(PHP Extension) Load .crl, Convert to XML, Get Revoked Serial Numbers and Dates

Load a binary .crl file (Certificate Revocation List), converts to XML, and then gets the revoked certificate serial numbers and revocation dates.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.77 or greater.

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
