Hi,
sorry for the very late answer, but i had no time for it since today :/
So thanks for reply.
I want to write a C++ Application which uses NSS. More i can not say sorry.
So my first thought was to compile the NSS and NSPR to get the compiled and
build dynamic libraries which i can include into my C++ Project ans use there.
Then i looked at some Mozilla Code at Modzilla DXR and the little piece of
exampe Code from the Mozilla NSS Website. And there they include the source
headers and files directly into the code.
So what is the best and easiest way to use NSS in my Project? Using compiled
dynamic libraries or the header files i have to include and the compile the
whole thing? Can i use the dynamic libraries with the full functionality like i
include the header files directly?
Van you explain a little bit more the thing with:
extern "C" {
#include "nss.h"
}
This i have to put in my cpp file on whch i include the "nss.h" right?
So have i todo this in the other NSS Header files, too? Let's say for example
in the "secutil.h" i want to use. In this file some more ehaders are included.
Have i to add the extern "C" declaration, too?
thanks again and sorry for the late answer :)
