(Xojo Plugin) Generate a CSR containing an Extension Request

See more CSR Examples

Demonstrates how to generate a CSR containing a 1.2.840.113549.1.9.14 extensionRequest.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.91 or greater.

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

// This example will generate a secp256r1 ECDSA key for the CSR.
Dim ecc As New Chilkat.Ecc
Dim prng As New Chilkat.Prng

Dim privKey As Chilkat.PrivateKey
privKey = ecc.GenEccKey("secp256r1",prng)
If (ecc.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    System.DebugLog("Failed to generate a new ECDSA private key.")
    Return
End If

Dim csr As New Chilkat.Csr

// Add common CSR fields:
csr.CommonName = "mysubdomain.mydomain.com"
csr.Country = "GB"
csr.State = "Yorks"
csr.Locality = "York"
csr.Company = "Internet Widgits Pty Ltd"
csr.EmailAddress = "support@mydomain.com"

// Add the following 1.2.840.113549.1.9.14 extensionRequest
// Note: The easiest way to know the content and format of the XML to be added is to examine
// a pre-existing CSR with the same desired extensionRequest.  You can use Chilkat to
// get the extensionRequest from an existing CSR. 

// 
// Here is a sample extension request:

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
// <set>
//    <sequence>
//        <sequence>
//            <oid>1.3.6.1.4.1.311.20.2</oid>
