Serialize a PFX to an Encoded String

See more PFX/P12 Examples

Demonstrates Pfx.ToEncodedString, which serializes the current PFX contents and returns the PKCS#12 bytes encoded as text using a named encoding.

#include <CkPfxW.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.
    //  The PFX password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
    const wchar_t *password = L"myPfxPassword";
    success = pfx.LoadPfxFile(L"qa_data/identity.pfx",password);
    if (success == false) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",pfx.lastErrorText());
        return;
    }

    //  Serialize the PFX contents using the given output password and return the PKCS#12 bytes encoded as
    //  text.  Common encodings include base64 and hex.
    const wchar_t *outputPassword = L"myOutputPassword";
    const wchar_t *encoded = pfx.toEncodedString(outputPassword,L"base64");
    if (pfx.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",pfx.lastErrorText());
        return;
    }

    wprintf(L"%s\n",encoded);
