Note about OpenSSL support

The OpenSSL 1.1.x support added by the last release received fixes for linker errors that ocurred on some systems. At the same time, the selection of the library version can now be done using a DUB build configuration in the "vibe-d:tls" package instead of defining the VibeOpenSSL11 version.

On systems that use the newer 1.1.x branch, this can be done on the DUB command line using --override-config vibe-d:tls/openssl-1.1. Alternatively, a using a sub configuration directive in the package recipe can be used:

SDL syntax:

dependency "vibe-d:tls" version="~>0.8.2"
subConfiguration "vibe-d:tls" "openssl-1.1"

JSON syntax:

{
    ...
    "dependencies": {
        ...
        "vibe-d:tls": "~>0.8.2"
    },
    "subConfigurations": {
        ...
        "vibe-d:tls": "openssl-1.1"
    }
}

For older systems there is also an "openssl-0.9" configuration that can be used in analogy to the above to build against the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch.

Finally, there is a "botan" configuration for using the D port of the Botan library.
