Struggling with ndll

[François Barbut]

Hi,

I'd like to request APIs thru HTTPS in my neko project. (neko runs on a ubuntu 64 VM.)

Usually I call directly a cURL process via haxe.io.Process but this time, it doesn't work for a mysterious reason.

I tried to use hxssl ( https://github.com/tong/hxssl ) but the hxssl.ndll crashes the process.

I get this in the apache error log : 

Could not link to neko.
Could not link plugin to process (hxCFFILoader.h 670)

I tried to use hx-curl ( https://bitbucket.org/yar3333/haxe-curl )

curl.ndll is correctly located in /usr/lib/neko/  with correct rights but ...

Uncaught exception - load.c(237) : Failed to load library : /usr/lib/neko/curl.ndll (libneko.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

Called from neko/Curl.hx line 277

What could I do to make it work with either hxssl or hx-curl ?

I got some progress with hx-curl :

libneko.so didn't exist on the system , I fixed this with a simlink ...

Neko 2.1.0 should come with mbedtls and allow haxe 3.3+ to make secure requests without using hxssl/hx-curl (using haxe.Http).
