hi!

I wrote a simple C code to work with OpenSSL and it builds fine.
however when i import it, i get an error
ImportError: DLL load failed. The specified module could not be found.

the file is in Python/Lib directory.

the code is below.

thanks

#include <Python.h>
#include "openssl/bio.h"
#include "openssl/ssl.h"
#include "openssl/err.h"

static PyObject * start(PyObject *self, PyObject *args)
{
	int x;
	BIO * bio;
	char buf[1024];
	int len = 512;
	SSL_load_error_strings();
	ERR_load_BIO_strings();
	OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms();
	bio = BIO_new_connect("www.ibm.com:80");
	if(bio==NULL)
	{
		//handle error
		x = -5;
	}
	if(BIO_do_connect(bio) <= 0)
	{
		//handle failed connection
		x = -4;
	}
	x = BIO_read(bio, buf, len);
	if(x == 0)
	{
		//handle closed connection
		x = -3;
	}
	else if(x<0)
	{
		if(! BIO_should_retry(bio))
		{
			//handle failed read
			x = -2;
		}
		//do something to handle the retry
	}
	return Py_BuildValue("i", x);
}

static PyMethodDef testSSLMethods[] = {
	{"start", start, METH_VARARGS, "start and test SSL."},
	{NULL, NULL, 0, NULL}
};

PyMODINIT_FUNC
inittestSSL(void)
{
	(void) Py_InitModule("testSSL", testSSLMethods);
}
