Conflict (resolved) between VisualSVN and VMWare Workstation v7.1 Visual Studio Addin

I've been getting the following Error Message in Visual Studio when going to the VM->Options (VMWare Workstation v7.1 installed)

VMWare Workstation unrecoverable error: (DCL)

SSLLoadSharedLibrary: Failed to load library ssleay32.dll:126

A core file is available in "C:\Users\dan\AppData\....devenv-2808.dmp".

After some investigation, it seems that the problem is that both VisualSVN and the VMWare workstation load the same dll - ssleay32.dll - Into Visual Studio 2008 process's (devenv.exe) address space.

Unfortunately they both do so with different versions of ssleay32.dll...

VisualSVN 2.0.1 uses version 0.9.8l of the openssl library, and VMWare workstation (version 7.1) uses version 0.9.8n.

To resolve, I copied VisualSVN's older dll into the VMWare\VMWare Workstation folder.

The libeay32.dll file also has to be copied.

Hope this helps someone Smiley Happy
