Find and Load Certificate by Thumbprint

See more Certificates Examples

Demonstrates how to find and load a certificate by SHA1 thumbprint. This is a Microsoft Windows-only example. It assumes the certificate is already installed on the Windows system.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.83 or greater.

Java

import com.chilkatsoft.*;

public class ChilkatExample {

  static {
    try {
        System.loadLibrary("chilkat");
    } catch (UnsatisfiedLinkError e) {
      System.err.println("Native code library failed to load.\n" + e);
      System.exit(1);
    }
  }

  public static void main(String argv[])
  {
    boolean success = false;

    // This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.83 or greater.

    CkCert cert = new CkCert();

    // The thumbprint can be passed in any encoding, such as hex, base64, etc.
    // The 2nd argument indicates the encoding of the 1st argument.
    success = cert.LoadByThumbprint("ea5a129c1919a52d238ee28d9f3a8f345b768388","hex");
    if (success == false) {
        System.out.println(cert.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    System.out.println("Found: " + cert.subjectDN());
  }
