FFI can't resolve C symbols from SSL library.

[Ranguna259]

I downloaded a precompiled openSSL dll and tested it with luajit 2.1.0-beta2 with the following code copied from stackoverflow:

local ffi = require "ffi"
local ssl = ffi.load "ssl"

Luajit succesfully loads, encrypts and decrypts the message but if I try to do the same thing with LÖVE, it fails with the following error:

Code: Select all

Error: main.lua:33: cannot resolve symbol 'BIO_new_mem_buf': The specified procedure could not be found.


stack traceback:
	[C]: in function '__index'

This is my love:

I belive it is windows only as it uses dlls.

Why can't LÖVE's jit load SSL's library and my locally installed jit can ?

[raidho36]

I think you're supposed to call library functions via library handle, not ffi.C which is for standard library functions.

[Ranguna259]

Changed ffi.C.BIO_new_mem_buf to ssl.BIO_new_mem_buf and I get the same error.
I belive ffi isn't even loading the library for some reason.

[zorg]

Just to make sure, you are putting the dll in your löve executable's folder, and not your project's code/save folders, right?

[Ranguna259]

I wasn't, tried copying the dlls to LÖVE's executable's folder and it gives me the same error.
