Remarks
The class methods, such as ListCertificateStores or ListStoreCertificates, are used to list certificate stores and certificates. The corresponding lists are returned through the StoreList and CertList events. Encoded certificates are provided through the events.
You can load a certificate by setting the Cert property of the class. Then you can get information about the certificate through the corresponding fields of the Cert property (described below).
The CertSubject, CertSerialNumber, and CertIssuer properties identify the certificate. The CertEffectiveDate and CertExpirationDate show the time boundaries of the certificate.
CertPublicKey, CertPublicKeyAlgorithm, CertPublicKeyLength, and CertVersion provide information about the certificate keys and the certificate format (version).
CertUsageFlags specifies the intended usage of the certificate. The CertUsage property provides a text description of these flags.

Config Method (DShippingSDK_CertMgr Class)
Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doConfig($configurationstring);
Procedural Interface
dshippingsdk_certmgr_do_config($res, $configurationstring);
Remarks
Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.
These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.
To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).
To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.
CreateCertificate Method (DShippingSDK_CertMgr Class)
This method creates a new self-signed certificate in the current store.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doCreateCertificate($certsubject, $serialnumber);
Procedural Interface
dshippingsdk_certmgr_do_createcertificate($res, $certsubject, $serialnumber);
Remarks
This method creates a new self-signed certificate in the current store, which contains the following:
CertSubject specifies the subject of the new certificate. A new keyset (public/private key pair) is generated and associated with the new certificate.
The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:
Field | Meaning |
CN | Common Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com. |
O | Organization |
OU | Organizational Unit |
L | Locality |
S | State |
C | Country |
E | Email Address |
If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.
SerialNumber specifies the certificate serial number. All certificates signed by the same issuer must have different (unique) serial numbers.
The time validity of the new certificate is determined by the CertValidityTime configuration setting, and the key size by the CertKeyLength configuration setting.
In the Unix edition of the toolkit, the certificate will be created in memory. Call ExportCertificate to export the newly created certificate to a PEM file.
CreateKey Method (DShippingSDK_CertMgr Class)

On Windows platforms, certificates may be imported only to the Windows certificate store. To load a certificate without importing it to a Windows store, set Cert*.
Certificate files with or without a private key may be imported. If the file specified by CertFile contains a private key, the private key will be imported along with the public certificate. If the file specified by CertFile contains only a public certificate, only the public certificate will be imported.
The Password parameter specifies the certificate password (if any). When importing a public certificate, set Password to an empty string.
The format of the certificate file being imported must contain valid X509 data to be imported. Not all certificate file formats include X509 data, such as PPK or PKCS8 private keys. If the CertFile is of a format that cannot be imported, the class fails with an error.
Note: On Linux-based operating systems, this method loads the specified certificate without importing into any system location.
Subject is optional. If empty, the first certificate in the store is loaded instead of the matching certificate.
ImportCertificate Example
//Import a PFX
certmgr.ImportCertificate("..\\test.pfx", "password", "*");
//Import a public certificate (CER)
certmgr.ImportCertificate("..\\test.cer", "", "*");
ImportSignedCSR Method (DShippingSDK_CertMgr Class)
This method mports a signed Certificate Signing Request (CSR).
Object Oriented Interface
public function doImportSignedCSR($signedcsr, $keyname);
Procedural Interface
dshippingsdk_certmgr_do_importsignedcsr($res, $signedcsr, $keyname);
Remarks
This method will import a signed CSR. SignedCSR specifies a certificate that has been signed by a trusted authority. KeyName is the name of the keyset (public/private key pair) that was used to create the original CSR.
NOTE: This functionality is only available in Windows.
IssueCertificate Method (DShippingSDK_CertMgr Class)
This creates a new certificate in the current store and is signed by the selected certificate.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doIssueCertificate($certsubject, $serialnumber);
Procedural Interface
dshippingsdk_certmgr_do_issuecertificate($res, $certsubject, $serialnumber);
Remarks
This method creates a new certificate in the current store and is signed by the selected certificate. CertSubject specifies the subject of the new certificate. A new keyset (public/private key pair) is generated and associated with the new certificate.
The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:
Field | Meaning |
CN | Common Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com. |
O | Organization |
OU | Organizational Unit |
L | Locality |
S | State |
C | Country |
E | Email Address |
If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.
SerialNumber specifies the certificate serial number. All certificates signed by the same issuer must have different (unique) serial numbers.
The current certificate selected by the class will be used as the issuing certificate.
If no certificate has been selected in the current CertStore before calling this method, or if the selected certificate does not have an associated private key, the method fails with an error.
The time validity of the new certificate is determined by the CertValidityTime configuration setting, and the key size by the CertKeyLength configuration setting.
NOTE: This functionality is only available in Windows.
