    //  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    //  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    //  Build a simple MIME message to be encrypted:
    success = mime.AddHeaderField(L"Content-Type",L"text/plain");
    success = mime.AddHeaderField(L"abc",L"123");
    mime.SetBody(L"This is a test");

    //  A digital certificate is required to create PKCS7 encrypted MIME.
    //  It can come from a variety of sources: .cer file, .pfx file, PEM files,
    //  an in-memory representation, or directly from a Windows
    //  registry-based certificate store.

    //  This example will load a certificate object from a .cer file.
    //  Note: Only the public-key is required to encrypt.  (Decryption
    //  requires a private key.)

    CkCertW cert;
    success = cert.LoadFromFile(L"myCert.cer");
    if (success == false) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",cert.lastErrorText());
        return;
    }

    //  Encrypt the MIME:

        return;
    }

    //  Display the MIME:
    wprintf(L"%s\n",mime.getMime());

    //  The resulting S/MIME looks something like this:

    //  Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
