Add a Private Key and Certificate Chain to a PFX
See more PFX/P12 Examples
Demonstrates Pfx.AddPrivateKey, which adds a private key together with its certificate chain to the PFX object.
The file path is relative to the application's current working directory. An absolute path may also be used. Supply the path appropriate to your own environment.
Background. The chain must contain at least one certificate; the certificate at index 0 is treated as the leaf. The chain is built here with Cert.BuildCertChain.
Note
This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat
v11.4.0 or greater.
