Definition

Gets the date in local time after which a certificate is no longer valid.

public:
 property DateTime NotAfter { DateTime get(); };
public DateTime NotAfter { get; }
member this.NotAfter : DateTime
Public ReadOnly Property NotAfter As DateTime

Property Value

A DateTime object that represents the expiration date for the certificate.

Exceptions

The certificate is unreadable.

Examples

The following code example creates a command-line executable that takes a certificate file as an argument and prints various certificate properties to the console.
