.Net NativeAOT doesn't generate System.Net.Security.Native lib

[DrewRidley]

Description

Currently, I am compiling my NativeAOT application against linux, and mac successfully, but I have been unable to get it to link on windows.

Currently on both platforms I include System.Net.Security.Native and System.Security.Cryptography.Native.OpenSsl accordingly, and am able to statically link.

On windows however, these libraries have no equivalents in the sdk or framework folder in a static form, and only .dlls exist. Without being able to statically link these libraries on windows I am unable to compile my application.

Reproduction Steps

N/A

Expected behavior

Statically linkable .lib variants exist for the two namespaces above

Actual behavior

Statically linkable files are not found

Regression?

Don't know

Known Workarounds

These libraries don't exist on Windows since the managed code calls Win32 API directly and not through the native shims. They are not supposed to be there, and you are not supposed to manually link to any of these libraries. The build integration should do it for you, and do it appropriately for the target operating system.

The exact link error is:

rror: linking with `link.exe` failed: exit code: 1120

I managed to resolve the warning about LIBCMT but unfortunately resolving that warning did not seem to improve the state of the linker errors. I researched __imp_CoWaitForMultipleHandles and it seemed to point to something crypto related, and the only discrepancy between my linux and windows builds is the lack of System.Native.Security.
