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

# Note: Chilkat's PKCS11 implementation runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and other supported operating systems.

$pkcs11 = New-Object Chilkat.Pkcs11

# Use the PKCS11 driver (.dll, .so, .dylib) for your particular HSM.
# For example:
$pkcs11.SharedLibPath = "C:/Program Files (x86)/Gemalto/IDGo 800 PKCS#11/IDPrimePKCS1164.dll"

# Use your HSM's PIN to login.
# If you wish to establish a session without logging in, then set the pin equal to the empty string.
$pin = "0000"

# Normal user = 1
$userType = 1

# Establish a logged-on user session with the HSM.
# The call to QuickSession takes the place of calling Initialize, OpenSession, and Login.
$success = $pkcs11.QuickSession($userType,$pin)
if ($success -eq $false) {
    $($pkcs11.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# Do whatever is needed in your PKCS11 session.
