Structural highlighting has also been added. Technical details.

OpenSSL has released a new feature version 3.4.0 (no security fixes). It includes support for integrity-only cipher suites, a random seed source JITTER, and other new crypto functions. Also support for X509 attribute or authorization certificates, that may be used to control installation of software on devices from software stores, ICS does not support AC yet. The QUIC server implementation planned for this release has been postponed to 3.5 in April 2025. Windows binaries are available in SVN and the overnight zip file and separately from https://wiki.overbyte.eu/wiki/index.php/ICS_Download or https://www.magsys.co.uk/delphi/magics.asp In addition to the three DLL files, the zips include compiled RES resource files that contain the same DLLs, text files and version information, see the RC file. The RES file may be linked into application EXE files and code then used to extract the DLLs from the resource to a temporary directory to avoid distributing them separately. ICS V9.1 and later optionally support loading the resource file. These OpenSSL versions are included with ICS V9.4 beta available from SVN and the overnight zip. Beware OpenSSL 3.4.0 has exposed a minor ICS bug creating X509 certificate requests and creating CA signed certificates, which is fixed in SVN for V9.4. or a one line change for earlier versions. Also note when building the ICS packages for the first time with 3.4.0, there may be a dialog 'entry point could not be located', because the new DLLs are only extracted from the resource files when the first application is run, but the packages have built OK. ICS V9.4 beta now defaults to using OpenSSL 3.4.0, provided the new OverbyteIcsDefs.inc files is installed. Angus

Another ICS user attempted to add Android support to ICS last year, but it never worked, and the code has now been removed, Currently, ICS has limited support for Linux for tools and utilities only, particularly SSL/TLS certificates, but not TCP/UDP sockets. Those functions would probably also work today on Android with minor changes to look for the OpenSSL in the correct path, you should be able to debug the code yourself, but I'm not testing Android until Linux is fully working. I'm now working on the full Linux implementation, replacing the existing MacOS only support with new multiplatform support, it will be several weeks work. Angus
