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.

.NET Core C#

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.

Chilkat.Pkcs11 pkcs11 = new Chilkat.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.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.
string pin = "0000";
int userType = 1;
success = pkcs11.QuickSession(userType,pin);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(pkcs11.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

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