CSecureChannelClient::SetCertificate

banner art

The SetCertificate method specifies the certificate and private key of the secure authenticated channel (SAC) client.

Syntax

HRESULT SetCertificate(DWORDdwFlags,BYTE*pbAppCert,DWORDdwCertLen,BYTE*pbAppPVK,DWORDdwPVKLen);

Parameters

dwFlags

[in]  Specifies the type of certificate being passed to this method. It must be set to SAC_CERT_V1.

pbAppCert

[in]  Pointer to the first byte of the certificate of the SAC client.

dwCertLen

[in]  DWORD specifying the length of the certificate to which pbAppCert points.

pbAppPVK

[in]  Pointer to the first byte of the private key of the SAC client.

dwPVKLen

[in]  DWORD specifying the length of the private key to which pbAppPVK points.

Return Values

The method returns an HRESULT. All the interface methods in Windows Media Device Manager can return any of the following classes of error codes:

  • Standard COM error codes
  • Windows error codes converted to HRESULT values
  • Windows Media Device Manager error codes

For an extenstive list of possible error codes, see Error Codes.

Possible values include, but are not limited to, those in the following table.

Return code Description
S_OK The method succeeded.
E_INVALIDARG A parameter is invalid or is a NULL pointer.
E_FAIL An unspecified error occurred.

Remarks

Call the SetCertificate method immediately after creating the CsecureChannelClient object, as in the following Example Code.

You can specify the following dummy values for pbAppCert and pbAppPVK to will allow basic functionality:

BYTE abPVK[] = {0x00};
BYTE abCert[] = {0x00};

You can request a key and certificate from Microsoft as described in Tools for Development.

Example Code

The following C++ code authenticates the Windows Media Device Manager session and acquires the root object.

// Authenticates the WMDM, and acquires an interface to the top-level object.
HRESULT MyClass::Authenticate()
{
    HRESULT hr;
    CComPtr<IComponentAuthenticate> pAuth;

    // Create the WMDM object and acquire 
    // its authentication interface.
    hr = CoCreateInstance(
        __uuidof(MediaDevMgr),
        NULL,
        CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,
        __uuidof(IComponentAuthenticate),
        (void**)&pAuth);

    if (hr != S_OK)
        return hr;

    // Create the secure channel client class needed to authenticate the application.
    // We'll use a global member variable to hold the secure channel client
    // in case we need to handle encryption, decryption, or MAC verification
    // during this session.
    m_pSAC = new CSecureChannelClient;
    if (m_pSAC == NULL)
        return E_FAIL;

    // Send the application's transfer certificate and the associated 
    // private key to the secure channel client.
    hr = m_pSAC->SetCertificate(        SAC_CERT_V1,        (BYTE *)abCert, sizeof(abCert),        (BYTE *)abPVK,  sizeof(abPVK));    if (hr != S_OK)        return hr;
            
    // Send the authentication interface we created to the secure channel 
    // client and try authenticating the application with the V1 protocol.
    m_pSAC->SetInterface(pAuth);
    hr = m_pSAC->Authenticate(SAC_PROTOCOL_V1);
    if (hr != S_OK)
        return hr;

    // Authenticated succeeded, so we can use the WMDM.
    // Acquire an interface to the top-level WMDM interface.
    hr = pAuth->QueryInterface(__uuidof(IWMDeviceManager), (void**)&m_IWMDeviceMgr);


    return hr;
}
