Parameters

gdsEndpointDescriptor

The GDS endpoint acting as OPC UA certificate manager (CM).

parameters

The parameters describing how the certificate should be obtained.

Return Value

The operation is synchronous. It can take considerable time to execute, because it involves multiple steps, and waiting for a finalization of the request by the GDS (see the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Gds.IEasyUACertificateManagement.FinishRequest method).

For an alternative based on asynchronous programming model (APM, System.IAsyncResult) pattern, see the BeginObtainNewCertificate method and related extension methods.

For a task-based asynchronous programming pattern alternative, see the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Application.Extensions.IEasyUAApplicationExtension.ObtainNewCertificateAsync extension method and its overloads.
