SSL facilities.
In addition, some versions of apr-util provide an abstract interface
- for SSL encrypted network sockets in the files under the directory
- srclib/apr-util/ssl/
- that makes use of a general-purpose encryption library, such as
- OpenSSL or the operating system's platform-specific SSL facilities.
- Apache httpd currently does not use that apr-util interface.
