(PHP ActiveX) PKCS11 Discover Readers and Smart Cards / Tokens

See more PKCS11 Examples

Example showing how to discover the readers (slots) and smart cards and tokens available through a vendor's PKCS11 Cryptoki module.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.88 or later.

// Note: Chilkat's PKCS11 implementation runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and other supported operating systems.
