Re: ptype of prototype of a funtion

produces warning


Here goes my script

Cool!! This is working


I have been using the one which has not been built with debug option.
I have the 2 OpenSSL 1 being built with debug option ( in different dir
) and the other without debug option ( in default location )

Thanks Ramana & Elizabeth for reminding me.
