Load any format Ed25519 Key

See more Ed25519 Examples

Demonstrates how to load any format Ed25519 private or public key.

Note: Chilkat began support for Ed25519 keys in version 9.5.0.83

Visual FoxPro

LOCAL lnSuccess
LOCAL loPrivKey
LOCAL lcPassword
LOCAL loPubKey

lnSuccess = 0

*  This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
*  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

*  A private key, regardless of type or format (RSA, EC, DSA, Ed25519) can be loaded by
*  calling LoadAnyFormat or LoadAnyFormatFile.

*  Likewise, a public key, regardless of type or format can be loaded by calling
*  LoadFromFile or LoadBd.

*  For example:
loPrivKey = CreateObject('Chilkat.PrivateKey')

*  Pass an empty password if not needed.
lcPassword = ""
lnSuccess = loPrivKey.LoadAnyFormatFile("qa_data/eddsa/ed25519.pem",lcPassword)

*  For example, an encrypted PKCS8 key of any type (Ed25519, RSA, EC, etc.)
lcPassword = "secret"
lnSuccess = loPrivKey.LoadAnyFormatFile("qa_data/rsa/pkcs8.key",lcPassword)

*  The same for public keys..
*  (public keys never have nor need passwords)
loPubKey = CreateObject('Chilkat.PublicKey')
lnSuccess = loPubKey.LoadFromFile("qa_data/pubkeys/pubkey_pkcs1.der")
