// then this code will list the certificates found by the SunMSCAPI provider

try {
KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance("Windows-MY");
ks.load(null, null) ;
Enumeration<String> en = ks.aliases() ;

while (en.hasMoreElements()) {
String aliasKey = (String)en.nextElement() ;
X509Certificate c = (X509Certificate)ks.getCertificate(aliasKey) ;
System.out.println("---> alias : " + aliasKey) ;
System.out.println(" Certificat subjectDN : " + c.getSubjectDN() ) ;
System.out.println(" Certificat issuerDN : " + c.getIssuerDN() ) ;
}
