single, aggregated project file by inlining all the files that would be imported during a build, with their boundaries marked. This can be
useful for figuring out what files are being imported and from where, and what they will contribute to the build. By default the output is written to the console window. If the path to an output file is provided that will be used instead.
(Short form: -pp)
Example:
-pput.txt
-targets[:file]
Prints a list of available targets without executing the actual build process. By default the output is written to the console window. If the path to an output file is provided that will be used instead.
(Short form: -ts)
Example:
-tsut.txt
-detailedSummary[:True|False]
Shows detailed information at the end of the build about the configurations built and how they were scheduled to nodes.
(Short form: -ds)
-restore[:True|False]
Runs a target named Restore prior to building other targets and ensures the build for these targets uses the latest restored build logic.
This is useful when your project tree requires packages to be restored before it can be built.
Specifying -restore is the same as specifying
-restore:True. Use the parameter to override a value that comes from a response file.
(Short form: -r)
-restoreProperty:<n>=<v>
Set or override these project-level properties only during restore and do not use properties specified with the -property argument. <n> is the property name, and <v> is the property value. Use a semicolon or a comma to separate multiple properties, or specify each property separately.
(Short form: -rp)
Example:
-restoreProperty:IsRestore=true;MyProperty=value
-profileEvaluation:<file>
Profiles MSBuild evaluation and writes the result to the specified file. If the extension of the specified file is '.md', the result is generated in markdown format. Otherwise, a tab separated file is produced.
-interactive[:True|False]
Indicates that actions in the build are allowed to interact with the user. Do not use this argument in an automated scenario where interactivity is not expected.
Specifying -interactive is the same as specifying
-interactive:true. Use the parameter to override a value that comes from a response file.
-isolateProjects[:True|False]
Causes MSBuild to build each project in isolation. This is a more restrictive mode of MSBuild as it requires that the project graph be statically discoverable at evaluation time, but can improve scheduling and reduce memory overhead when building a large set of projects.
(Short form: -isolate)
This flag is experimental and may not work as intended.
-inputResultsCaches:<cacheFile>...
Semicolon separated list of input cache files that MSBuild will read build results from. Setting this also turns on isolated builds (-isolate).
(short form: -irc)
-outputResultsCache:[cacheFile]
Output cache file where MSBuild will write the contents of its build result caches at the end of the build. Setting this also turns on isolated builds (-isolate).
(short form: -orc)
-graphBuild[:True|False]
Causes MSBuild to construct and build a project graph.
Constructing a graph involves identifying project references to form dependencies. Building that graph involves attempting to build project references prior to the projects that reference them, differing from traditional MSBuild scheduling.
(Short form: -graph)
This flag is experimental and may not work as intended.
-lowPriority[:True|False]
Causes MSBuild to run at low process priority. Specifying -lowPriority is the same as specifying -lowPriority:True.
(Short form: -low)
@<file> Insert command-line settings from a text file. To specify multiple response files, specify each response file separately.
Any response files named "msbuild.rsp" are automatically consumed from the following locations:
(1) the directory of msbuild.exe
(2) the directory of the first project or solution built
-noAutoResponse Do not auto-include any MSBuild.rsp files.
(Short form:-noAutoRsp)
-noLogo Do not display the startup banner and copyright message.
-version Display version information only. (Short form: -ver)
-help Display this usage message. (Short form: -? or -h)
Examples:
MSBuild MyApp.sln -t:Rebuild -p:Configuration=Release
MSBuild MyApp.csproj -t:Clean
-p:Configuration=Debug;TargetFrameworkVersion=v3.5

Hi!
Great Job!
I done it for Windows 11 with a few changes, and windows 11 have install.esd not install.wim!
This was not my idea! It belongs to @jenneh, i only had done trough batch files.
You need to create this 5 batch files bellow:
* Need Notepad++ to be easy to read files.
* Use MediaCreationToolW11.exe and download ISO image or create a Pendrive with system.
* Extract from ISO or Pendrive all in to a work folder on descktop
* Create and copy the first 4 batch files in to inside the work folder.
* All 5 batch will request administrator permissions.
* At end delete/cut what ever the batch files from the work folder
*The 5 batch files is executed in to desktop and read what batch window says!
* Done!
This are the 5 batch files:
First one it show the images inside and the option the select and work on one.

[APP][WIN]WhatsApp Status Changer
http://www.wiretrip.org/2012/01/12/how-whatsappstatus-net-works/
Update #3: WhatsApp implemented an IP check – so this doesn’t work as well as it used to. The check entails checking if the update-request is for a WhatsApp account currently signed in, and checks if it is coming from the same IP as the target client is using. This means above could should still work for target WhatsApp users behind the same NAT (for example).

How to use the status changer:
1. download the appropiate windows package of curl on http://curl.haxx.se/download.html
extract curl.exe to a certain folder
2. search for msvcr100.dll on C:\ and copy the newest occurence into the certain folder
(on my PC it was in a folder of Java)
3. make sure both your Phone with Whatsapp and your PC are in the same WLAN (they need to have the same IP), make sure Whatsapp is running on your phone (you need to be online)
4. run whatsapp_status.bat:
Code:
@ECHO OFF
:first
if not "%~1"=="" goto setnumber
echo Please enter your phone number (starting with +):
set /p number=
goto second
:setnumber
set number=%~1%
goto second

if not "%~2"=="" goto setstatus
echo Please enter your new status:

look i have attached screen shot . the START command .
its not working
Mh you mean this command . Ok sorry
you can use the (start) command for execute or start different program
Example
Open new html page on specific url
start http://www.google.ch/search?q=lol
Open Power menu
start ms-settings-power
and again ....
After you can combine this code with a script etc..

can i use uri of apps to open them using this
ho, sorry . You mean the "Start" command .
Ok no problem. With "Start" command , you execute/open different programm
For example :
// open a website with arguments
start http://google.com/search?q=test
// open new email
start mailto:[email protected]
// open Bluetooth menu
start ms-settings-Bluetooth
After you can mix and make a 'batch' script file , or create a shortcut tile link to this script
Example :
Step 1 - write the code into a file with (echo) for open Bluetooth menu
echo start ms-settings-Bluetooth >> c:\data\test.bat
Step 2 - execute the (shortcut) command for create a tile to the home screen (.ink)
shortcut /n myTileTItle /t c:\data\test.bat
/n => shortcut name
/t => target file
/i => icon picture
you can check the sample scripts to "c:\scripts" and try to open the code with the type command.
Example :
//Read the code
Type mySampleFile.bat
//Execute the batch file
mySampleFile.bat
@irshad2809
this is a very interesting question !
I know you can start all of this command :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/jj662937(v=vs.105).aspx
I don't know before , we can start another app with a uri shema . For now , i use the code "Windows.System.Launcher.LaunchUriAsync" like on the picture i attach, i don't know if you can use it or not for open a installed app . Please if you try , can you come back give me the result ?
Maybe i can add this feature to the next update

good game, this app is very nice

[HOWTO] Sign and sideload Tizen applications to the Gear Fit2 (from Windows)

Intro
This howto will explain how to sideload *.tpk and *.wgt applications on your Gear Fit2. It'll also cover how to re-sign the application with your own certificates. This can be required if the application does not include a signature that's valid for your particular Gear Fit2. For example, this would be the case for applications that haven't been accepted to the Galaxy Apps store.
Warning
Unless we get people to develop and share their applications for the Gear Fit2, essentially all applications will have been developed for a different device. This means you'll run into varying degrees of incompatibility. Even if the application installs, there's no guarantee it will run. And even if it does run, it may be a terrible experience. And please show some caution regarding what you attempt to install, I don't take responsibility if you break anything following the guide.
Getting your own author and distributor certificates for your Gear Fit2
In order to sign applications, you need an author and distributor certificate for our Gear Fit2 device. For applications on the Galaxy Apps store, Samsung would be the one who signs applications with a distributor certificate. Since you will be sideloading applications, there's no guarantee they contain a valid signature from Samsung. You there need your own distributor certificate. This certificate will only be valid for signing applications for your particular Gear Fit2, which is why I can't make one for you. However you'll only have to do this once and can uninstall Tizen Studio after you're done. Unless you want to develop applications for the Gear Fit2, of course.
Things to download
Java SE Development Kit 8
Tizen Studio 1.2 with IDE installer
Tizen Studio setup
To install, simply accept the software licence agreement and install both the Tizen SDK and data in their default locations.
After installation, Tizen Studio Package Manager should automatically launch. If not, launch Tizen Studio and choose Tools->Package Manager. In the Package Manager you choose the Extension SDK tab and install Samsung Certificate Extension. When it has been installed, close the window and launch Tizen Studio. Press OK for default workspace location.
Connect Gear Fit2 to Tizen Studio
On your Gear Fit2: Got to Settings->Gear info and turn on Debugging. Then go to Settings->Connections. Here you make sure Wi-Fi is turned on and logged on to the same Wi-Fi network as your Windows computer and that Bluetooth is turned off. The Gear Fit2 tend to automatically log off Wi-Fi networks if its connected through Bluetooth. While you can have both on if you're quick, simply turning off Bluetooth leads to much less frustration. You may have to restart your Gear Fit2 at this point to get everything working.
In Tizen Studio, you should see a drop-down list in the tool bar saying No Target. Open the drop-down list and choose Launch remote device manager. Here you press Scan and wait for your device's IP address to appear. You'll only see Tizen devices, so unless you have multiple, there will only be one result. If it doesn't appear, repeat the process above. On the toggle under Connect, turn it from off to on. On your Gear Fit2 it should say RSA key fingerprint: .... You accept on the device and should now be connected. Close down the Remote Device Manager window. The drop-down list should now say SM-R360 ....
Now you choose the menu item Tools->Certificate Manager. Add a new certificate profile by pressing the "+" sign up to the right and then select SAMSUNG as the type for your certificate profile. Go through the 4 tabs as follows
Device Type
Choose Mobile/Wearable and press next.
Certificate Profile
Choose Create a new certificate profile and type any name you want. Press next.
Author Certificate
Choose Create a new author certificate and press next.
Type in an author name and password. Make sure you remember the password as it will be needed for signing applications later on.
You'll now be asked to sign in to your Samsung account. If you don't have one, choose Create new account and follow instructions.
After you've signed in you should get a Congratulations! notice. Take note of the location of the author certificate and press next
Distributor Certificate
Choose Create new distributor certificate and press next.
For Privilege choose Partner. This defines how much of the Tizen API the applications you'll be signing are allowed to access. The three levels are Public, Partner and Platform with Platform being the highest level of access. Unfortunately that's not available to us, so we choose Partner.
IMPORTANT: Leave the password as it is.
Under the section Add individual DUIDs you should find the first entry contains something that starts with 2.0#.... That's your Gear Fit2's DUID. If you don't see it, press cancel (sorry) and go back to the Connect Gear Fit2 to Tizen Studio section above. If you do see, it press next. Make a note of the location of the distributor certificate. This should be the same as the author certificate from above. Then press Finish and you're done.
Signing and installing applications on your Gear Fit2
Things to download (See attachments to the post)
Fit2Installer
PacMan
We'll use PacMan as an example. It's a modified version of the PacMan application found in this xda post. Some of the other applications in that link work on the Gear Fit2, some don't.
Using Fit2Installer
Download and extract the Fit2Installer. The folder contains the following.
sdb.exe: Smart Development Bridge for Tizen devices. This allows us to connect to the device and install applications. See tizen.developer.org's sdb section for more information on what you can do with it.
7zipcli: The open source a command-line archiver from 7-zip. Used to package applications.
tizen: A very stripped down version of Tizen Studio that only contains the required files for signing and packaging applications.
cert: Empty folder where you're supposed to place your own certificates.
sign_me: Empty folder where you place applications you want to be signed.
install_me: Empty folder where you place applications you want to be installed on your device.
sign.bat: Batch script that will sign the applications put in sign_me
sign.bat: Batch script that will connect your Gear Fit2 to your computer, allowing you to install applications.
install.bat: Batch script that will install the applications put in install_me
connect.bat: Batch script that will connect to your Gear Fit2.
disconnect.bat: Batch script that will disconnect from your Gear Fit2.
Setting up your certificates
Go to the location of the certificates you generated with the Certificate Manager. The standard location is in your user folder under ~\SamsungCertificate\<name of cert profile>. The folder should contain 9 files. Copy all those directly into the .\Fit2Installer\cert\ folder. Eg, distributor.p12 should be placed as .\Fit2Installer\cert\distributor.p12.
Signing applications
There are two ways of using the sign.bat script.
Place a *.tpk or *.wgt file directly in the sign_me folder. Run the sign.bat script and type in the password you chose for your certificate earlier. If successful, this will produce a *.tpk or *.wgt file in the install_me folder.
If you don't have the package file, but rather just a folder containing the files for the application you'll have to place that folder in sign_me. For *.tpk files, this means the path will be .\Fit2Installer\sign_me\<application_folder>\tizen-manifest.xml. For *wgt files it will be .\Fit2Installer\sign_me\<application_folder>\config.xml. Now, run the sign.bat script and type in your certificate password.
As an example, I've attached PacMan. PacMan is a web-app that was packaged for the Gear S2. In order to get it to fit the Gear Fit2 screen, I had to extract the PacMan.wgt file and make a few changes to the code. Changes to the files invalidates the signature, so I had to resign it using my own certificates. If you've everything set up correctly, this should be fairly simple for you to do too.
Extract the PacMan.zip archive and place the content in the folder .\Fit2Installer\sign_me\PacMan\ and run the sign.bat script. Look in the install_me folder to check there's a *.wgt file for PacMan.
Installing applications
As in the earlier section Connect Gear Fit2 to Tizen Studio, make sure you're on Wi-Fi, bluetooth is off and debugging in turned on. Also, make sure you only have one Tizen device connected to your computer (this includes Tizen emulators).
Run the connect.bat script and type in the IP address of your Gear Fit2. If you do not know the IP address, you can find it on the device under Settings->Connections->Wi-Fi->Wi-Fi networks-><wifi_name> and at the bottom of the list. Make sure you allow sdb.exe through your firewall.
Important responses are:
error: failed to connect to remote target <ip address>
Make sure you've set up your device correctly. Try turning Wi-Fi off and on. Or even a reboot of the device.
device unauthorized. Please approve on your device.
This may mean you have to accept the RSA key fingerprint on your Gear Fit2. However, there appears to be a bug in the sdb that causes this to happen regardless. Try to run the script twice and see if you get the message below:
<ip address>:26101 is already connected
Now you know for sure your device is connected.
After you've connected, you can safely turn Bluetooth back on. Remember to run disconnect.bat when you're done installing applications. Your Gear Fit2 will otherwise stay connected and drain a lot of battery.
Similarly to using the sign.bat script, there are two ways of using the install.bat script. Both of them require the application to already have a valid signature.
Place a *.tpk or *.wgt file directly in the install_me folder. Run the install.bat script.
If you don't have the package file, but rather just a folder containing the application you'll have to place that folder in install_me. For *.tpk files, this means the path will be .\Fit2Installer\install_me\<application_folder>\tizen-manifest.xml. For *wgt files it will be .\Fit2Installer\install_me\<application_folder>\config.xml.. Run the install.bat script.
Since PacMan should already be signed and placed correctly in the install_me folder, you can now run the install.bat script to install it on your Gear Fit2.

Few months tooo late...
Somebody tested this solution successfully?
I wish to insert the Certs for Public, Partner and Platform...

:angel:
I am using since years my SM-Z130H, RD-PQ and now SM-Z300H for signing easily...
But as Windows Fan Boy maybe Windows solution would be nice. :angel:
I will later add info where I have problems... maybe only path wrong...
Best Regards
Code:
D:\Fit2Installer>sign.bat
Enter certificate password: test
Setting configuration is succeeded....

yes, i also had to change the paths manually in the sign.bat file; and then it works - on gear s3, tizen 3.0.0.2

Hi adfree
I have placed the unzipped "Fit2Installer" folder in the main tree C:\Fit2Installer
(this is Windows 10 on a Virtual Machine on a Mac)
As per the instructions have already copy pasted the certificates made with Tizen Studio in C:\Fit2Installer\cert
Below is the contents of my "sign.bat" file relating to above path
And further below is also the output window of cmd.exe having run the "sign.bat" file for "waldo_transl.wgt" that was placed in the "sign_me" subfolder
There is something about security profile.xml path, which i also tried to address by editing the default profile path in the "tizen cli-config" file, but it always comes back as before, so left it as it was, as it still works.
Finally I also shared with all my PC users the read/write rights for the "Fit2Installer" folder just in case, as described in the instructions for the "Tizen Studio" folder too
Hope this helps

The query I had is resolved after going through the complete thread, so this post is irrelevant. However, I might as well use this opportunity to thank those who have contributed to this as the guide works fine.
Hey, i would like to take this opportunity and thank you for this really useful guide. Everything works fine, but I would like to ask you about the changes you did to the .wgt in order to get the screen shape right, because most of the apps are either cut in half or really small.

General Intro to Cryptography By a Noob

Hello Friends~!
I have built information trees, to teach you about these tools. I was originally going to package them all together, but in my efforts of doing so I realize that the process was getting too convoluted, when there is already an excellent "package manager" called Chocolatey that will allow us to Download all These and more, with "wrapped" permissions, meaning you don't have to go into settings, and program environment variables for Every Single Program you want to install. I will make a separate thread on Chocolatey and explain better what it is, and how to use it

Spoiler: WHAT IS OPEN SSL
Spoiler: README
Welcome to the OpenSSL Project
www.openssl.org
OpenSSL is a robust, commercial-grade, full-featured Open Source Toolkit
for the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol formerly known as the
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. The protocol implementation is based
on a full-strength general purpose cryptographic library, which can also
be used stand-alone.
OpenSSL is descended from the SSLeay library developed by Eric A. Young
and Tim J. Hudson.
The official Home Page of the OpenSSL Project is [www.openssl.org].
Spoiler: OVERVIEW
The OpenSSL toolkit includes:
- **libssl**
an implementation of all TLS protocol versions up to TLSv1.3 ([RFC 8446]).
- **libcrypto**
a full-strength general purpose cryptographic library. It constitutes the
basis of the TLS implementation, but can also be used independently.
- **openssl**
the OpenSSL command line tool, a swiss army knife for cryptographic tasks,
testing and analyzing. It can be used for
- creation of key parameters
- creation of X.509 certificates, CSRs and CRLs
- calculation of message digests
- encryption and decryption
- SSL/TLS client and server tests
- handling of S/MIME signed or encrypted mail
- and more...
Spoiler: FOR PRODUCTION USE
Source code tarballs of the official releases can be downloaded from
[www.openssl.org/source](https://www.openssl.org/source).
The OpenSSL project does not distribute the toolkit in binary form.
However, for a large variety of operating systems precompiled versions
of the OpenSSL toolkit are available. In particular on Linux and other
Unix operating systems it is normally recommended to link against the
precompiled shared libraries provided by the distributor or vendor.
Spoiler: FOR TESTING AND DEVELOPMENT
Although testing and development could in theory also be done using
the source tarballs, having a local copy of the git repository with
the entire project history gives you much more insight into the
code base.
The official OpenSSL Git Repository is located at [git.openssl.org].
There is a GitHub mirror of the repository at [github.com/openssl/openssl],
which is updated automatically from the former on every commit.
A local copy of the Git Repository can be obtained by cloning it from
the original OpenSSL repository using
git clone git://git.openssl.org/openssl.git
or from the GitHub mirror using
git clone https://github.com/openssl/openssl.git
If you intend to contribute to OpenSSL, either to fix bugs or contribute
new features, you need to fork the OpenSSL repository openssl/openssl on
GitHub and clone your public fork instead.
git clone https://github.com/yourname/openssl.git
This is necessary, because all development of OpenSSL nowadays is done via
GitHub pull requests. For more details, see [Contributing](#contributing).
Spoiler: BUILD AND INSTALL
After obtaining the Source, have a look at the [INSTALL](INSTALL.md) file for
detailed instructions about building and installing OpenSSL. For some
platforms, the installation instructions are amended by a platform specific
document.
* [Notes for UNIX-like platforms](NOTES-UNIX.md)
* [Notes for Android platforms](NOTES-ANDROID.md)
* [Notes for Windows platforms](NOTES-WINDOWS.md)
* [Notes for the DOS platform with DJGPP](NOTES-DJGPP.md)
* [Notes for the OpenVMS platform](NOTES-VMS.md)
* [Notes on Perl](NOTES-PERL.md)
* [Notes on Valgrind](NOTES-VALGRIND.md)
Specific notes on upgrading to OpenSSL 3.0 from previous versions, as well as
known issues are available on the [OpenSSL 3.0 Wiki] page.

Spoiler: INSTALLATION AND EXPLANATION OF SYSTEMS
This document describes installation on all supported operating
systems (the Unix/Linux family, including macOS), OpenVMS,
and Windows).
Spoiler: TABLE OF CONTENTS
Spoiler: PREREQUISITES
To install OpenSSL, you will need:
* A "make" implementation
* Perl 5 with core modules (please read [NOTES-PERL.md](NOTES-PERL.md))
* The Perl module `Text::Template` (please read [NOTES-PERL.md](NOTES-PERL.md))
* an ANSI C compiler
* a development environment in the form of development libraries and C
header files
* a supported operating system
Spoiler: NOTATIONAL CONVENTIONS
Throughout this document, we use the following conventions.
Spoiler: COMMANDS
Any line starting with a dollar sign is a command line.
$ command
The dollar sign indicates the shell prompt and is not to be entered as
part of the command.
Spoiler: CHOICES
Several words in curly braces separated by pipe characters indicate a
**mandatory choice**, to be replaced with one of the given words.
Spoiler: EXAMPLE
For example, the line
$ echo { WORD1 | WORD2 | WORD3 }
represents one of the following three commands
$ echo WORD1
- or -
$ echo WORD2
- or -
$ echo WORD3
One or several words in square brackets separated by pipe characters
denote an **optional choice**. It is similar to the mandatory choice,
but it can also be omitted entirely.
Spoiler: EXAMPLE
So the line
$ echo [ WORD1 | WORD2 | WORD3 ]
represents one of the four commands
$ echo WORD1
- or -
$ echo WORD2
- or -
$ echo WORD3
- or -
$ echo
Spoiler: ARGUMENTS
**Optional Arguments** are enclosed in square brackets.
[option...]
A trailing ellipsis means that more than one could be specified.
Spoiler: QUICK INSTALLATION GUIDE
If you just want to get OpenSSL installed without bothering too much
about the details, here is the short version of how to build and install
OpenSSL. If any of the following steps fails, please consult the
[Installation in Detail](#installation-steps-in-detail) section below.
Spoiler: BUILDING OPENSSL
Use the following commands to configure, build and test OpenSSL.
The testing is optional, but recommended if you intend to install
OpenSSL for production use.
Spoiler: UNIX LINUX MAC
$ ./Configure
$ make
$ make test
Spoiler: OPENVMS
Use the following commands to build OpenSSL:
$ perl Configure
$ mms
$ mms test
Spoiler: WINDOWS
If you are using Visual Studio, open a Developer Command Prompt and
issue the following commands to build OpenSSL.
$ perl Configure
$ nmake
$ nmake test
As mentioned in the [Choices](#choices) section, you need to pick one
of the four Configure targets in the first command.
Most likely you will be using the `VC-WIN64A` target for 64bit Windows
binaries (AMD64) or `VC-WIN32` for 32bit Windows binaries (X86).
The other two options are `VC-WIN64I` (Intel IA64, Itanium) and
`VC-CE` (Windows CE) are rather uncommon nowadays.
Spoiler: INSTALLING OPENSSL
The following commands will install OpenSSL to a default system location.
**Danger Zone:** even if you are impatient, please read the following two
paragraphs carefully before you install OpenSSL.
For security reasons the default system location is by default not writable
for unprivileged users. So for the final installation step administrative
privileges are required. The default system location and the procedure to
obtain administrative privileges depends on the operating system.
It is recommended to compile and test OpenSSL with normal user privileges
and use administrative privileges only for the final installation step.
Spoiler: SYSTEMS WITH OPENSSL PREINSTALLED
On some platforms OpenSSL is preinstalled as part of the Operating System.
In this case it is highly recommended not to overwrite the system versions,
because other applications or libraries might depend on it.
To avoid breaking other applications, install your copy of OpenSSL to a
[different location](#installing-to-a-different-location) which is not in
the global search path for system libraries.
Finally, if you plan on using the FIPS module, you need to read the
[Post-installation Notes](#post-installation-notes) further down.
Spoiler: UNIX LINUX MAC
Depending on your distribution, you need to run the following command as
root user or prepend `sudo` to the command:
$ make install
By default, OpenSSL will be installed to
/usr/local
More precisely, the files will be installed into the subdirectories
/usr/local/bin
/usr/local/lib
/usr/local/include
depending on the file type, as it is custom on Unix-like operating systems.
Spoiler: OPENVMS
Use the following command to install OpenSSL.
$ mms install
By default, OpenSSL will be installed to
SYS$COMMON:[OPENSSL]
Spoiler: WINDOWS
Spoiler: USING VISUAL STUDIO
If you are using Visual Studio, open the Developer Command Prompt _elevated_
and issue the following command.
$ nmake install
The easiest way to elevate the Command Prompt is to press and hold down
the both the `<CTRL>` and `<SHIFT>` key while clicking the menu item in the
task menu.
The default installation location is
C:\Program Files\OpenSSL
for native binaries, or
C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenSSL
for 32bit binaries on 64bit Windows (WOW64).
Spoiler: INSTALLING TO A DIFFERENT LOCATION
To install OpenSSL to a different location (for example into your home
directory for testing purposes) run `Configure` as shown in the following
examples.
The options `--prefix` and `--openssldir` are explained in further detail in
[Directories](#directories) below, and the values used here are mere examples.
Spoiler: UNIX OPENVMS
On Unix:
$ ./Configure --prefix=/opt/openssl --openssldir=/usr/local/ssl
On OpenVMS:
$ perl Configure --prefix=PROGRAM:[INSTALLS] --openssldir=SYS$MANAGER:[OPENSSL]
Note: if you do add options to the configuration command, please make sure
you've read more than just this Quick Start, such as relevant `NOTES-*` files,
the options outline below, as configuration options may change the outcome
in otherwise unexpected ways.
Spoiler: CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
There are several options to `./Configure` to customize the build (note that
for Windows, the defaults for `--prefix` and `--openssldir` depend on what
configuration is used and what Windows implementation OpenSSL is built on.
For more information, see the [Notes for Windows platforms](NOTES-WINDOWS.md).
Spoiler: API LEVEL
Spoiler: API=X.Y[.Z]
--api=x.y[.z]
Build the OpenSSL libraries to support the API for the specified version.
If [no-deprecated](#no-deprecated) is also given, don't build with support
for deprecated APIs in or below the specified version number. For example,
adding
Spoiler: API=1.1.0 NO-DEPRECATED
--api=1.1.0 no-deprecated
will remove support for all APIs that were deprecated in OpenSSL version
1.1.0 or below. This is a rather specialized option for developers.
If you just intend to remove all deprecated APIs up to the current version
entirely, just specify [no-deprecated](#no-deprecated).
If `--api` isn't given, it defaults to the current (minor) OpenSSL version.
Spoiler: CROSS COMPILE PREFIX
--cross-compile-prefix=<PREFIX>
The `<PREFIX>` to include in front of commands for your toolchain.
It is likely to have to end with dash, e.g. `a-b-c-` would invoke GNU compiler
as `a-b-c-gcc`, etc. Unfortunately cross-compiling is too case-specific to put
together one-size-fits-all instructions. You might have to pass more flags or
set up environment variables to actually make it work. Android and iOS cases
are discussed in corresponding `Configurations/15-*.conf` files. But there are
cases when this option alone is sufficient. For example to build the mingw64
target on Linux `--cross-compile-prefix=x86_64-w64-mingw32-` works. Naturally
provided that mingw packages are installed. Today Debian and Ubuntu users
have option to install a number of prepackaged cross-compilers along with
corresponding run-time and development packages for "alien" hardware. To give
another example `--cross-compile-prefix=mipsel-linux-gnu-` suffices in such
case.
For cross compilation, you must [configure manually](#manual-configuration).
Also, note that `--openssldir` refers to target's file system, not one you are
building on.
Spoiler: BUILD TYPE
--debug
Build OpenSSL with debugging symbols and zero optimization level.
--release
Build OpenSSL without debugging symbols. This is the default.
Spoiler: DIRECTORIES
Spoiler: LIBDIR
--libdir=DIR
The name of the directory under the top of the installation directory tree
(see the `--prefix` option) where libraries will be installed. By default
this is `lib`. Note that on Windows only static libraries (`*.lib`) will
be stored in this location. Shared libraries (`*.dll`) will always be
installed to the `bin` directory.
Some build targets have a multilib postfix set in the build configuration.
For these targets the default libdir is `lib<multilib-postfix>`. Please use
`--libdir=lib` to override the libdir if adding the postfix is undesirable.
Spoiler: OPENSSLDIR
--openssldir=DIR
Directory for OpenSSL configuration files, and also the default certificate
and key store. Defaults are:
Unix: /usr/local/ssl
Windows: C:\Program Files\Common Files\SSL
OpenVMS: SYS$COMMON:[OPENSSL-COMMON]
For 32bit Windows applications on Windows 64bit (WOW64), always replace
`C:\Program Files` by `C:\Program Files (x86)`.
Spoiler: PREFIX
--prefix=DIR
The top of the installation directory tree. Defaults are:
Unix: /usr/local
Windows: C:\Program Files\OpenSSL
OpenVMS: SYS$COMMON:[OPENSSL]
Spoiler: COMPILER WARNINGS
--strict-warnings
This is a developer flag that switches on various compiler options recommended
for OpenSSL development. It only works when using gcc or clang as the compiler.
If you are developing a patch for OpenSSL then it is recommended that you use
this option where possible.
Spoiler: ZLIB FLAGS
Spoiler: WITH-ZLIB-INCLUDE
--with-zlib-include=DIR
The directory for the location of the zlib include file. This option is only
necessary if [zlib](#zlib) is used and the include file is not
already on the system include path.
Spoiler: WITH-ZLIB-LIB
--with-zlib-lib=LIB
Spoiler: UNIX
**On Unix**: this is the directory containing the zlib library.
If not provided the system library path will be used.
Spoiler: WINDOWS
**On Windows:** this is the filename of the zlib library (with or
without a path). This flag must be provided if the
[zlib-dynamic](#zlib-dynamic) option is not also used. If `zlib-dynamic` is used
then this flag is optional and defaults to `ZLIB1` if not provided.
Spoiler: VMS
**On VMS:** this is the filename of the zlib library (with or without a path).
This flag is optional and if not provided then `GNV$LIBZSHR`, `GNV$LIBZSHR32`
or `GNV$LIBZSHR64` is used by default depending on the pointer size chosen.
Spoiler: SEEDING THE RANDOM NUMBER GENERATOR
--with-rand-seed=seed1[,seed2,...]
A comma separated list of seeding methods which will be tried by OpenSSL
in order to obtain random input (a.k.a "entropy") for seeding its
cryptographically secure random number generator (CSPRNG).
The current seeding methods are:
Spoiler: OS
### os
Use a trusted operating system entropy source.
This is the default method if such an entropy source exists.
Spoiler: GETRANDOM
### getrandom
Use the [getrandom(2)][man-getrandom] or equivalent system call.
[man-getrandom]: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/getrandom.2.html
Spoiler: DEVRANDOM
### devrandom
Use the first device from the `DEVRANDOM` list which can be opened to read
random bytes. The `DEVRANDOM` preprocessor constant expands to
"/dev/urandom","/dev/random","/dev/srandom"
on most unix-ish operating systems.
Spoiler: EGD
### egd
Check for an entropy generating daemon.
This source is ignored by the FIPS provider.
Spoiler: RDCPU
### rdcpu
Use the `RDSEED` or `RDRAND` command on x86 or `RNDRRS` command on aarch64
if provided by the CPU.
Spoiler: LIBRANDOM
### librandom
Use librandom (not implemented yet).
This source is ignored by the FIPS provider.
Spoiler: NONE
### none
Disable automatic seeding. This is the default on some operating systems where
no suitable entropy source exists, or no support for it is implemented yet.
This option is ignored by the FIPS provider.
For more information, see the section [Notes on random number generation][rng]
at the end of this document.
[rng]: #notes-on-random-number-generation
Spoiler: SETTING THE FIPS HMAC KEY
Spoiler: FIPS-KEY=VALUE
--fips-key=value
As part of its self-test validation, the FIPS module must verify itself
by performing a SHA-256 HMAC computation on itself. The default key is
the SHA256 value of "the holy handgrenade of antioch" and is sufficient
for meeting the FIPS requirements.
To change the key to a different value, use this flag. The value should
be a hex string no more than 64 characters.
Spoiler: ENABLE AND DISABLE FEATURES
Feature options always come in pairs, an option to enable feature
`xxxx`, and an option to disable it:
[ enable-xxxx | no-xxxx ]
Whether a feature is enabled or disabled by default, depends on the feature.
In the following list, always the non-default variant is documented: if
feature `xxxx` is disabled by default then `enable-xxxx` is documented and
if feature `xxxx` is enabled by default then `no-xxxx` is documented.
Spoiler: NO-AFALGENG
### no-afalgeng
Don't build the AFALG engine.
This option will be forced on a platform that does not support AFALG.
Spoiler: ENABLE-KTLS
### enable-ktls
Build with Kernel TLS support.
This option will enable the use of the Kernel TLS data-path, which can improve
performance and allow for the use of sendfile and splice system calls on
TLS sockets. The Kernel may use TLS accelerators if any are available on the
system. This option will be forced off on systems that do not support the
Kernel TLS data-path.
Spoiler: ENABLE-ASAN
### enable-asan
Build with the Address sanitiser.
This is a developer option only. It may not work on all platforms and should
never be used in production environments. It will only work when used with
gcc or clang and should be used in conjunction with the [no-shared](#no-shared)
option.
Spoiler: ENABLE-ACVP-TESTS
### enable-acvp-tests
Build support for Automated Cryptographic Validation Protocol (ACVP)
tests.
This is required for FIPS validation purposes. Certain ACVP tests require
access to algorithm internals that are not normally accessible.
Additional information related to ACVP can be found at
<https://github.com/usnistgov/ACVP>.
Spoiler: NO-ASM
### no-asm
Do not use assembler code.
This should be viewed as debugging/troubleshooting option rather than for
production use. On some platforms a small amount of assembler code may still
be used even with this option.
Spoiler: NO-ASYNC
### no-async
Do not build support for async operations.
Spoiler: NO-AUTOALGINIT
### no-autoalginit
Don't automatically load all supported ciphers and digests.
Typically OpenSSL will make available all of its supported ciphers and digests.
For a statically linked application this may be undesirable if small executable
size is an objective. This only affects libcrypto. Ciphers and digests will
have to be loaded manually using `EVP_add_cipher()` and `EVP_add_digest()`
if this option is used. This option will force a non-shared build.
Spoiler: NO-AUTOERRINIT
### no-autoerrinit
Don't automatically load all libcrypto/libssl error strings.
Typically OpenSSL will automatically load human readable error strings. For a
statically linked application this may be undesirable if small executable size
is an objective.
Spoiler: NO-AUTOLOAD-CONFIG
### no-autoload-config
Don't automatically load the default `openssl.cnf` file.
Typically OpenSSL will automatically load a system config file which configures
default SSL options.
Spoiler: ENABLE-BUILDTEST-C++
### enable-buildtest-c++
While testing, generate C++ buildtest files that simply check that the public
OpenSSL header files are usable standalone with C++.
Enabling this option demands extra care. For any compiler flag given directly
as configuration option, you must ensure that it's valid for both the C and
the C++ compiler. If not, the C++ build test will most likely break. As an
alternative, you can use the language specific variables, `CFLAGS` and `CXXFLAGS`.
Spoiler: BANNER=TEXT
### --banner=text
Use the specified text instead of the default banner at the end of
configuration.
Spoiler: W
### --w
On platforms where the choice of 32-bit or 64-bit architecture
is not explicitly specified, `Configure` will print a warning
message and wait for a few seconds to let you interrupt the
configuration. Using this flag skips the wait.
Spoiler: NO-BULK
### no-bulk
Build only some minimal set of features.
This is a developer option used internally for CI build tests of the project.
Spoiler: NO-CACHED-FETCH
### no-cached-fetch
Never cache algorithms when they are fetched from a provider. Normally, a
provider indicates if the algorithms it supplies can be cached or not. Using
this option will reduce run-time memory usage but it also introduces a
significant performance penalty. This option is primarily designed to help
with detecting incorrect reference counting.
Spoiler: NO-CAPIENG
### no-capieng
Don't build the CAPI engine.
This option will be forced if on a platform that does not support CAPI.
Spoiler: NO-CMP
### no-cmp
Don't build support for Certificate Management Protocol (CMP)
and Certificate Request Message Format (CRMF).
Spoiler: NO-CMS
### no-cms
Don't build support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS).
Spoiler: NO-COMP
### no-comp
Don't build support for SSL/TLS compression.
If this option is enabled (the default), then compression will only work if
the zlib or `zlib-dynamic` options are also chosen.
Spoiler: ENABLE-CRYPTO-MDEBUG
### enable-crypto-mdebug
This now only enables the `failed-malloc` feature.
Spoiler: ENABLE-CRYPTO-MDEBUG-BACKTRACE
### enable-crypto-mdebug-backtrace
This is a no-op; the project uses the compiler's address/leak sanitizer instead.
Spoiler: NO-CT
### no-ct
Don't build support for Certificate Transparency (CT).
Spoiler: NO-DEPRECATED
### no-deprecated
Don't build with support for deprecated APIs up until and including the version
given with `--api` (or the current version, if `--api` wasn't specified).
Spoiler: NO-DGRAM
### no-dgram
Don't build support for datagram based BIOs.
Selecting this option will also force the disabling of DTLS.
Spoiler: NO-DSO
### no-dso
Don't build support for loading Dynamic Shared Objects (DSO)
Spoiler: ENABLE-DEVCRYPTOENG
### enable-devcryptoeng
Build the `/dev/crypto` engine.
This option is automatically selected on the BSD platform, in which case it can
be disabled with `no-devcryptoeng`.
Spoiler: NO-DYNAMIC-ENGINE
### no-dynamic-engine
Don't build the dynamically loaded engines.
This only has an effect in a shared build.
Spoiler: NO-EC
### no-ec
Don't build support for Elliptic Curves.
Spoiler: NO-EC2M
### no-ec2m
Don't build support for binary Elliptic Curves
Spoiler: ENABLE-EC_NISTP_64_GCC_128
### enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128
Enable support for optimised implementations of some commonly used NIST
elliptic curves.
This option is only supported on platforms:
- with little-endian storage of non-byte types
- that tolerate misaligned memory references
- where the compiler:
- supports the non-standard type `__uint128_t`
- defines the built-in macro `__SIZEOF_INT128__`
Spoiler: ENABLE-EGD
### enable-egd
Build support for gathering entropy from the Entropy Gathering Daemon (EGD).
Spoiler: NO-ENGINE
### no-engine
Don't build support for loading engines.
Spoiler: NO-ERR
### no-err
Don't compile in any error strings.
Spoiler: ENABLE-EXTERNAL-TESTS
### enable-external-tests
Enable building of integration with external test suites.
This is a developer option and may not work on all platforms. The following
external test suites are currently supported:
- GOST engine test suite
- Python PYCA/Cryptography test suite
- krb5 test suite
See the file [test/README-external.md](test/README-external.md)
for further details.
Spoiler: NO-FILENAMES
### no-filenames
Don't compile in filename and line number information (e.g. for errors and
memory allocation).
Spoiler: ENABLE-FIPS
### enable-fips
Build (and install) the FIPS provider
Spoiler: NO-FIPS-SECURITYCHECKS
### no-fips-securitychecks
Don't perform FIPS module run-time checks related to enforcement of security
parameters such as minimum security strength of keys.
Spoiler: ENABLE-FUZZ-LIBFUZZER, ENABLE-FUZZ-AFL
### enable-fuzz-libfuzzer, enable-fuzz-afl
Build with support for fuzzing using either libfuzzer or AFL.
These are developer options only. They may not work on all platforms and
should never be used in production environments.
See the file [fuzz/README.md](fuzz/README.md) for further details.
Spoiler: NO-GOST
### no-gost
Don't build support for GOST based ciphersuites.
Note that if this feature is enabled then GOST ciphersuites are only available
if the GOST algorithms are also available through loading an externally supplied
engine.
Spoiler: NO-LEGACY
### no-legacy
Don't build the legacy provider.
Disabling this also disables the legacy algorithms: MD2 (already disabled by default).
Spoiler: NO-MAKEDEPEND
### no-makedepend
Don't generate dependencies.
Spoiler: NO-MODULE
### no-module
Don't build any dynamically loadable engines.
This also implies `no-dynamic-engine`.
Spoiler: NO-MULTIBLOCK
### no-multiblock
Don't build support for writing multiple records in one go in libssl
Note: this is a different capability to the pipelining functionality.
Spoiler: NO-NEXTPROTONEG
### no-nextprotoneg
Don't build support for the Next Protocol Negotiation (NPN) TLS extension.
Spoiler: NO-OCSP
### no-ocsp
Don't build support for Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP).
Spoiler: NO-PADLOCKENG
### no-padlockeng
Don't build the padlock engine.
Spoiler: NO-HW-PADLOCK
### no-hw-padlock
As synonym for `no-padlockeng`. Deprecated and should not be used.
Spoiler: NO-PIC
### no-pic
Don't build with support for Position Independent Code.
Spoiler: NO-PINSHARED
### no-pinshared
Don't pin the shared libraries.
By default OpenSSL will attempt to stay in memory until the process exits.
This is so that libcrypto and libssl can be properly cleaned up automatically
via an `atexit()` handler. The handler is registered by libcrypto and cleans
up both libraries. On some platforms the `atexit()` handler will run on unload of
libcrypto (if it has been dynamically loaded) rather than at process exit. This
option can be used to stop OpenSSL from attempting to stay in memory until the
process exits. This could lead to crashes if either libcrypto or libssl have
already been unloaded at the point that the atexit handler is invoked, e.g. on a
platform which calls `atexit()` on unload of the library, and libssl is unloaded
before libcrypto then a crash is likely to happen. Applications can suppress
running of the `atexit()` handler at run time by using the
`OPENSSL_INIT_NO_ATEXIT` option to `OPENSSL_init_crypto()`.
See the man page for it for further details.
Spoiler: NO-POSIX-IO
### no-posix-io
Don't use POSIX IO capabilities.
Spoiler: NO-PSK
### no-psk
Don't build support for Pre-Shared Key based ciphersuites.
Spoiler: NO-RDRAND
### no-rdrand
Don't use hardware RDRAND capabilities.
Spoiler: NO-RFC3779
### no-rfc3779
Don't build support for RFC3779, "X.509 Extensions for IP Addresses and
AS Identifiers".
Spoiler: SCTP
### sctp
Build support for Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP).
Spoiler: NO-SHARED
### no-shared
Do not create shared libraries, only static ones.
See [Notes on shared libraries](#notes-on-shared-libraries) below.
Spoiler: NO-SOCK
### no-sock
Don't build support for socket BIOs.
Spoiler: NO-SRP
### no-srp
Don't build support for Secure Remote Password (SRP) protocol or
SRP based ciphersuites.
Spoiler: NO-SRTP
### no-srtp
Don't build Secure Real-Time Transport Protocol (SRTP) support.
Spoiler: NO-SSE2
### no-sse2
Exclude SSE2 code paths from 32-bit x86 assembly modules.
Normally SSE2 extension is detected at run-time, but the decision whether or not
the machine code will be executed is taken solely on CPU capability vector. This
means that if you happen to run OS kernel which does not support SSE2 extension
on Intel P4 processor, then your application might be exposed to "illegal
instruction" exception. There might be a way to enable support in kernel, e.g.
FreeBSD kernel can be compiled with `CPU_ENABLE_SSE`, and there is a way to
disengage SSE2 code paths upon application start-up, but if you aim for wider
"audience" running such kernel, consider `no-sse2`. Both the `386` and `no-asm`
options imply `no-sse2`.
Spoiler: NO-SSL-TRACE
### no-ssl-trace
Don't build with SSL Trace capabilities.
This removes the `-trace` option from `s_client` and `s_server`, and omits the
`SSL_trace()` function from libssl.
Disabling `ssl-trace` may provide a small reduction in libssl binary size.
Spoiler: NO-STATIC-ENGINE
### no-static-engine
Don't build the statically linked engines.
This only has an impact when not built "shared".
Spoiler: NO-STDIO
### no-stdio
Don't use anything from the C header file `stdio.h` that makes use of the `FILE`
type. Only libcrypto and libssl can be built in this way. Using this option will
suppress building the command line applications. Additionally, since the OpenSSL
tests also use the command line applications, the tests will also be skipped.
Spoiler: NO-TESTS
### no-tests
Don't build test programs or run any tests.
Spoiler: NO-THREADS
### no-threads
Don't build with support for multi-threaded applications.
Spoiler: THREADS
### threads
Build with support for multi-threaded applications. Most platforms will enable
this by default. However, if on a platform where this is not the case then this
will usually require additional system-dependent options!
See [Notes on multi-threading](#notes-on-multi-threading) below.
Spoiler: ENABLE-TRACE
### enable-trace
Build with support for the integrated tracing api.
See manual pages OSSL_trace_set_channel(3) and OSSL_trace_enabled(3) for details.
Spoiler: NO-TS
### no-ts
Don't build Time Stamping (TS) Authority support.
Spoiler: ENABLE-UBSAN
### enable-ubsan
Build with the Undefined Behaviour sanitiser (UBSAN).
This is a developer option only. It may not work on all platforms and should
never be used in production environments. It will only work when used with
gcc or clang and should be used in conjunction with the `-DPEDANTIC` option
(or the `--strict-warnings` option).
Spoiler: NO-UI-CONSOLE
### no-ui-console
Don't build with the User Interface (UI) console method
The User Interface console method enables text based console prompts.
Spoiler: ENABLE-UNIT-TEST
### enable-unit-test
Enable additional unit test APIs.
This should not typically be used in production deployments.
Spoiler: NO-UPLINK
### no-uplink
Don't build support for UPLINK interface.
Spoiler: ENABLE-WEAK-SSL-CIPHERS
### enable-weak-ssl-ciphers
Build support for SSL/TLS ciphers that are considered "weak"
Enabling this includes for example the RC4 based ciphersuites.
Spoiler: ZLIB
### zlib
Build with support for zlib compression/decompression.
Spoiler: ZLIB-DYNAMIC
### zlib-dynamic
Like the zlib option, but has OpenSSL load the zlib library dynamically
when needed.
This is only supported on systems where loading of shared libraries is supported.
Spoiler: 386
### 386
In 32-bit x86 builds, use the 80386 instruction set only in assembly modules
The default x86 code is more efficient, but requires at least an 486 processor.
Note: This doesn't affect compiler generated code, so this option needs to be
accompanied by a corresponding compiler-specific option.
Spoiler: NO-{PROTOCOL}
### no-{protocol}
no-{ssl|ssl3|tls|tls1|tls1_1|tls1_2|tls1_3|dtls|dtls1|dtls1_2}
Don't build support for negotiating the specified SSL/TLS protocol.
If `no-tls` is selected then all of `tls1`, `tls1_1`, `tls1_2` and `tls1_3`
are disabled.
Similarly `no-dtls` will disable `dtls1` and `dtls1_2`. The `no-ssl` option is
synonymous with `no-ssl3`. Note this only affects version negotiation.
OpenSSL will still provide the methods for applications to explicitly select
the individual protocol versions.
Spoiler: NO-{PROTOCOL}-METHOD
### no-{protocol}-method
no-{ssl|ssl3|tls|tls1|tls1_1|tls1_2|tls1_3|dtls|dtls1|dtls1_2}-method
Analogous to `no-{protocol}` but in addition do not build the methods for
applications to explicitly select individual protocol versions. Note that there
is no `no-tls1_3-method` option because there is no application method for
TLSv1.3.
Using individual protocol methods directly is deprecated. Applications should
use `TLS_method()` instead.

Build without support for the specified algorithm.
The `ripemd` algorithm is deprecated and if used is synonymous with `rmd160`.
Spoiler: COMPILER-SPECIFIC OPTIONS
### Compiler-specific options
-Dxxx, -Ixxx, -Wp, -lxxx, -Lxxx, -Wl, -rpath, -R, -framework, -static
These system specific options will be recognised and passed through to the
compiler to allow you to define preprocessor symbols, specify additional
libraries, library directories or other compiler options. It might be worth
noting that some compilers generate code specifically for processor the
compiler currently executes on. This is not necessarily what you might have
in mind, since it might be unsuitable for execution on other, typically older,
processor. Consult your compiler documentation.
Take note of the [Environment Variables](#environment-variables) documentation
below and how these flags interact with those variables.
-xxx, +xxx, /xxx
Additional options that are not otherwise recognised are passed through as
they are to the compiler as well. Unix-style options beginning with a
`-` or `+` and Windows-style options beginning with a `/` are recognized.
Again, consult your compiler documentation.
If the option contains arguments separated by spaces, then the URL-style
notation `%20` can be used for the space character in order to avoid having
to quote the option. For example, `-opt%20arg` gets expanded to `-opt arg`.
In fact, any ASCII character can be encoded as %xx using its hexadecimal
encoding.
Take note of the [Environment Variables](#environment-variables) documentation
below and how these flags interact with those variables.
Spoiler: ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
### Environment Variables
VAR=value
Assign the given value to the environment variable `VAR` for `Configure`.
These work just like normal environment variable assignments, but are supported
on all platforms and are confined to the configuration scripts only.
These assignments override the corresponding value in the inherited environment,
if there is one.
Spoiler: MAKE VARIABLES
The following variables are used as "`make` variables" and can be used as an
alternative to giving preprocessor, compiler and linker options directly as
configuration. The following variables are supported:
AR The static library archiver.
ARFLAGS Flags for the static library archiver.
AS The assembler compiler.
ASFLAGS Flags for the assembler compiler.
CC The C compiler.
CFLAGS Flags for the C compiler.
CXX The C++ compiler.
CXXFLAGS Flags for the C++ compiler.
CPP The C/C++ preprocessor.
CPPFLAGS Flags for the C/C++ preprocessor.
CPPDEFINES List of CPP macro definitions, separated
by a platform specific character (':' or
space for Unix, ';' for Windows, ',' for
VMS). This can be used instead of using
-D (or what corresponds to that on your
compiler) in CPPFLAGS.
CPPINCLUDES List of CPP inclusion directories, separated
the same way as for CPPDEFINES. This can
be used instead of -I (or what corresponds
to that on your compiler) in CPPFLAGS.
HASHBANGPERL Perl invocation to be inserted after '#!'
in public perl scripts (only relevant on
Unix).
LD The program linker (not used on Unix, $(CC)
is used there).
LDFLAGS Flags for the shared library, DSO and
program linker.
LDLIBS Extra libraries to use when linking.
Takes the form of a space separated list
of library specifications on Unix and
Windows, and as a comma separated list of
libraries on VMS.
RANLIB The library archive indexer.
RC The Windows resource compiler.
RCFLAGS Flags for the Windows resource compiler.
RM The command to remove files and directories.
These cannot be mixed with compiling/linking flags given on the command line.
In other words, something like this isn't permitted.
$ ./Configure -DFOO CPPFLAGS=-DBAR -DCOOKIE
Spoiler: BACKWARD COMPATABILITY
Backward compatibility note:
To be compatible with older configuration scripts, the environment variables
are ignored if compiling/linking flags are given on the command line, except
for the following:
AR, CC, CXX, CROSS_COMPILE, HASHBANGPERL, PERL, RANLIB, RC, and WINDRES
For example, the following command will not see `-DBAR`:
$ CPPFLAGS=-DBAR ./Configure -DCOOKIE
However, the following will see both set variables:
$ CC=gcc CROSS_COMPILE=x86_64-w64-mingw32- ./Configure -DCOOKIE
If `CC` is set, it is advisable to also set `CXX` to ensure both the C and C++
compiler are in the same "family". This becomes relevant with
`enable-external-tests` and `enable-buildtest-c++`.
Spoiler: RECONFIGURE
### Reconfigure
reconf
reconfigure
Reconfigure from earlier data.
This fetches the previous command line options and environment from data
saved in `configdata.pm` and runs the configuration process again, using
these options and environment. Note: NO other option is permitted together
with `reconf`. Note: The original configuration saves away values for ALL
environment variables that were used, and if they weren't defined, they are
still saved away with information that they weren't originally defined.
This information takes precedence over environment variables that are
defined when reconfiguring.
Spoiler: DISPLAYING CONFIGURATION DATA
The configuration script itself will say very little, and finishes by
creating `configdata.pm`. This perl module can be loaded by other scripts
to find all the configuration data, and it can also be used as a script to
display all sorts of configuration data in a human readable form.
For more information, please do:
$ ./configdata.pm --help # Unix
or
$ perl configdata.pm --help # Windows and VMS
Spoiler: INSTALLATION STEPS IN DETAIL
Spoiler: CONFIGURE OPENSSL
Spoiler: AUTOMATIC CONFIGURATION
In previous version, the `config` script determined the platform type and
compiler and then called `Configure`. Starting with this release, they are
the same.
Spoiler: LINUX MAC
$ ./Configure [options...]
Spoiler: OPENVMS
$ perl Configure [options...]
Spoiler: WINDOWS
$ perl Configure [options...]
Spoiler: MANUAL CONFIGURATION
OpenSSL knows about a range of different operating system, hardware and
compiler combinations. To see the ones it knows about, run
$ ./Configure LIST # Unix
or
$ perl Configure LIST # All other platforms
Spoiler: UNIX
For the remainder of this text, the Unix form will be used in all examples.
Please use the appropriate form for your platform.
Pick a suitable name from the list that matches your system. For most
operating systems there is a choice between using cc or gcc.
When you have identified your system (and if necessary compiler) use this
name as the argument to `Configure`. For example, a `linux-elf` user would
run:
$ ./Configure linux-elf [options...]
Spoiler: CREATE YOUR OWN CONFIGURATION
If your system isn't listed, you will have to create a configuration
file named `Configurations/YOURFILENAME.conf` (replace `YOURFILENAME`
with a filename of your choosing) and add the correct
configuration for your system. See the available configs as examples
and read [Configurations/README.md](Configurations/README.md) and
[Configurations/README-design.md](Configurations/README-design.md)
for more information.
The generic configurations `cc` or `gcc` should usually work on 32 bit
Unix-like systems.
`Configure` creates a build file (`Makefile` on Unix, `makefile` on Windows
and `descrip.mms` on OpenVMS) from a suitable template in `Configurations/`,
and defines various macros in `include/openssl/configuration.h` (generated
from `include/openssl/configuration.h.in`.
Spoiler: OUT OF TREE BUILDS
OpenSSL can be configured to build in a build directory separate from the
source code directory. It's done by placing yourself in some other
directory and invoking the configuration commands from there.
Spoiler: UNIX
$ mkdir /var/tmp/openssl-build
$ cd /var/tmp/openssl-build
$ /PATH/TO/OPENSSL/SOURCE/Configure [options...]
Spoiler: OPENVMS
$ set default sys$login:
$ create/dir [.tmp.openssl-build]
$ set default [.tmp.openssl-build]
$ perl D:[PATH.TO.OPENSSL.SOURCE]Configure [options...]
Spoiler: WINDOWS
$ C:
$ mkdir \temp-openssl
$ cd \temp-openssl
$ perl d:\PATH\TO\OPENSSL\SOURCE\Configure [options...]
Paths can be relative just as well as absolute. `Configure` will do its best
to translate them to relative paths whenever possible.
Spoiler: BUILD OPENSSL
Build OpenSSL by running:
$ make # Unix
$ mms ! (or mmk) OpenVMS
$ nmake # Windows
This will build the OpenSSL libraries (`libcrypto.a` and `libssl.a` on
Unix, corresponding on other platforms) and the OpenSSL binary
(`openssl`). The libraries will be built in the top-level directory,
and the binary will be in the `apps/` subdirectory.
If the build fails, take a look at the [Build Failures](#build-failures)
subsection of the [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting) section.
Spoiler: TEST OPENSSL
After a successful build, and before installing, the libraries should
be tested. Run:
$ make test # Unix
$ mms test ! OpenVMS
$ nmake test # Windows
**Warning:** you MUST run the tests from an unprivileged account (or disable
your privileges temporarily if your platform allows it).
See [test/README.md](test/README.md) for further details how run tests.
See [test/README-dev.md](test/README-dev.md) for guidelines on adding tests.
Spoiler: INSTALL OPENSSL
If everything tests ok, install OpenSSL with
$ make install # Unix
$ mms install ! OpenVMS
$ nmake install # Windows
Note that in order to perform the install step above you need to have
appropriate permissions to write to the installation directory.
The above commands will install all the software components in this
directory tree under `<PREFIX>` (the directory given with `--prefix` or
its default):
Spoiler: UNIX LINUX MAC
bin/ Contains the openssl binary and a few other
utility scripts.
include/openssl
Contains the header files needed if you want
to build your own programs that use libcrypto
or libssl.
lib Contains the OpenSSL library files.
lib/engines Contains the OpenSSL dynamically loadable engines.
share/man/man1 Contains the OpenSSL command line man-pages.
share/man/man3 Contains the OpenSSL library calls man-pages.

Spoiler: OPENVMS
'arch' is replaced with the architecture name, `ALPHA` or `IA64`,
'sover' is replaced with the shared library version (`0101` for 1.1), and
'pz' is replaced with the pointer size OpenSSL was built with:
[.EXE.'arch'] Contains the openssl binary.
[.EXE] Contains a few utility scripts.
[.include.openssl]
Contains the header files needed if you want
to build your own programs that use libcrypto
or libssl.
[.LIB.'arch'] Contains the OpenSSL library files.
[.ENGINES'sover''pz'.'arch']
Contains the OpenSSL dynamically loadable engines.
[.SYS$STARTUP] Contains startup, login and shutdown scripts.
These define appropriate logical names and
command symbols.
[.SYSTEST] Contains the installation verification procedure.
[.HTML] Contains the HTML rendition of the manual pages.
Spoiler: ADDITIONAL DIRECTORIES
Additionally, install will add the following directories under
OPENSSLDIR (the directory given with `--openssldir` or its default)
for you convenience:
certs Initially empty, this is the default location
for certificate files.
private Initially empty, this is the default location
for private key files.
misc Various scripts.
The installation directory should be appropriately protected to ensure
unprivileged users cannot make changes to OpenSSL binaries or files, or
install engines. If you already have a pre-installed version of OpenSSL as
part of your Operating System it is recommended that you do not overwrite
the system version and instead install to somewhere else.
Package builders who want to configure the library for standard locations,
but have the package installed somewhere else so that it can easily be
packaged, can use
$ make DESTDIR=/tmp/package-root install # Unix
$ mms/macro="DESTDIR=TMP:[PACKAGE-ROOT]" install ! OpenVMS
The specified destination directory will be prepended to all installation
target paths.
Spoiler: COMPATABILITY ISSUES WITH PREVIOUS OPENSSL VERSIONS
Compiling Existing Applications
Starting with version 1.1.0, OpenSSL hides a number of structures that were
previously open. This includes all internal libssl structures and a number
of EVP types. Accessor functions have been added to allow controlled access
to the structures' data.
This means that some software needs to be rewritten to adapt to the new ways
of doing things. This often amounts to allocating an instance of a structure
explicitly where you could previously allocate them on the stack as automatic
variables, and using the provided accessor functions where you would previously
access a structure's field directly.
Some APIs have changed as well. However, older APIs have been preserved when
possible.
Spoiler: POST-INSTALLATION NOTES
With the default OpenSSL installation comes a FIPS provider module, which
needs some post-installation attention, without which it will not be usable.
This involves using the following command:
$ openssl fipsinstall
See the openssl-fipsinstall(1) manual for details and examples.
Spoiler: ADVANCED BUILD OPTIONS
Spoiler: ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
Environment Variables
---------------------
A number of environment variables can be used to provide additional control
over the build process. Typically these should be defined prior to running
`Configure`. Not all environment variables are relevant to all platforms.
Spoiler: AR
AR
The name of the ar executable to use.
Spoiler: BUILDFILE
BUILDFILE
Use a different build file name than the platform default
("Makefile" on Unix-like platforms, "makefile" on native Windows,
"descrip.mms" on OpenVMS). This requires that there is a
corresponding build file template.
See [Configurations/README.md](Configurations/README.md)
for further information.
Spoiler: CC
CC
The compiler to use. Configure will attempt to pick a default
compiler for your platform but this choice can be overridden
using this variable. Set it to the compiler executable you wish
to use, e.g. gcc or clang.
Spoiler: CROSS_COMPILE
CROSS_COMPILE
This environment variable has the same meaning as for the
"--cross-compile-prefix" Configure flag described above. If both
are set then the Configure flag takes precedence.
Spoiler: HASHBANGPERL
HASHBANGPERL
The command string for the Perl executable to insert in the
#! line of perl scripts that will be publicly installed.
Default: /usr/bin/env perl
Note: the value of this variable is added to the same scripts
on all platforms, but it's only relevant on Unix-like platforms.
Spoiler: KERNEL_BITS
KERNEL_BITS
This can be the value `32` or `64` to specify the architecture
when it is not "obvious" to the configuration. It should generally
not be necessary to specify this environment variable.
Spoiler: NM
NM
The name of the nm executable to use.
Spoiler: OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR
OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR
OpenSSL comes with a database of information about how it
should be built on different platforms as well as build file
templates for those platforms. The database is comprised of
".conf" files in the Configurations directory. The build
file templates reside there as well as ".tmpl" files. See the
file [Configurations/README.md](Configurations/README.md)
for further information about the format of ".conf" files
as well as information on the ".tmpl" files.
In addition to the standard ".conf" and ".tmpl" files, it is
possible to create your own ".conf" and ".tmpl" files and
store them locally, outside the OpenSSL source tree.
This environment variable can be set to the directory where
these files are held and will be considered by Configure
before it looks in the standard directories.
Spoiler: PERL
PERL
The name of the Perl executable to use when building OpenSSL.
Only needed if builing should use a different Perl executable
than what is used to run the Configure script.
Spoiler: RANLIB
RANLIB
The name of the ranlib executable to use.
Spoiler: RC
RC
The name of the rc executable to use. The default will be as
defined for the target platform in the ".conf" file. If not
defined then "windres" will be used. The WINDRES environment
variable is synonymous to this. If both are defined then RC
takes precedence.
Spoiler: WINDRES
WINDRES
See RC.
Spoiler: MAKEFILE TARGETS
The `Configure` script generates a Makefile in a format relevant to the specific
platform. The Makefiles provide a number of targets that can be used. Not all
targets may be available on all platforms. Only the most common targets are
described here. Examine the Makefiles themselves for the full list.
Spoiler: ALL
all
The target to build all the software components and
documentation.
Spoiler: BUILD_SW
build_sw
Build all the software components.
THIS IS THE DEFAULT TARGET.
Spoiler: BUILD_DOCS
build_docs
Build all documentation components.
Spoiler: CLEAN
clean
Remove all build artefacts and return the directory to a "clean"
state.
Spoiler: DEPEND
depend
Rebuild the dependencies in the Makefiles. This is a legacy
option that no longer needs to be used since OpenSSL 1.1.0.
Spoiler: INSTALL
install
Install all OpenSSL components.
Spoiler: INSTALL_SW
install_sw
Only install the OpenSSL software components.
Spoiler: INSTALL_DOCS
install_docs
Only install the OpenSSL documentation components.
Spoiler: INSTALL_MAN_DOCS
install_man_docs
Only install the OpenSSL man pages (Unix only).
Spoiler: INSTALL_HTML_DOCS
install_html_docs
Only install the OpenSSL HTML documentation.
Spoiler: INSTALL_FIPS
install_fips
Install the FIPS provider module configuration file.
Spoiler: LIST-TESTS
list-tests
Prints a list of all the self test names.
Spoiler: TEST
test
Build and run the OpenSSL self tests.
Spoiler: UNINSTALL
uninstall
Uninstall all OpenSSL components.
Spoiler: RECONFIGURE
reconf
Re-run the configuration process, as exactly as the last time
as possible.
Spoiler: UPDATE
update
This is a developer option. If you are developing a patch for
OpenSSL you may need to use this if you want to update
automatically generated files; add new error codes or add new
(or change the visibility of) public API functions. (Unix only).
Spoiler: RUNNING SELECTED TESTS
You can specify a set of tests to be performed
using the `make` variable `TESTS`.
See the section [Running Selected Tests of
test/README.md](test/README.md#running-selected-tests).
Spoiler: TROUBLESHOOTING
Spoiler: CONFIGURATION PROBLEMS
### Selecting the correct target
The `./Configure` script tries hard to guess your operating system, but in some
cases it does not succeed. You will see a message like the following:
$ ./Configure
Operating system: x86-whatever-minix
This system (minix) is not supported. See file INSTALL.md for details.
Even if the automatic target selection by the `./Configure` script fails,
chances are that you still might find a suitable target in the `Configurations`
directory, which you can supply to the `./Configure` command,
possibly after some adjustment.
The `Configurations/` directory contains a lot of examples of such targets.
The main configuration file is [10-main.conf], which contains all targets that
are officially supported by the OpenSSL team. Other configuration files contain
targets contributed by other OpenSSL users. The list of targets can be found in
a Perl list `my %targets = ( ... )`.
my %targets = (
...
"target-name" => {
inherit_from => [ "base-target" ],
CC => "...",
cflags => add("..."),
asm_arch => '...',
perlasm_scheme => "...",
},
...
)
If you call `./Configure` without arguments, it will give you a list of all
known targets. Using `grep`, you can lookup the target definition in the
`Configurations/` directory. For example the `android-x86_64` can be found in
[Configurations/15-android.conf](Configurations/15-android.conf).
The directory contains two README files, which explain the general syntax and
design of the configuration files.
- [Configurations/README.md](Configurations/README.md)
- [Configurations/README-design.md](Configurations/README-design.md)
If you need further help, try to search the [openssl-users] mailing list
or the [GitHub Issues] for existing solutions. If you don't find anything,
you can [raise an issue] to ask a question yourself.
More about our support resources can be found in the [SUPPORT] file.
Spoiler: CONFIGURATION ERRORS
If the `./Configure` or `./Configure` command fails with an error message,
read the error message carefully and try to figure out whether you made
a mistake (e.g., by providing a wrong option), or whether the script is
working incorrectly. If you think you encountered a bug, please
[raise an issue] on GitHub to file a bug report.
Along with a short description of the bug, please provide the complete
configure command line and the relevant output including the error message.
Note: To make the output readable, please add a 'code fence' (three backquotes
` ``` ` on a separate line) before and after your output:
```
./Configure [your arguments...]
[output...]
```
Spoiler: BUILD FAILURES
If the build fails, look carefully at the output. Try to locate and understand
the error message. It might be that the compiler is already telling you
exactly what you need to do to fix your problem.
There may be reasons for the failure that aren't problems in OpenSSL itself,
for example if the compiler reports missing standard or third party headers.
If the build succeeded previously, but fails after a source or configuration
change, it might be helpful to clean the build tree before attempting another
build. Use this command:
$ make clean # Unix
$ mms clean ! (or mmk) OpenVMS
$ nmake clean # Windows
Assembler error messages can sometimes be sidestepped by using the `no-asm`
configuration option. See also [notes](#notes-on-assembler-modules-compilation).
Compiling parts of OpenSSL with gcc and others with the system compiler will
result in unresolved symbols on some systems.
If you are still having problems, try to search the [openssl-users] mailing
list or the [GitHub Issues] for existing solutions. If you think you
encountered an OpenSSL bug, please [raise an issue] to file a bug report.
Please take the time to review the existing issues first; maybe the bug was
already reported or has already been fixed.
Spoiler: TEST FAILURES
If some tests fail, look at the output. There may be reasons for the failure
that isn't a problem in OpenSSL itself (like an OS malfunction or a Perl issue).
You may want increased verbosity, that can be accomplished as described in
section [Test Failures of test/README.md](test/README.md#test-failures).
You may also want to selectively specify which test(s) to perform. This can be
done using the `make` variable `TESTS` as described in section [Running
Selected Tests of test/README.md](test/README.md#running-selected-tests).
If you find a problem with OpenSSL itself, try removing any
compiler optimization flags from the `CFLAGS` line in the Makefile and
run `make clean; make` or corresponding.
To report a bug please open an issue on GitHub, at
<https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues>.
Spoiler: NOTES
Spoiler: MULTITHREADING
For some systems, the OpenSSL `Configure` script knows what compiler options
are needed to generate a library that is suitable for multi-threaded
applications. On these systems, support for multi-threading is enabled
by default; use the `no-threads` option to disable (this should never be
necessary).
On other systems, to enable support for multi-threading, you will have
to specify at least two options: `threads`, and a system-dependent option.
(The latter is `-D_REENTRANT` on various systems.) The default in this
case, obviously, is not to include support for multi-threading (but
you can still use `no-threads` to suppress an annoying warning message
from the `Configure` script.)
OpenSSL provides built-in support for two threading models: pthreads (found on
most UNIX/Linux systems), and Windows threads. No other threading models are
supported. If your platform does not provide pthreads or Windows threads then
you should use `Configure` with the `no-threads` option.
For pthreads, all locks are non-recursive. In addition, in a debug build,
the mutex attribute `PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK` is used. If this is not
available on your platform, you might have to add
`-DOPENSSL_NO_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK` to your `Configure` invocation.
(On Linux `PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK` is an enum value, so a built-in
ifdef test cannot be used.)
Spoiler: SHARED LIBRARIES
For most systems the OpenSSL `Configure` script knows what is needed to
build shared libraries for libcrypto and libssl. On these systems
the shared libraries will be created by default. This can be suppressed and
only static libraries created by using the `no-shared` option. On systems
where OpenSSL does not know how to build shared libraries the `no-shared`
option will be forced and only static libraries will be created.
Shared libraries are named a little differently on different platforms.
One way or another, they all have the major OpenSSL version number as
part of the file name, i.e. for OpenSSL 1.1.x, `1.1` is somehow part of
the name.
On most POSIX platforms, shared libraries are named `libcrypto.so.1.1`
and `libssl.so.1.1`.
on Cygwin, shared libraries are named `cygcrypto-1.1.dll` and `cygssl-1.1.dll`
with import libraries `libcrypto.dll.a` and `libssl.dll.a`.
On Windows build with MSVC or using MingW, shared libraries are named
`libcrypto-1_1.dll` and `libssl-1_1.dll` for 32-bit Windows,
`libcrypto-1_1-x64.dll` and `libssl-1_1-x64.dll` for 64-bit x86_64 Windows,
and `libcrypto-1_1-ia64.dll` and `libssl-1_1-ia64.dll` for IA64 Windows.
With MSVC, the import libraries are named `libcrypto.lib` and `libssl.lib`,
while with MingW, they are named `libcrypto.dll.a` and `libssl.dll.a`.
On VMS, shareable images (VMS speak for shared libraries) are named
`ossl$libcrypto0101_shr.exe` and `ossl$libssl0101_shr.exe`. However, when
OpenSSL is specifically built for 32-bit pointers, the shareable images
are named `ossl$libcrypto0101_shr32.exe` and `ossl$libssl0101_shr32.exe`
instead, and when built for 64-bit pointers, they are named
`ossl$libcrypto0101_shr64.exe` and `ossl$libssl0101_shr64.exe`.
Spoiler: RANDOM NUMBER GENERATION
Availability of cryptographically secure random numbers is required for
secret key generation. OpenSSL provides several options to seed the
internal CSPRNG. If not properly seeded, the internal CSPRNG will refuse
to deliver random bytes and a "PRNG not seeded error" will occur.
The seeding method can be configured using the `--with-rand-seed` option,
which can be used to specify a comma separated list of seed methods.
However, in most cases OpenSSL will choose a suitable default method,
so it is not necessary to explicitly provide this option. Note also
that not all methods are available on all platforms. The FIPS provider will
silently ignore seed sources that were not validated.
I) On operating systems which provide a suitable randomness source (in
form of a system call or system device), OpenSSL will use the optimal
available method to seed the CSPRNG from the operating system's
randomness sources. This corresponds to the option `--with-rand-seed=os`.
II) On systems without such a suitable randomness source, automatic seeding
and reseeding is disabled (`--with-rand-seed=none`) and it may be necessary
to install additional support software to obtain a random seed and reseed
the CSPRNG manually. Please check out the manual pages for `RAND_add()`,
`RAND_bytes()`, `RAND_egd()`, and the FAQ for more information.
Spoiler: ASSEMBLER MODULES COMPILATION
Compilation of some code paths in assembler modules might depend on whether the
current assembler version supports certain ISA extensions or not. Code paths
that use the AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, SSSE3, and SHA extensions are always assembled.
Apart from that, the minimum requirements for the assembler versions are shown
in the table below:
| ISA extension | GNU as | nasm | llvm |
|---------------|--------|--------|---------|
| AVX | 2.19 | 2.09 | 3.0 |
| AVX2 | 2.22 | 2.10 | 3.1 |
| ADCX/ADOX | 2.23 | 2.10 | 3.3 |
| AVX512 | 2.25 | 2.11.8 | 3.6 (*) |
| AVX512IFMA | 2.26 | 2.11.8 | 6.0 (*) |
| VAES | 2.30 | 2.13.3 | 6.0 (*) |
---
(*) Even though AVX512 support was implemented in llvm 3.6, prior to version 7.0
an explicit -march flag was apparently required to compile assembly modules. But
then the compiler generates processor-specific code, which in turn contradicts
the idea of performing dispatch at run-time, which is facilitated by the special
variable `OPENSSL_ia32cap`. For versions older than 7.0, it is possible to work
around the problem by forcing the build procedure to use the following script:
#!/bin/sh
exec clang -no-integrated-as "[email protected]"
instead of the real clang. In which case it doesn't matter what clang version
is used, as it is the version of the GNU assembler that will be checked.

you need to run and develop perl applications. It is designed to be as close
as possible to perl environment on UNIX systems. See http://strawberryperl.com/
* If you are completely new to perl consider visiting http://learn.perl.org/
Spoiler: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
* If installing this version from a .zip file, you MUST extract it to a
directory that does not have spaces in it - e.g. c:\myperl\
and then run some commands and manually set some environment variables:
c:\myperl\relocation.pl.bat ... this is REQUIRED!
c:\myperl\update_env.pl.bat ... this is OPTIONAL
You can specify " --nosystem" after update_env.pl.bat to install Strawberry
Perl's environment variables for the current user only.
* If having a fixed installation path does not suit you, try "Strawberry Perl
Portable Edition" from http://strawberryperl.com/releases.html
Spoiler: HOW TO USE STRAWBERRY PERL
* In the command prompt window you can:
1. run any perl script by launching
c:\> perl c:\path\to\script.pl
2. install additional perl modules (libraries) from http://www.cpan.org/ by
c:\> cpan Module::Name
3. run other tools included in Strawberry Perl like: perldoc, gcc, gmake ...
* You'll need a text editor to create perl scripts. One is NOT included with
Strawberry Perl. A few options are Padre (which can be installed by running
"cpan Padre" from the command prompt) and Notepad++ (which is downloadable at
http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ ) which both include syntax highlighting
for perl scripts. You can even use Notepad, if you wish.

What are OpenSSL BIOs? How do they work? How are BIOs used in OpenSSL?
I need some general information about OpenSSL BIO. Some kind of introduction to it. What is OpenSSL BIO? What is its general idea? I know that it is some kind of API for input/output. But how is it
stackoverflow.com
I finally did it~! Took me forever to figure out such simple things but my openssl toolset I'm sharing with y'all is portable and works out the gate :> all open source but mingw requires you keep their sources if you are interested in redistributing~!
Spoiler: SUCESSIO
And now through all this reinventing of the wheel~! I know what Chocolatey Is and Is used for~! I will figure this out better now haha.
Installing Chocolatey
Chocolatey is software management automation for Windows that wraps installers, executables, zips, and scripts into compiled packages. Chocolatey integrates w/SCCM, Puppet, Chef, etc. Chocolatey is trusted by businesses to manage software deployments.

This package has been Blocked By Content Filtering On Some Browsers Or Even ISPs~!
I would say it's because The Shadow Corporations want to keep the code slaves on their IDE's but I digress...~~!
This is Mostly a Joke~! Mostly... ;-]
oMG Chocolatey was SO MUCH EASIER. I finally created my certificate; I'm going to sign my driver~! And whether or not it fixes the problem we will see. Regardless this has been a fun exercise and I will post a video with a visual example on my future chocolatey thread, about what I learned about IDEs, "Programming Languages", package installation on windows, system environment variables, etc~! Hopefully I will explain it in a way that makes sense
Something you should be aware of when using open source software, is that, even though it's free and states that you can use it in your own, Developed, Software, you absolutely must read the licences, readmes, and documentation, for sharing the work!
A GNU case, evidenced, that asks of, software developers, on freeware, can be enforced in court~!
Do your due diligence and read what the software providers add in text form for us because they did a lot of work for us to bring us what they do

is Notepad++ superior to sublime??

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I will always be honest, I am Learning, So I do Not know~! What I advise is to try them both,, and learn the differences or "nuances" between the systems, so we can tell each other why we feel a certain way toward a certain program~! I will try out sublime now as I remember hearing about it years and years ago, but I wasn't at a basic enough level to understand what all of this is for.
Thank you for sharing this program with us~!
Thanks for this information. I will try it soon.
I think Notepad++ is the best free tool to help coding.
This is my opinion.
This video explains in super detail more about certificates, in ways I didn't even think of, in relation to man in the middle attacks on everyday websites we use.

Hello there. I wanted to share a link to a thread that "chains together" with this Thread. It is relating to Android Verified Boot which is a means of cryptographically protecting images. I am still learning so I will add links on that thread with interesting things. Notably the repository is available, there is a literal college thesis investigative study 33 pages, some good talks to listen to in the background and other things. Anyway it's here if anyone is interested
Learning About AVB Android Verified Boot (Boot.img dtb.img, vbmeta.img, and the "staging blob")
Edit-- after studying a couple days I understand why no modification to the images would work, which is due to AVB. I have a lot more studying to do and I will explain better. This thread is currently a mess of notes from a noob picking a kind...

Oh and this is a subtle callout if anyone knows anything about avb please share on that thread. I am absolutely fascinated with this now and whelp... rabbit holes.

Question Windows 11 doesn't remember folder settings

Windows 11 how do I make all files and folders appear as General items and always sorted by date modified and detailed view?
I'm doing the usual ways through file options, but it doesn't work.
In all folders and for some reason it doesn't remember what settings I saved. Is there a way or reg file to make it sealed in the system and that can't be changed?
Chat gpt gave this yet to try ( didn't worked )
Spoiler: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

"LogicalViewMode"=dword:00000001
"Mode"=dword:00000004
"SortColumn"="prop:System.DateModified"
"SortOrder"="dword:00000001"
Also when win+e it opens home and there are a bunch of things and it slows down, there is a change button to open my computer but it also changes back
When I press saved shortcuts favorites on the left side of the Quick access toolbar, it finds the folder it is in and the view jumps down, and every time I have to scroll up again and again each time I press any favorite.
And when, for example, I need to select a file to upload somewhere, it also does not save the settings and every time hell need yi change the view manually
Please help to sort these problems
Thanks
chat gpt gave this script for PowerShell, not sure if it works
