(C#) Load a CSR and Get the SANs (Subject Alternative Names)

Demonstrates how to load a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and get the Subject Alternative Names (if any).

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.91 or greater.

Chilkat .NET Downloads Chilkat .NET Framework Chilkat for .NET Core

// Note: Requires Chilkat v9.5.0.91 or greater.

// This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Chilkat.Csr csr = new Chilkat.Csr();

// Load a CSR PEM file.  The file should contain content that looks like this:
//
