Hi Matt,

I am aware of the deprecation of the engine interface with 3.0 but have not 
looked into the details of support providers yet. I  expect converting an 
engine to a support provider could be done with quite a bit of code reuse, 
correct? Would you say the interface and design of support providers is stable 
at this point?

The engine and provider interfaces are quite different - but since the underlying operations are the same I imagine there will be quite a bit of reuse.

Yes, we consider the provider interface to be stable now.

Thanks,
Reinier

Nice! Are there any thoughts to support providers? The engine interface is

Hi,
For anyone interested in leveraging Windows CNG with OpenSSL 1.1.1, you may want to check 
out this new OpenSSL CNG Engine project on GitHub: 
https://github.com/rticommunity/openssl-cng-engine 
<https://github.com/rticommunity/openssl-cng-engine> . The associated User's Manual 
is on ReadTheDocs: https://openssl-cng-engine.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html 
<https://openssl-cng-engine.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html> .
The project implements the majority of the EVP interface, to leverage the 
BCrypt crypto implementations, as well as a subset of the STORE interface, for 
integration with the Windows Certificate and Keystore(s), via the NCrypt and 
Cert APIs. It has been tested with 1.1.1k on Windows 10, with Visual Studio 
2017 and 2019. It is released under the Apache-2.0 license.
Any feedback is welcome, please send it to me or open an issue on GitHub.
Best regards,
Reinier
