Link time errors

[Krishnan]

Hi

I am trying to build a small client-server program using OpenSSL functions. I get errors on trying to build the program using Visual Studio .Net (Visual C++ 7.0). I am new to Visual Studio environment, pls bear with me if this one is a trivial question

Here's the procedure I followed

(1) Copied libeay32.lib and ssleay32.lib to C:\program files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Vc7\li
(2) Copied the OpenSSL header files to c:\program files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Vc7\includ e\openssl folde

(3) On building the program, I get the following errors

SSL error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _ERR_print_erro rs_fp referenced in function _handle_erro
SSL error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _SSL_load_error _strings referenced in function _init_OpenSS
SSL error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _SSL_library_in it referenced in function _init_OpenSS
SSL error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _THREAD_setup referenced in function _init_OpenSS
SSL error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BIO_read referenced in function _do_server_loo
SSL error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _ERR_remove_sta te referenced in function _server_threa
SSL error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BIO_free referenced in function _server_threa
SSL error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BIO_pop referenced in function _mai
SSL error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BIO_ctrl referenced in function _mai
SSL error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BIO_new_accept referenced in function _mai
SSL fatal error LNK1120: 10 unresolved external

I understand that the tool is unable to obtain symbols for these SSL functions. Isn't it sufficient that I copy these libraries to the location specified in step (1) ? Would this suffice as it's in the standard path where Visual Studio should look for the library ? Am I overlooking some cruical aspect here

Any help in this regard would be much appreciated

Thanks
Krishnan
