To build with + Secure Transport for SSL/TLS, use the configure option --with-darwinssl. (It + is not necessary to use the option --without-ssl.) This feature requires iOS + 5.0 or later, or OS X 10.5 ("Leopard") or later. + + When Secure Transport is in use, the curl options --cacert and --capath and + their libcurl equivalents, will be ignored, because Secure Transport uses + the certificates stored in the Keychain to evaluate whether or not to trust + the server. This, of course, includes the root certificates that ship with + the OS. The --cert and --engine options, and their libcurl equivalents, are + currently unimplemented in curl with Secure Transport. + + For OS X users: In OS X 10.8 ("Mountain Lion"), Apple made a major + overhaul to the Secure Transport API that, among other things, added + support for the newer TLS 1.1 and 1.2 protocols. To get curl to support + TLS 1.1 and 1.2, you must build curl on Mountain Lion or later, or by + using the equivalent SDK. If you set the MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET + environmental variable to an earlier version of OS X prior to building curl, + then curl will use the new Secure Transport API on Mountain Lion and later, + and fall back on the older API when the same curl binary is executed on + older cats. For example, running these commands in curl's directory in the + shell will build the code such that it will run on cats as old as OS X 10.6 + ("Snow Leopard") (using bash): + + export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET="10.6" + ./configure --with-darwinssl + make + + IBM OS/2 ======== Building under OS/2 is not much different from building under unix. @@ -1015,7 +1047,7 @@ PORTS - AVR32 Linux - ARM Android 1.5, 2.1 - ARM INTEGRITY - - ARM iPhone OS + - ARM iOS - Cell Linux - Cell Cell OS - HP-PA HP-UX 9.X 10.X 11.X @@ -1053,6 +1085,7 @@ PORTS - i386 HURD - i386 Haiku OS - i386 Linux 1.3, 2.0, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.6 + - i386 Mac OS X - i386 MINIX 3.1 - i386 NetBSD - i386 Novell NetWare |
