Encrypt MIME using a digital certificate to create PKCS7 encrypted S/MIME. Android™

// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.
package com.test;

import android.app.Activity;
import com.chilkatsoft.*;

import android.widget.TextView;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class SimpleActivity extends Activity {

  private static final String TAG = "Chilkat";

  // Called when the activity is first created.
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    boolean success = false;

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

    CkMime mime = new CkMime();

    // Build a simple MIME message to be encrypted:
    success = mime.AddHeaderField("Content-Type","text/plain");
    success = mime.AddHeaderField("abc","123");
    mime.SetBody("This is a test");

    // A digital certificate is required to create PKCS7 encrypted MIME.
    // It can come from a variety of sources: .cer file, .pfx file, PEM files,
    // an in-memory representation, or directly from a Windows
    // registry-based certificate store.

    // This example will load a certificate object from a .cer file.
    // Note: Only the public-key is required to encrypt.  (Decryption
    // requires a private key.)

    CkCert cert = new CkCert();
    success = cert.LoadFromFile("myCert.cer");
    if (success == false) {
        Log.i(TAG, cert.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    // Encrypt the MIME:
    success = mime.Encrypt(cert);
    if (success == false) {
        Log.i(TAG, mime.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    // Display the MIME:
    Log.i(TAG, mime.getMime());

    // The resulting S/MIME looks something like this:

    // abc: 123
    // Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smime.p7m"
    // Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
    // Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-mime;
