Fields

Name	Value	Description
Success	0	The verification was successful.
InvalidSignature	1	The signature is not valid.
CertificateRequired	2	The X.509 certificate is not available to verify the signature.
InvalidCertificate	3	The X.509 certificate is not valid.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the VerifyResult enumeration.
