OpenVPN 2.4.5 static linking on Linux/MacOS about openvpn-build HOT 7 CLOSED

An additional note for the problem on MacOS: building with "-static" (required by openssl 1.1.x) causes this problem so I had to hack the build script and comment out the line "EX_LIBS = -static" generated in the openssl's Makefile.

well, we can add osx builds to travis-ci matrix if those are really needed

@berserker - do you know easy way of determing dynamic linking under travis-ci ?

Thanks for the feedback @chipitsine but unfortunately I'm not familiar with travis-ci.
Let me know if I can help you in another way 👍

Travis-ci is either Linux or osx build agents

We already use it http://travis-ci.org/OpenVPN/openvpn-build

According to your findings, it seems those build scripts should be modified

well, what if we will check ${CHOST}-objdump

openssl-1.0.2:

i686-w64-mingw32-objdump -p ./generic/image/openvpn/bin/openvpn.exe |grep DLL
 vma:            Hint    Time      Forward  DLL       First
	DLL Name: ADVAPI32.dll
	DLL Name: CRYPT32.dll
	DLL Name: fwpuclnt.dll
	DLL Name: GDI32.dll

Moving the MinGW builds of OpenVPN to use CMake+VCPKG. Support is already in master and will be backported to release/2.6. There is definitely no plan to address this in the context of "generic". So closing this issue.
