One final doubt... the library libeay32.lib is itself built from the

libeay32.lib, there should be definitions in the OpenSSL code right?
Consider as an example X509_free( ). When i say 
IMPLEMENT_ASN1_FUNCTIONS(X509), the definition of X509_free will be

void X509_free(X509 *a)
{
   ASN1_item_free((ASN1_VALUE *)a, ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)) ;
}

The definition for  ASN1_item_free is present in tasn_fre.c and I am 
able to resolve all the dependencies of that function.
But the problem is with ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509), which expands to X509_it( 
) in my case.


    

That is defined in the appropriate ASN1 module. In this case
crypto/asn1/x_x509.c

thanks for your help. I got it now.
