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

'  Note: Chilkat's PKCS11 implementation runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and other supported operating systems.

Dim pkcs11 As ChilkatPkcs11
pkcs11.Initialize

'  Use the PKCS11 driver (.dll, .so, .dylib) for your particular HSM.
'  For example:
pkcs11.SharedLibPath = "C:/Program Files (x86)/Gemalto/IDGo 800 PKCS#11/IDPrimePKCS1164.dll"

'  Use your HSM's PIN to login.
'  If you wish to establish a session without logging in, then set the pin equal to the empty string.
Dim pin As String = "0000"

'  Normal user = 1
Dim userType As Int = 1

'  Establish a logged-on user session with the HSM.
'  The call to QuickSession takes the place of calling Initialize, OpenSession, and Login.
success = pkcs11.QuickSession(userType, pin)
If success = False Then
    Log(pkcs11.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If
