Xbase++ Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+
Xbase++
Generate a CSR with keyUsage, extKeyUsage, and other Extensions
See more CSR Examples
Demonstrates how to generate a CSR containing a 1.2.840.113549.1.9.14 extensionRequest with the following extensions:- 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.20.2 enrollCerttypeExtension
- 2.5.29.15 keyUsage
- 2.5.29.37 extKeyUsage
- 2.5.29.14 subjectKeyIdentifier

// a pre-existing CSR with the same desired extensionRequest. You can use Chilkat to
// get the extensionRequest from an existing CSR.
