How to cross-build OpenSSL shared library

Fri Feb 3 20:45:44 EST 2006

Hello

I have a problem with cross compiling the OpenSSL library for PPC (mpc885) as a
shared library (Host x86, Linux).

I give the option "shared" to the "Configure" script delivered with OpenSSL. But it
always only builds me static libraries. After Configuration it shows me the text:

>You gave the option 'shared'. Normally, that would give you shared libraries.
>Unfortunately, the OpenSSL configuration doesn't include shared library support
>for this platform yet, so it will pretend you gave the option 'no-shared'

I am using ELDK (3.1.1) and there is a built OpenSSL as shared library
available.
Does anybody know about how they managed to build this shared library?

Thanks for any help
Marc
