ImportFromStream Method

Loads a certificate from a stream.

Syntax

• C++

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int ImportFromStream(SecureBlackboxStream* sCertStream, const char* lpszPassword);

Unicode (Windows)
INT ImportFromStream(SecureBlackboxStream* sCertStream, LPCWSTR lpszPassword);

#define MID_CERTIFICATEMANAGER_IMPORTFROMSTREAM 19

SECUREBLACKBOX_EXTERNAL int SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL SecureBlackbox_CertificateManager_Do(void *lpObj, int methid, int cparam, void *param[], int cbparam[], int64 *lpllVal);

Remarks

This method can load certificates saved in one of the following formats: DER, PEM, PFX, SPC.

Use the CertStream parameter to provide a stream containing the certificate data, and Password to specify the password. The Password parameter is optional. If it is omitted and it is later discovered that the certificate is password-encrypted, the PasswordNeeded event will be fired to request it.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
