Generates a fingerprint for an SSH key. Android™

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

  private static final String TAG = "Chilkat";

  // Called when the activity is first created.
  @Override

    // Load an SSH key from an encrypted OpenSSH-formatted private key:
    key.put_Password("secret");

    String keyStr;
    // First load the PEM into a string:
    keyStr = key.loadText("privkey_openssh_encrypted.pem");

    // Import into the SSH key object:
    success = key.FromOpenSshPrivateKey(keyStr);

    // A sample fingerpring looks like this:

      // then you will see the following error message at application startup:
      //"The application <your-application-name> has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
