Make digest auth support conditional (issue #232)#357
Merged
Conversation
When libmicrohttpd is built with --disable-dauth, the digest auth functions (MHD_digest_auth_get_username, MHD_digest_auth_check, MHD_queue_auth_fail_response) are not available, causing linker errors. This change detects digest auth availability at configure time and conditionally compiles the digest auth code, following the existing pattern used for GnuTLS support. Changes: - Add AC_CHECK_LIB detection for MHD_queue_auth_fail_response - Add HAVE_DAUTH preprocessor flag when digest auth is available - Wrap digest auth code in #ifdef HAVE_DAUTH guards - Show digest auth status in configure summary
Build the digest_authentication example only when HAVE_DAUTH is defined, consistent with the conditional digest auth support added in the library.
When libmicrohttpd is built with --disable-dauth, passing MHD_OPTION_NONCE_NC_SIZE or MHD_OPTION_DIGEST_AUTH_RANDOM to MHD_create_daemon() causes daemon creation to fail. This fixes the ws_start_stop test failure in the no-dauth CI build.
