Example C Program: Listing System and Physical Stores
The following example enumerates the system certificate store locations, the system certificate stores, and the physical stores associated with each system store. This example demonstrates the creation of callback functions and callback functions that call other callback functions.
This example illustrates the following CryptoAPI functions:
This example also uses the function MyHandleError. Code for this function is included with the sample. Code for this and other auxiliary functions is also listed under General Purpose Functions.
