Include openssl source in qt project
-
Hi,
I want to include the openssl source in my qmake qt project. The project should compile the openssl libraries at compile time.
I have to crosscompile my project for android and windows. On both system I will get problems with missing openssl libraries, so I want to include the sources direct in my qt project.Thank you for your help.

there is no question in your post...and please don't ask "how do I include ssl source in my project for all my platforms?" Have you googled relevant topics? there should be much already online addressing how to compile or link with openssl.

martin@msauer75 You should use subdirs project structure like https://riptutorial.com/qt/example/16535/subdirs-example and put OpenSSL as subdir generating a lib which is then referenced in places.

Sorry for the bad post. I searched on google, but I can't find postings which are solved my problem.

Upon re-reading your post I think you would do better to separate the tasks out as
- building/installing ssl on the target platform
- building it for cross compile on the dev host
- and then linking against the cross compiled libs in your qt project.
Trying to build a cross compiled ssl packaged on every qt build seems friviluos and overly complex.

In Qt 5.12.4 is openssl 1.1.1 included. Do you know, how I use this version or compile the libs?
