WMRMLicenseRevocationChallenge.GetMachinePublicKey

The GetMachinePublicKey method retrieves the public key for the client computer from the license revocation challenge.

Syntax

  String = WMRMLicenseRevocationChallenge
  .GetMachinePublicKey

Parameters

This method takes no parameters.

Return Values

If the method succeeds, it returns a String containing the client computer's public key. If it fails, it returns a number in the error object.

Remarks

The public-private key pair of the client computer is used for secure communications. The license revocation response is encrypted using the public key, and is decrypted on the client using its private key.
