Parameters

allCertificates

Remarks

This method is a helper method that is used to help in deciding which certificates have to be generated for a given operation. The method also helps determine which certificates have to be retrieved from the server. Typically, the certificates supplied to this call would be obtained by calling the FindCertificates method.

Multiple CertificatesFilterFlags values can be combined with a bit-wise OR operator to indicate multiple filters. The resulting collection will include only the certificates that match all the specified filters.
