Hi,
I’ll let Oliver provide the detailed answer, but the history as such is:
* WinRT uses a new networking API. When released Winsock was not
only deprecated but disallowed to be used
* We implemented network features using that new API.
* In the meantime there were sufficient complaints/feature requests,
that Microsoft created a new OpenSSL fork
(https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-51871 )
* A bit later, Winsock2 has been allowed to be used in WinRT (which
is called UWP now) again.
* The aim is to rather use this in Qt as well, as it shares then the
desktop/classic implementation, which gives bigger coverage.
In the meantime we are using the new, but not widely adopted API. SSL
is handled via the platform capabilities similar to what we do on mac.
If you encounter a specific issue, please create a bugreport and we
will follow up there.
BR,

yes Maurice is right. At the moment it is not possible to use openssl on
winrt, as we are not using the winsock2 API it uses as its foundation. I
would like to port over the network implementation over to winsock2
"now" that it is available, but haven't found the time for doing that
yet. Besides the bug report Maurice mentioned, there is also
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-63907 to track that issue.

Hi
The WinRT platform version of ssl seems to be very limited and doesn't
work when accessing web services with certain ssl certificates.
On Android I am using the openssl library successfully so I wanted to
use this on WinRT as well. I have built the openssl libraries and
included them in the build but it still seems to use the platform ssl
version. (I have tried on Qt 5.9 and 5.10)
I used the Microsoft openssl (https://github.com/Microsoft/openssl)
version 1.0.2.
Is using openssl supported in Qt for WinRT and if so do I need to do
anything else to get it to use those libs?
Thanks
Rogério
