//  Most of the time a .jks contains one certificate with it's associated private key.
//  (Similar to how a .pfx/.p12 usually contains a particular certificate with private key.)
//  This example demonstrates how to get the certificate with private key such that it can be used
//  by other Chilkat classes wherever a cert w/ private key is needed.
