[win] libeay32.lib absolute path (LNK1181 error solved)

[drandreaskrueger]

Please see LNK1181 solution.

I have linked the two lines in binding.gyp

Is it the only way to demand that one specific absolute path to that library?
If yes, then please also check the folder above, then this copying-to-lib doesn't need to be.

Alternatively, perhaps you could simply include and ship that "libeay32.lib" ?

+1 this should be addressed properly.

I added some notes about windows: https://github.com/cryptocoinjs/secp256k1-node/tree/d96965d40369a70ac255413b4f9474dc4ea7ffa4#windows

Thx. I suggest you link to this workaround too, because it contains an exact description what to do (just installing it is NOT enough):

@drandreaskrueger why installing OpenSSL is NOT enough?

[drandreaskrueger]

it also needed

mkdir lib
copy libeay32.lib lib

[fanatid]

@drandreaskrueger check new version of OpenSSL (1.0.2h for example)

If that does fix it, fine.

My own problem was solved, anyways, in June already.

Thanks for your efforts. Have a nice day.
