PKCS11 Find all Public Keys

See more PKCS11 Examples

Demonstrates how to list all public keys on an HSM.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.96 or later.

C++

#include <CkPkcs11.h>
#include <CkJsonObject.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    bool success = false;

    // 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.

    CkPkcs11 pkcs11;

    // Use the PKCS11 driver (.dll, .so, .dylib) for your particular HSM.
    // (The format of the path will change with the operating system.  Obviously, "C:/" is not used on non-Windows systems.
    pkcs11.put_SharedLibPath("C:/Program Files (x86)/Gemalto/IDGo 800 PKCS#11/IDPrimePKCS1164.dll");

    // Establish a logged-on session. (We can typically skip the login by passing an empty PIN if only needing to list public keys)
    // Use your actual PIN here, or an empty string to skip login.
    const char *pin = "0000";
    int userType = 1;
    success = pkcs11.QuickSession(userType,pin);
    if (success == false) {
        std::cout << pkcs11.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";
        return;
    }

    // Note: To find public keys, we need a session, but it doesn't necessarily need to be logged-on.

    CkJsonObject json;
    json.put_EmitCompact(false);

    success = pkcs11.FindAllKeys("public",json);
    if (success == false) {
        std::cout << pkcs11.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";
        return;
    }
