ScMinidriver - Delete Smart Card Key Container

See more ScMinidriver Examples

Demonstrates how to delete the contents of a key container on a smart card (or USB token). VBScript

Dim fso, outFile
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
'Create a Unicode (utf-16) output text file.
Set outFile = fso.CreateTextFile("output.txt", True, True)

success = 0

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

'  Chilkat recommends the following free tool for interactively examining the contents of your smart card
'  through the ScMinidriver interface:  MGTEK Tool for Minidriver enabled Smart Cards

'  Let's first look at our smart card..
'  Here's the view of the card we happen to be using: a Gemalto (Thales) IDPrime MD T=0 smart card.

'  

set scmd = CreateObject("Chilkat.ScMinidriver")

'  First we need to acquire a context to the smart card in the reader where it is inserted.
'  Reader names (smart card readers or USB tokens) can be discovered
'  via List Readers or Find Smart Cards
readerName = "Alcor Micro USB Smart Card Reader 0"
success = scmd.AcquireContext(readerName)
If (success = 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(scmd.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If

'  If successful, the name of the currently inserted smart card is available:
outFile.WriteLine("Card name: " & scmd.CardName)

'  To delete the contents of a key container, we'll need to be PIN authenticated..

'  For more details about smart card PIN authentication, see the Smart Card PIN Authentication Example
pinId = "user"
retval = scmd.PinAuthenticate(pinId,"0000")
If (retval <> 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine("PIN Authentication failed.")
    success = scmd.DeleteContext()
    WScript.Quit
End If

'  Let's delete the contents of key container #7
'  This deletes both keys (signature key and "key exchange" key) that might be present in the key container.
'  (It is not possible to delete just one or the other.)
success = scmd.DeleteKeyContainer(7)
If (success = 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(scmd.LastErrorText)
    success = scmd.DeleteContext()
    WScript.Quit
End If

success = scmd.DeleteContext()
outFile.WriteLine("Successfully delete the contents of key container #7")

outFile.Close
