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

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

#  Use the PKCS11 driver (.dll, .so, .dylib) for your particular HSM.

#  Establish a logged-on session. (We can typically skip the login by passing an empty PIN if only working with public keys)
#  Use your actual PIN here, or an empty string to skip login.

#  Get the handle of the public key we wish to export.
#  You can find public keys in many different ways.
