Hello Shao,

Open SSL is currently not included/supported in Wwise Perforce plugin.

To be able to use Open SSL with Wwise Perforce plug-in, you will need to link Open SSL libraries and rebuild the plug-in yourself. The plug-in source can be found under \SDK\samples\SourceControl\Perforce.

For more info on how to rebuild the plug-in, you can refer to our documentation: https://www.audiokinetic.com/library/2015.1.4_5497/?source=SDK&id=referencematerial__samplecode__source__control.html

Hope this helps !

Is this still the case with the latest version of Wwise?

I'm running into this issue as well. I have the plugin project setup to build but I'm a little confused on what needs to be done to link OpenSSL. Are these libraries something we should be integrating into the plugin codes ourselves or is it a matter of pointing the build to a different lib/dll?

Back to answer my own question just in case anybody else stumbles upon this. The missing part I was looking for is the answer to "How to link OpenSSL in Perforce API builds" as the previous post only mentions how to build the Wwise plugin with the Perforce code.

I found this reference helpful as it mentions exactly what you need to do to link OpenSSL into your own Perforce build: https://www.perforce.com/perforce/doc.current/manuals/p4api/chapter.client.programming.html

Specific area of note: "The Perforce C/C++ API can be configured to support encrypted connections to the Perforce servers. To enable this support you must replace the bundled libp4sslstub.a (on Windows, libp4sslstub.lib) with copies of the OpenSSL libraries. OpenSSL libraries are available from many sources; the most up-to-date is from http://www.openssl.org/."
