    // This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.

    // In this example, the URLs for the DigiCert root CA certs are available at this web page:
    // https://www.digicert.com/digicert-root-certificates.htm

    // This example downloads the "DigiCert Global Root G3"
    // Valid until: 15/Jan/2038
    // Serial #: 05:55:56:BC:F2:5E:A4:35:35:C3:A4:0F:D5:AB:45:72
    // Thumbprint: 7E04DE896A3E666D00E687D33FFAD93BE83D349E

    // Thumbprint: 7E04DE896A3E666D00E687D33FFAD93BE83D349E

    // for this application.  (Note:  The trust is not persisted.  Each time the
    // application runs, it should load the cert (from whatever source, whether it is
    // a file, a database,etc.) and do the following:
    CkTrustedRoots troots;

    troots.AddCert(cert);
    troots.Activate();

    strOut.append(cert.subjectCN());
