| michael@0 | 41 | SAMPLE APPLICATIONS |
| michael@0 | 42 | |
| michael@0 | 43 | Currently, there are two performance applications: libpkix_buildThreads and |
| michael@0 | 44 | nss_threads. And three sample applications: dumpcert, dumpcrl and |
| michael@0 | 45 | validateChain.. |

| michael@0 | 47 | ============================================================================ |
| michael@0 | 48 | |
| michael@0 | 49 | USAGE: dumpcert <certFile> |
| michael@0 | 50 | Parses a certificate located at <certFile> and displays it. |

| michael@0 | 77 | USAGE: libpkix_buildthreads <duration> <threads> <eecertNickname> |
| michael@0 | 78 | |
| michael@0 | 79 | Sets up and runs a PKIX_BuildChain call for the number of seconds |
| michael@0 | 80 | specified by <duration> using the number of threads specified by |
| michael@0 | 81 | <threads>. This application assumes that the NSS certutil application |
| michael@0 | 82 | has already been run to create the NSS databases and that the |
| michael@0 | 83 | various nicknames on the command line have been associated with |
| michael@0 | 84 | certificates in the NSS databases. The NSS databases MUST reside |
| michael@0 | 85 | in the directory where this file is located and MUST be named |
| michael@0 | 86 | "cert8.db", "key3.db", and "secmod.db". There must exist a nickname |
| michael@0 | 87 | in the databases which has been marked as trusted. |
