0.9.7c > Do you have the latest patches for Builder 5? No, my install is right off the original C++Builder 5 distrib CD (Build 12.34) > Did you try 'implib' on the pre-built DLLs (does that fix the problem)? Um. No. What's implib? :) I am new to the C++Builder environment. I had used MSVC several years ago (v 1.5 ad 2). I've spent the last several years in C on Linux however, so I'm still coming back up to speed in Windows programming. > Did you copy the contents of the 'include' directory to your Borland > installation (I doubt that this would fix anything, but just to cover that > bases)? Yes, I did. I copied them to borland's /include under /openssl from there. > Did you try re-building your entire project? Yes. > Where were the access violations? I forget. I will have to install it again and test for this. > Are you using command-line or GUI mode? GUI mode. > VCL or no? Yes, I have some VCL components in my app, and have included vcl.h > Are you able to step through with a debugger to the point of failure? > Can I get some sample source code that causes the problems to occur?

My latest version of MSVC is vers 2 and I wasn't considering even trying that one. > Technically, there should nothing wrong with the DLLs.

I copied the 2 .lib files to Borlands /Lib directory and have those included in the project. Should I not use the lib files?
