OpenSSL AES encryption error

I'm currently trying to encrypt a binary file with OpenSSL (it's part of a project and OpenSSL has to be used).I managed to install OpenSSL and link it with Visual Studio 2010.

Upon finishing my program I did not get any underlined errors but on compileing i get the following

error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _AES_ctr128_encrypt referenced in function "void __cdecl encrypt(void)"

Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve the error?

That error is from linker. Probably, you didn't enable some ifdefs, or didn't set some compiler options. To troubleshoot this error, - check where AES_ctr128_encrypt is defined and check if you are compiling corresponding file - check if this file is linked together in project - check compiled object file if it exports this function with the name _AES_ctr128_encrypt
