(Ruby) Transition from Cert.ExportPublicKey to Cert.GetPublicKey

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated ExportPublicKey method calls with GetPublicKey.

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

Chilkat Ruby Downloads install from rubygems.org gem install chilkat or download... Ruby Library for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Alpine Linux

require 'chilkat'

cert = Chilkat::CkCert.new()

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The ExportPublicKey method is deprecated:

# publickeyObj is a CkPublicKey
publickeyObj = cert.ExportPublicKey()
if (cert.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false)
    print cert.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# ...
# ...

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

publickeyOut = Chilkat::CkPublicKey.new()
success = cert.GetPublicKey(publickeyOut)
if (success == false)
    print cert.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end
