document the new build option "enable-static-vcruntime"

2026-03-06T18:53:00Z

I placed these new notes prominently based upon how important I think that they are for applications developers targeting Windows platforms. With this new option, contributed (but not documented) by @nhorman in Commit 9431cc2, standalone executable applications can be distributed that do not require an installer and do not require modification of the target computer.

Remove ENGINESDIR variable and engines installation from Makefiles.

2025-12-04T12:31:06Z

For compatibility reasons, OPENSSL_ENGINES_DIR and OPENSSL_INFO_ENGINES_DIR are still supported but return values like with engines disabled. The OPENSSL_ENGINES environment variable will be removed with engine removal later.

Allow OPENSSLDIR/ENGINESDIR/MODULESDIR to be NULL

2024-07-09T08:01:44Z

To prevent inadvertent use of insecure directories, we need to be able to detect and react when our new registry keys aren't set, which implies allowing the values for the dynamic representations of OPENSSLDIR/ENGINESDIR/MODULESDIR to return NULL. This in turn requires that we detect and handle NULL string in several call sites that previously assumed they would never be NULL.
