bah.libcurlssl ld.exe: cannot find -leay32
BlitzMax Forums/Brucey's Modules/bah.libcurlssl ld.exe: cannot find -leay32
| ||
| When using bah.libcurlssl I get the following error: D:\Projects>bmk makeapp -d -t console test.bmx Compiling:test.bmx flat assembler version 1.69.14 (1233141 kilobytes memory) 3 passes, 2428 bytes. Linking:test.exe C:\BlitzMax/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -leay32 Build Error: Failed to link D:/Projects/test.exe Contents of the file is only a import call to bah.libcurlsll and a Print call. The strange thing however is that when compiling from within MaxIDE or BLIde this works fine. I've got the latest version of OpenSSL installed (1.0.0.4 -or- 1.0.0d). For it to work with MaxIDE and BLIde I had to move the .a files to C:/MingW/lib. Installed version of gcc is: gcc (GCC) 3.4.5 (mingw special) Am I missing something? |

| The .a file should be in the module ssl/lib dir. It needs this to link to the dll. The path is defined on line 52 of libcurlssl.bmx. : ModuleInfo "LD_OPTS: -L%PWD%/ssl/lib" Where %PWD% is the module location in the filesystem. If it can't find the file in that location, linking will fail. I've never had problems with it linking, and have never put anything into MinGW for any modules. |
| ||
| OK so I moved the .a files to C:\BlitzMax\mod\bah.mod\libcurlssl.mod\ssl\lib but I'm still getting link errors. I've also made sure my MinGW directory is clean again. ...... And it seems I also need to move the .lib files in there :-). It all works now again. |
| ||
| and the file is called libeay32.a ? |
| ||
| Yes. But I had to include the .lib files for it to work. |
| ||
| .lib? that's interesting. They're usually only for VS builds.... |
| ||
| Windows (?) works in mysterious ways! I've got no clue why it is, I'm just glad it works :-D. |
