Searches an X509Certificate2Collection object using the search criteria specified by the X509FindType enumeration and the findValue object.

public:
 System::Security::Cryptography::X509Certificates::X509Certificate2Collection ^ Find(System::Security::Cryptography::X509Certificates::X509FindType findType, System::Object ^ findValue, bool validOnly);

public System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2Collection Find (System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509FindType findType, object findValue, bool validOnly);

member this.Find : System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509FindType * obj * bool -> System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2Collection

Public Function Find (findType As X509FindType, findValue As Object, validOnly As Boolean) As X509Certificate2Collection

Parameters

findType: X509FindType

One of the X509FindType values.

findValue: Object

The search criteria as an object.

validOnly: Boolean

true to allow only valid certificates to be returned from the search; otherwise, false.

Returns

X509Certificate2Collection

An X509Certificate2Collection object.

Exceptions

CryptographicException

findType is invalid.

Examples

The following code example opens the current user's personal certificate store, finds only valid certificates, allows the user to select a certificate, and then writes certificate and certificate chain information to the console. The output depends on the certificate the user selects.

Remarks

Use this method to find X509Certificate2 objects if no user interaction is needed. Use the Find method to allow the user to select X509Certificate2 objects.

Note that this method can be used in a cascading or nested style, narrowing the search criteria with each call to the method.
