ISL_RetrieveSelfCheckKey This function returns the public key of the entity that signed
the add-in credential.
To make this function, the add-in provider needs to ask HP to:
• create a DSA public/private key pair for the add-in provider
• embed the public key in the function whose prototype is shown below.
The private key will be used in the signing process to create a credential file.
void ISL_RetrieveSelfCheckKey(struct data *Name)
{
const unsigned char Key[] = { 0x,......,0x };
