Load Java KeyStore and Access Contents

See more Java KeyStore (JKS) Examples

Loads a Java keystore file and iterates over the contents. A Java keystore (.jks) file can contain one or more trusted root certificate entries and/or one or more private key entries. Each private key entry includes an associated certificate chain. Chilkat2-Python

# This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.

# to verify the keyed digest that is found at the very end of the keystore.
# It verifies there has been no tampering with the file.
