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

let scmd = chilkat::ScMinidriver::new();

// via List Readers or Find Smart Cards

// If successful, the name of the currently inserted smart card is available:
println!("Card name: {}", scmd.card_name());

// Change the "user" PIN.  (Typically, you'll always be using the "user" PIN.)
