Examples

The following example compares two certificates for equality.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Security::Cryptography::X509Certificates;
int main()
{
   
   // The path to the certificate.
   String^ Certificate = "Certificate.cer";
   String^ OtherCertificate = "OtherCertificate.cer";
   
   // Load the certificate into an X509Certificate object.
   X509Certificate^ cert = X509Certificate::CreateFromCertFile( Certificate );
   
   // Load the certificate into an X509Certificate object.
   X509Certificate^ certTwo = X509Certificate::CreateFromCertFile( OtherCertificate );
   
   // Get the value.
   bool result = cert->Equals( certTwo );
   
   // Display the value to the console.
   Console::WriteLine( result );
}

using System;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;

public class X509
{

    public static void Main()
    {

        // The path to the certificate.
        string Certificate =  "Certificate.cer";
        string OtherCertificate =  "OtherCertificate.cer";

        // Load the certificate into an X509Certificate object.
        X509Certificate cert = X509Certificate.CreateFromCertFile(Certificate);

        // Load the certificate into an X509Certificate object.
        X509Certificate certTwo = X509Certificate.CreateFromCertFile(OtherCertificate);

        // Get the value.
        bool result = cert.Equals(certTwo);

        // Display the value to the console.
        Console.WriteLine(result);
    }
}
Imports System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates




Public Class X509
   
   
   Public Shared Sub Main()
      
      ' The path to the certificate.
      Dim Certificate As String = "Certificate.cer"
      Dim OtherCertificate As String = "OtherCertificate.cer"
      
      ' Load the certificate into an X509Certificate object.
      Dim cert As X509Certificate = X509Certificate.CreateFromCertFile(Certificate)
      
      ' Load the certificate into an X509Certificate object.
      Dim certTwo As X509Certificate = X509Certificate.CreateFromCertFile(OtherCertificate)
      
      ' Get the value.
      Dim result As Boolean = cert.Equals(certTwo)
      
      ' Display the value to the console.
      Console.WriteLine(result)
   End Sub  
End Class

Remarks

Two objects are considered equal if they are X509Certificate objects and they have the same issuer and serial number.

Important

The Equals method should not be used when comparing certificates for security purposes. Instead, use a hash of the RawData property, or the Thumbprint property.

Applies to
