Using openssl with love

[bobbyjones]

Yup they are api compatible. Also if you are new with Lua then I recommend you do a couple projects before doing something that requires external clibs. Adding an external c library is rather simple once you start to understand everything. The only issue is getting the clib binaries.

The project I have in hands and that brought me to love2d and lua requires this OpenSSL integration so, I Guess i dont have any other choice than make lua-openssl work with love2d in Linux and android... Hope it works...

Use luasec. On Linux it's simple. Just have luarocks install luasec next to your src folder. On Android it's more complicated because you need to compile for Android and you also need to make sure openssl is available.
