How to use openssl as a crate in rust on windows

1

i tried everything if you can find any working solutions it would help me a lot

2

i tried using mingw with msys2 tried installing openssl with vcpkg but its not recognizing vcpkg anyhow tried using the prebuilt binaries no success there either i am desperate will try anything you guys come up with

3

Have you tried the MSVC target? Both mingw and msys2 setup GNU environment on its own runtime. Vcpkg on windows installs windows library, not GNU compatible library.

how do i use msvc target i cannot found any working solutions anywhere

5

How did you install those toolchain? On windows the rustup installs the MSVC target by default.
