(Delphi ActiveX) Generate a CSR containing an Extension Request

See more CSR Examples

Demonstrates how to generate a CSR containing a 1.2.840.113549.1.9.14 extensionRequest.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.91 or greater.

// Add the following 1.2.840.113549.1.9.14 extensionRequest
// Note: The easiest way to know the content and format of the XML to be added is to examine
// a pre-existing CSR with the same desired extensionRequest.  You can use Chilkat to
// get the extensionRequest from an existing CSR. 

// 
// Here is a sample extension request:

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
