(PowerBuilder) Generate RSA Key and Export to Encrypted PEM

PowerBuilder sample showing how to generate an RSA key and export to encrypted PEM.

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

Chilkat ActiveX Downloads ActiveX for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows

integer li_rc
integer li_Success
oleobject loo_Rsa
oleobject loo_PrivKey
string ls_StrEncPem

li_Success = 0

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

loo_Rsa = create oleobject
li_rc = loo_Rsa.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Rsa")
if li_rc < 0 then
    destroy loo_Rsa
    MessageBox("Error","Connecting to COM object failed")
    return
end if

// Generate a 1024-bit key.  Chilkat RSA supports
// key sizes ranging from 512 bits to 4096 bits.
loo_PrivKey = create oleobject
li_rc = loo_PrivKey.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.PrivateKey")

li_Success = loo_Rsa.GenKey(1024,loo_PrivKey)
if li_Success = 0 then
    Write-Debug loo_Rsa.LastErrorText
    destroy loo_Rsa
    destroy loo_PrivKey
    return
end if

ls_StrEncPem = loo_PrivKey.GetPkcs8EncryptedPem("myPassword")

// You now have the private key in an encrypted format,
// which may be (for example) saved to a database.

Write-Debug ls_StrEncPem


destroy loo_Rsa
