My point was... why on Linux did I need only libssl and to compile the same client on Windows/MinGW requires libssl and libeay32. I could not find a lot of doc about the differences between the two. The only thing I've found said libeay32 is the predecessor of openssl. Is that right ?
Dr Henson, you've made clear the distinction between libssl and libcrypto. But what are the distinctions between eay and ssl ???
