An instance of this class is returned when the ChainElements property is called.
The following code example opens the current user's personal certificate store, allows the user to select a certificate, and then writes certificate and certificate chain information to the console. The output depends on the certificate you select.
//Output chain element information. Console.WriteLine ("Chain Element Information"); Console.WriteLine ("Number of chain elements: {0}", ch.ChainElements.Count); Console.WriteLine ("Chain elements synchronized? {0} {1}", ch.ChainElements.IsSynchronized, Environment.NewLine); foreach (X509ChainElement element in ch.ChainElements) { Console.WriteLine ("Element issuer name: {0}", element.Certificate.Issuer); Console.WriteLine ("Element certificate valid until: {0}", element.Certificate.NotAfter); Console.WriteLine ("Element certificate is valid: {0}", element.Certificate.Verify ()); Console.WriteLine ("Element error status length: {0}", element.ChainElementStatus.Length); Console.WriteLine ("Element information: {0}", element.Information); Console.WriteLine ("Number of element extensions: {0}{1}", element.Certificate.Extensions.Count, Environment.NewLine); if (ch.ChainStatus.Length > 1) { for (int index = 0; index < element.ChainElementStatus.Length; index++) { Console.WriteLine (element.ChainElementStatus[index].Status); Console.WriteLine (element.ChainElementStatus[index].StatusInformation); } } } store.Close();
