Load a PFX from BinData

See more PFX/P12 Examples

Demonstrates Pfx.LoadPfxBd, which loads a PFX / PKCS#12 container from the bytes held in a BinData object.

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.

#include <CkPfxW.h>
#include <CkBinDataW.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    bool success = false;

    CkPfxW pfx;

    //  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.
    //  Load the PFX bytes into a BinData.
    CkBinDataW bd;
    bool bLoaded = bd.LoadFile(L"qa_data/identity.pfx");
    if (bLoaded != true) {
        wprintf(L"Failed to load the PFX file.\n");
        return;
    }

    //  The PFX password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
    const wchar_t *password = L"myPfxPassword";

    //  Load the PFX / PKCS#12 container from the bytes held in the BinData.
    success = pfx.LoadPfxBd(bd,password);
    if (success == false) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",pfx.lastErrorText());
        return;
    }

    wprintf(L"Loaded %d certificate(s).\n",pfx.get_NumCerts());
    }
