Generate RSA Key and return Base64 PKCS8 Private Key

See more RSA Examples

Demonstrates how to generate a new 2048-bit RSA private key and returns the Base64 encoded PKCS8 representation of the private key. PowerBuilder

integer li_rc
integer li_Success
oleobject loo_Rsa
oleobject loo_PrivKey
string ls_PrivKeyPkcs8Base64

li_Success = 0

loo_Rsa = create oleobject
li_rc = loo_Rsa.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Rsa")
if li_rc < 0 then
    destroy loo_Rsa
    MessageBox("Error","Connecting to COM object failed")
    return
end if

// Generate a 2048-bit key.  Chilkat RSA supports
// key sizes ranging from 512 bits to 8192 bits.
loo_PrivKey = create oleobject
li_rc = loo_PrivKey.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.PrivateKey")

li_Success = loo_Rsa.GenKey(2048,loo_PrivKey)
if li_Success = 0 then
    Write-Debug loo_Rsa.LastErrorText
    destroy loo_Rsa
    destroy loo_PrivKey
    return
end if

// Get the private key in PKCS8 Base64 format
ls_PrivKeyPkcs8Base64 = loo_PrivKey.GetPkcs8ENC("base64")

// The key in base64 format will start similar to this:
// MIIEvAIBADANBgkqhkiG9w0BA...
