Cant connect to https. Do I also need to re-build hbtip with OPENSSL?

[Reinaldo]

Hello everyone;

I built hbssl using OPENSSL ver 1.0.0g.

I'm linking this newly built hbssl.lib and OPENSSL libs with my app.   I'm able to test a few of the ssleay32.lib functions successfully which proves SSL libs are linked in.  But can not connect to https.   

Do I have to rebuild the original hbtip.lib now that I have hbssl created?  If so, how?  Is there an environmental variable I need to set before?

Here is an encapsulated reduced sample code that reproduces the problem.  BTW-- it executes fine on xHarbour:

//--------------- BOF ---------------//

Function Main() 

LOCAL oHttp

LOCAL cUrl := "https://www.flooranddecor.com"

   hb_inetInit()

   SSL_init()

   ? SSLeay_version( HB_SSLEAY_VERSION  )

   ? SSLeay_Version( HB_SSLEAY_DIR ) 

   ? SSLeay_version( HB_SSLEAY_CFLAGS   ) 

   ? SSLeay_version( HB_SSLEAY_BUILT_ON ) 

   ? SSLeay_version( HB_SSLEAY_PLATFORM ) 

   ? SSLeay_version( HB_SSLEAY_DIR      )          // also **please take a look at the output for this line.***

   oHttp := tIPClientHTTP():new( cUrl, .T. )

RETURN NIL 

//--------------- EOF ---------------//

Here is the output:

One last question; output for HB_SSLEAY_DIR seems incorrect under Windows.  I would expect something like c:\Windows\System32\     Is this ok?

Thank you.

Never mind.  Finally found the problem.  It seems as if you MUST REQUEST SSL.  as in:

REQUEST __HBEXTERN__HBSSL__

Adding that line before all else, seems to have solved the problem.
