hi Philippe,
Thanx for the reply.
Im aware of the fact that the Net.lib is required to be loaded before we use
SslLib.lib.
But the problem im facing is that SysLibLoad is failing. The error i got is
'sysErrLibNotFound'. Perhaps the library isnt there on my machine? How do i
get it?
Also, in the code that u have shown me , 'SysLibLoad' is used after all :-)
"
if(g_prefs.enableSsl)
{
err = SysLibFind (kSslDBName, &SslLibRefnum);
if (err )
{
err=SysLibLoad (kSslLibType,kSslLibCreator,&SslLibRefnum);
}
