I believe CommonCrypto provides an OpenSSL compatibile API; for
example, if you're using the MD5...() routines from OpenSSL, defined
in openssl/md5.h, if you have the following:

#if defined(__APPLE__)
#define COMMON_DIGEST_FOR_OPENSSL
#include <CommonCrypto/CommonDigest.h>
#define MD5 CC_MD5
#else
#include <openssl/md5.h>
#endif

then the above will cause you to use CommonCrypto instead?

this was the offered solution.
