Does anyone know of a more recent OpenSSL book than "Network Security with OpenSSL: Cryptography for Secure Communications" (http://www.opensslbook.com/)? It is from 2002 and does not cover OpenSSL version 0.97+. Best would be a book for OpenSSL 1.0.0 but I guess that one is too recent.
A:
There is also EKR's book ( http://www.rtfm.com/sslbook/ ), but that's more concerned with the protocol rather than the library, and is equally old.
However, the OpenSSL API is really quite stable; you would probably do fine with a reference from 2002. As ever with OpenSSL, digging through the source is often the only way to get what you need.

I have that book and as you say it is more about the protocol. The reason why I asked about a more recent book was for calls like EVP_DigestInit_ex that is only briefly mentioned in the book as forthcoming. I guess I have to resort to the source :)
