Serialize a PFX to BinData

See more PFX/P12 Examples

Demonstrates Pfx.ToBd, which serializes the current PFX contents as PKCS#12 data into a BinData object, using the supplied output password.

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    let pfx = CkoPfx()!

    //  The file path is relative to the application's current working directory.  An absolute path
    //  may also be used.  Supply the path appropriate to your own environment.
    //  The PFX password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
    var password: String? = "myPfxPassword"
    success = pfx.loadFile(path: "qa_data/identity.pfx", password: password)
    if success == false {
        print("\(pfx.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    //  Serialize the PFX contents as PKCS#12 data into a BinData, using the given output password.
    var outputPassword: String? = "myOutputPassword"
    let bd = CkoBinData()!
    success = pfx.toBd(password: outputPassword, bd: bd)
    if success == false {
        print("\(pfx.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("Serialized \(bd.numBytes.intValue) bytes of PKCS#12 data.")
