With FDK 2026, I get error "COMP_get_type" not found in "libssl-3-x64.dll"

I try to recompile my EXE program with FDK 2026 and I get this error :

“The procedure entry point COMP_get_type could not be located in the dynamic library C:\...\libssl-3-64.dll”

It seems the libssl library is not aligned with API.lib or FDK.lib

    In that case, something probably got busted in this version - I don’t know if there’s an update mechanism in that product, but maybe there’s been a patch issued? I would also suggest contacting the FM folks at tcssup@adobe.com for help too.

    I try to access FM from outside of FM. And this was working until FM 2019.

    My libs are following :

    LDLIBS=fdk.lib api.lib kernel32.lib user32.lib advapi32.lib ole32.lib uuid.lib Version.lib

    I link with MSVCRT.LIB

    I’ve already contacted the support but no answer for the moment.

    Thanks for the info. I compile successfully with FDK and VS 2026, but I only compile synchronous DLLs for use during an FM session and I don’t have any knowledge of your situation. Best of luck. There are not many resources to help FM plugin developers.

    These issues can be complex and you haven’t provided many details. In particular, you mention that you are compiling an EXE, which suggests you are doing something other than compiling a normal FM plugin. It is no guarantee, but if you provided more information about your environment and exactly what it is you are trying to compile, it might help.

    This is also what I think.

    I will contact Adobe.

    Thank you for your help

    Did it work before with an earlier version of the FDK?
