That's because that's the prefered way. If you look at the built-in engines, though, you will see that they have code for non-dynamic situations. In that case, the engine needs to define a loading function (ENGINE_load_foo()) which needs to be called instead of doing whatever you do to load the engine dynamically. I haven't done this for a few years, so I'm a bit rusty myself... Cheers, Richard ----- Please consider sponsoring my work on free software.
