ScMinidriver - Get Public Keys from Smart Card Key Container

See more ScMinidriver Examples

Demonstrates how to query a key container on a smart card (or USB token) to get the public part of the private keys that are present. A key container can hold two separate private keys -- one in the "signature" position, and the other in the "key exchange" position.

    // Chilkat recommends the following free tool for interactively examining the contents of your smart card
    // through the ScMinidriver interface:  MGTEK Tool for Minidriver enabled Smart Cards

    // Let's first look at our smart card..
    // Here's the view of our Gemalto (Thales) IDPrime MD T=0 smart card in the MGTEK tool:

    // First we need to acquire a context to the smart card in the reader where it is inserted.
    // Reader names (smart card readers or USB tokens) can be discovered
    // via List Readers or Find Smart Cards

    // We likely shouldn't need to authenticate with the smart card (use a PIN) to simply get a public key,
    // so we can skip the PIN authenticatin step..
