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.

Dim success As Boolean = False

Dim pfx As New Chilkat.Pfx

'  The PFX password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
Dim password As String = "myPfxPassword"

'  Decode the base64 text into PFX / PKCS#12 bytes and load them.  Common encodings include base64
'  and hex.
Dim encodedPfx As String = "MIIKrAIBAzCCCm...base64-encoded-pfx..."
success = pfx.LoadPfxEncoded(encodedPfx,"base64",password)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(pfx.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If

Debug.WriteLine("Loaded " & pfx.NumCerts & " certificate(s).")
