Exactly and the question is why does OpenSSL have to do the difficult part:-):-):-) >>> May be there is another method to check wether a windows process >>> is a service, without using user32.dll. >> As mentioned one can do it with Native NT API, but it's quite >> special and belongs rather in [your] application than in openssl. > > Yes and no. As soon as there is any openSSL code, using APIs from > user32.dll, my application still have a dependency to user32.dll. Once again, if you /delayload user32 and never make the call, you're safe. OpenSSL never calls RAND_screen, your application can, make sure it doesn't. OPENSSL_isservice doesn't make user32.dll calls if you redirect stderr. If called as service start your application with redirected stderr. Rules of conversation imply that you either try to refute the statement or confirm it.
