[openssl-users] Where to find definitions of certain functions

[Ajay Garg]

Hardly helps :(

*nm -o /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.a  | grep ASN1_TIME_t*
nm: ebcdic.o: no symbols
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.a:a_time.o:00000230 T
ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.a:ocsp_srv.o:         U
ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime
