Export a Public Key as DER into a BinData

Demonstrates the Chilkat PublicKey.GetDerBd method, which writes the public key as binary DER into a BinData. The first argument selects the representation (as for GetPem) and the second is the BinData that receives the bytes (its contents are replaced).

Note: The file paths are relative to the application's current working directory. Absolute paths may also be used. Supply the paths appropriate to your own environment.

// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.

    //  JWK, and other supported representations.
