Dim cert As New Chilkat.Cert

// Load a certificate object with a certificate.
// The certificate object could have come from any source,
// or perhaps was obtained from another Chilkat function.
// The source does not matter.  What matters is that we have
// a cert object loaded with the certificate..

    System.DebugLog(cert.LastErrorText)

// Get the binary DER of the certificae, and compute the SHA256 hash:
Dim bdDer As New Chilkat.BinData

// Get the base64 representation of the SHA256 hash.
Dim certHash As String
