) 

Parameters

application

The OPC UA client application object that will perform the operation.

gdsEndpointDescriptor

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

progress

A provider for progress updates.

Return Value

The operation is asynchronous, 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 a synchronous alternative, see the ObtainNewCertificate(IEasyUAApplication,UAEndpointDescriptor) extension method and its overloads.

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