(PHP ActiveX) Transition from Cert.GetCertChain to Cert.BuildCertChain

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated GetCertChain method calls with BuildCertChain.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.

Chilkat ActiveX Downloads ActiveX for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Note: The php_com_dotnet.dll may need to be enabled inside of php.ini.

<?php

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Cert')
$cert = new COM("Chilkat.Cert");

// ------------------------------------------------------------------------
// The GetCertChain method is deprecated:

// certchainObj is a Chilkat.CertChain
$certchainObj = $cert->GetCertChain();
if ($cert->LastMethodSuccess == 0) {
    print $cert->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// ...
// ...

// ------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Do the equivalent using BuildCertChain.
// Your application creates a new, empty CertChain object which is passed 
// in the last argument and filled upon success.

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.CertChain')
$certchainOut = new COM("Chilkat.CertChain");
$success = $cert->BuildCertChain($certchainOut);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $cert->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}
