Load PFX/P12 File into Certificate Store Object

Demonstrates how to load a .pfx/.p12 into a certificate store object. C#

bool success = false;

Chilkat.CertStore certStore = new Chilkat.CertStore();

//  This only loads the contents of the PFX file into the certStore object.
//  It is not importing the PFX into the Windows certificate stores.
string pfxPassword = "badssl.com";
success = certStore.LoadPfxFile("qa_data/pfx/badssl.com-client.p12",pfxPassword);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(certStore.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Examine each certificate (loaded from the PFX) in this certStore object
Chilkat.Cert cert = new Chilkat.Cert();
int numCerts = certStore.NumCertificates;
int i = 0;
while (i < numCerts) {
    certStore.GetCert(i,cert);
    Debug.WriteLine("hasPrivateKey=" + Convert.ToString(cert.HasPrivateKey()) + ", " + cert.SubjectCN);
    i = i + 1;
}
