X509SelectionFlag Enumeration
Specifies the type of selection requested using the X509Certificate2UI.SelectFromCollection method.
Assembly: System.Security (in System.Security.dll)
This flag represents either a single or multiple certificate selection using the X509Certificate2UI.SelectFromCollection method.
The following code example demonstrates how to use the selection flag with the X509Certificate2UI.SelectFromCollection method. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the X509Store class. The larger example opens the current user's personal certificate store, allows the user to select a certificate, then writes certificate and certificate chain information to the console. The output depends on the certificate the user selects.
'Create new X509 store from local certificate store. Dim store As New X509Store("MY", StoreLocation.CurrentUser) store.Open(OpenFlags.OpenExistingOnly Or OpenFlags.ReadWrite) 'Output store information. Console.WriteLine("Store Information") Console.WriteLine("Number of certificates in the store: {0}", store.Certificates.Count) Console.WriteLine("Store location: {0}", store.Location) Console.WriteLine("Store name: {0} {1}", store.Name, Environment.NewLine) 'Put certificates from the store into a collection so user can select one. Dim fcollection As X509Certificate2Collection = CType(store.Certificates, X509Certificate2Collection) Dim collection As X509Certificate2Collection = X509Certificate2UI.SelectFromCollection(fcollection, "Select an X509 Certificate", "Choose a certificate to examine.", X509SelectionFlag.SingleSelection) Dim certificate As X509Certificate2 = collection(0) X509Certificate2UI.DisplayCertificate(certificate)
