EID Exception: The root certificate is incorrect? about eidlib

[KrOverdulve]

Hmm that's strange. Perhaps a reader problem or something? If you initialize the library to allow test cards, is the data read correctly then?

I dont have any test cards so I wouldn't know :/
If it were a reader problem, would it still work with the demo app?

[KrOverdulve]

Well the library just does not verify the root certificate when you enable test cards. Does not mean you need to test with a test card. Call it a less strict version of the library :-). Just construct your BeID instance by 'new BeID(true)' and show the results.

Ok, weird stuff: the beid instance was already initialize with the 'true' parameter.
I managed to solve the problem by putting the getIDAddress call in a try catch block. This not only solved the issue but also allowed that the address was being read.
Seriously: no idea how that is possible...
