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

    var rsa = new chilkat.Rsa();

    // First demonstrate importing a PEM public key:
    var publicKeyPem = "PEM public-key data goes here";
    var pubkey = new chilkat.PublicKey();

    success = pubkey.LoadFromString(publicKeyPem);

    // Demonstrate importing a PEM private key:
    var privateKeyPem = "PEM private-key data goes here";
    var privkey = new chilkat.PrivateKey();

    // If the private key PEM is protected with a password, then 
    // call LoadEncryptedPem.  Otherwise call LoadPem.
