(C# UWP/WinRT) Encrypt a file to a PKCS7 encrypted message using multiple certificates from different users

Demonstrates how to encrypt a file to a PKCS7 encrypted message using multiple certificates from different users. Any one of the users can decrypt using his/her own certificate + private key.

Note: When doing public key encryption, it is the public key that is used to encrypt. The private key is required for decryption.

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

Chilkat.Crypt2 crypt = new Chilkat.Crypt2();

//  Tell the crypt object to use 3 certificates.
//  Do this by calling AddEncryptCert for each certificate.

//  Load a digital certificate.
//  We don't need the private key for encryption.
//  Only the public key is needed (which is included in a certificate).
Chilkat.Cert cert1 = new Chilkat.Cert();
bool success = cert1.LoadFromFile("qa_data/user1/cert_user1.pem");
//  Assume success for the example, but make sure your application checks for success/failure...
crypt.AddEncryptCert(cert1);

Chilkat.Cert cert2 = new Chilkat.Cert();
success = cert2.LoadFromFile("qa_data/user2/cert_user2.pem");
crypt.AddEncryptCert(cert2);

success = cert3.LoadFromFile("qa_data/user3/cert_user3.pem");
crypt.AddEncryptCert(cert3);

//  Indicate that we want PKI encryption (i.e. public-key infrastructure)
//  to produce a CMS message (Cryptographic Message Syntax/PKCS7),
//  that is be created with RSAES-OAEP padding, SHA256, and AES-128 for the
//  bulk encryption.

//  Load the file to be encrypted...
Chilkat.BinData fileData = new Chilkat.BinData();

//  Your app should check for success/failure..

//  Encrypt the data.  The contents of the fileData object are replaced with the PKCS7 encrypted message.
