Subject Alternative Name

Demonstrates the usage of the SubjectAlternativeName property to get the certificate SAN (subject alternative name) as XML. Java

    // Here's a sample of the subjectAltNameXml:

    // <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    // <SubjectAltName>
    //     <name type="oid" oid="2.16.76.1.3.4">...</name>
    //     <name type="oid" oid="2.16.76.1.3.2">...</name>
    //     <name type="oid" oid="2.16.76.1.3.3">...</name>

    //     <rfc822Name>...</rfc822Name>
    // </SubjectAltName>

    // The XML can be parsed like this:

    CkXml xml = new CkXml();

    xml.LoadXml(subjectAltNameXml);

    String oid;
    String name;

    int i = 0;
    int count_i = xml.NumChildrenHavingTag("name");
