Can I update the security files in an older version of Firefox
JJ,
I don't think that SSL module has any support for chipers which
are used for today's SSL.
There goes that idea ...
But the exported functions of NSS3.DLL seem to be a simple
merge of the above DLLs.
Hmmm... If thats so it should be possible to use (most of) my old code with
the new DLL. I'll have to try it I guess.
MDN doesn't seems to have documentation for the SSL3 module.
It only has the one for NSS (the merged version).
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/NSS
:-) It turns out I also found that one (probably when looking for that
"verify certificate" part I mentioned).
Perhaps you can find it by rummaging MDN pages' histories. Or
from non Mozilla websites.
When I spend time googling for info I need - as I did for SSL3 and related -
I do not really care where the info comes from, or in which language the
comments around the code are put in. Heck, sometimes the *best* info comes
from sites other than the companies own (looking at you, microsoft).
MDN pages' histories
Any pointer to where I have to look for them (can't remember having ever
seen any such reference, even when I'm a regular visitor of MSDN pages).
Regards,
Rudy Wieser
