OpenSSL Configuration macOS 10.11 or lower version only

OpenSSL Configuration (macOS 10.11 or lower version only )

We recommend macOS 10.12 (Sierra) or above to avoid the OpenSSL pre-requisite setup on your mac.

For macOS, you will need to install OpenSSL which is a pre-requiste for DotNet Core that mssql extention uses. Follow the 'install pre-requisite' steps in DotNet Core instruction page. Or, simply run the following commands in your macOS Terminal.

brew update
brew install openssl
ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/
ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libssl.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/

After running the openssl installation steps, restart Visual Studio Code.
