ICEnroll::get_RootStoreName method (xenroll.h)

[This property is no longer available for use as of Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista.]

The RootStoreName property sets or retrieves the name of the root store where all intrinsically trusted, self-signed root certificates are kept.

The default value for this property is "ROOT". Because of the level of trust associated with the root store, the user may be prompted (by means of the user interface) to accept the certificate. Although this property need not be changed for many applications, to avoid the user interface associated with trusting root certificates, a possibility is to set RootStoreName to "CA".

This property was first defined in the ICEnroll interface.

This property is read/write.

Syntax

HRESULT get_RootStoreName(
  BSTR *pbstrName
);

Parameters

pbstrName

Return value

None

Remarks

RootStoreName affects the behavior of the following methods:

• acceptPKCS7
• acceptFilePKCS7

The ability to set this property is disabled when the Certificate Enrollment Control is executed as a scripted control.

Examples

BSTR     bstrStoreName = NULL;
HRESULT  hr;

// pEnroll is previously instantiated ICEnroll interface pointer

// get the storename
hr = pEnroll->get_RootStoreName( &bstrStoreName );
if ( FAILED ( hr ) )
    printf("Failed getting RootStoreName - %x\n", hr );
else
    printf( "RootStoreName: %ws\n", bstrStoreName );
// free BSTR when done
if ( NULL != bstrStoreName )
    SysFreeString( bstrStoreName );

// set the storename
// bstrNewName is a BSTR that is previously set to a valid store name
hr = pEnroll->put_RootStoreName( bstrNewName );
if ( FAILED ( hr ) )
    printf("Failed setting RootStoreName - %x\n", hr );
else
    printf( "RootStoreName was set to : %ws\n", bstrNewName );
