OpenSSL New User Interface functions not exported in the Windows version of Node 10 #27494
Description

I believe you, but I'm not having any success figuring out how that is controlled. Do you know?
OK, found fcaeb1f
It's possible this will work, can you check?

'-DWIN32',I'm not sure we go through much effort to decide what people can or cannot do with the linked copy of OpenSSL. Direct calls to OpenSSL are the users responsibility, for better or worse.
AFAICT, the situation on 10.x is same as master and 12.x.
What is it that you would like? I can regenerate the config with the 'no-ui' config option (though see below). Or, its possible the patch above will export the symbols. Exporting the symbols seems less likely to break any existing user, removing symbols would be semver-major, so wouldn't backport to 10.x
*) The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e. not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null() as a fallback). To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. [Richard Levitte]- openssl-1.1.1a/CHANGES
They should be consistent, they are generated by the config scripts all in a single batch, windows included. At least, I'm not aware of any reports of problems.
Anyhow, if you check the diff above and confirm it works, I'll PR it and raise a backport to 10.x.

Symbols for the UI_* functions are not present in either version
node.libfor the Windows version of Node 10. This is an issue when building native addons, since OpenSSL doesn't appear to be configured in a way that would exclude them (OPENSSL_NO_UI is not defined.) These functions are available in the Linux version of Node, however.
