I am using Indy to get JSON from a url address. My code is using TIdSSLIOHandlerSocketOpenSSL as IOHandler for TIdHTTP.

Both libraries libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll are present in the same folder as application executable.

These libraries are loaded automatically when they are needed as is written in this answer. This is working fine.

You don't have to link them to anything. They're loaded automatically with plain old LoadLibrary when they're needed.

But I need to move these libraries to subfolder Libs\, but then they are not found and I receive exception EIdOSSLCouldNotLoadSSLLibrary with message: Could not load SSL library.

How can I force the application to know both libraries are not in the same folder but in subfolder Libs\ and to be loaded from there when they are needed?

In case it is not clear from that link, the best solution is to use Indy's `IdOpenSSLSetLibPath()` function. – Remy Lebeau Sep 21 '16 at 17:37
