Load a PFX from an Encoded String

See more PFX/P12 Examples

Demonstrates Pfx.LoadPfxEncoded, which decodes text using a named binary encoding (such as base64) and loads the resulting bytes as a PFX / PKCS#12 container.

#include <CkPfxW.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    bool success = false;

    CkPfxW pfx;

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

    //  Decode the base64 text into PFX / PKCS#12 bytes and load them.  Common encodings include base64
    //  and hex.
    const wchar_t *encodedPfx = L"MIIKrAIBAzCCCm...base64-encoded-pfx...";
    success = pfx.LoadPfxEncoded(encodedPfx,L"base64",password);
    if (success == false) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",pfx.lastErrorText());
        return;
    }

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