Create CAdES-T Signature using Aruba TSA Server (servizi.arubapec.it)

See more CAdES Examples

Demonstrates how to create a signature with an external timestamp (using the Aruba TSA Server) that certifies the time of signing.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.79 or greater.

* This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
* See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

loCrypt = CreateObject('Chilkat.Crypt2')

* This example will use a certificate + private key from a .pfx/.p12 file.
* On Windows systems, it is also possible to use certs on smartcards/usb tokens or certs pre-installed in the Windows registry.
loCert = CreateObject('Chilkat.Cert')

lcPfxPath = "qa_data/pfx/myCertAndKey.p12"

ENDIF

lnSuccess = loCrypt.SetSigningCert(loCert)

* Use SHA-256 rather than the default of SHA-1
loCrypt.HashAlgorithm = "sha256"

* Create JSON that tells Chilkat what signing attributes to include:
loAttrs = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonObject')
loAttrs.UpdateBool("contentType",1)
loAttrs.UpdateBool("signingTime",1)
loAttrs.UpdateBool("messageDigest",1)
loAttrs.UpdateBool("signingCertificateV2",1)

* A CAdES-T signature is one that includes a timestampToken created by an online TSA (time stamping authority).
* We must include the TSA's URL, as well as a few options to indicate what is desired.
* This example uses the Aruba TSA server, which requires a login/password for the HTTPS request.
loAttrs.UpdateBool("timestampToken.enabled",1)
loAttrs.UpdateString("timestampToken.tsaUrl","https://servizi.arubapec.it/tsa/ngrequest.php")

* The tsaUsername/tsaPassword feature was added in Chilkat v9.5.0.79.
* Make sure you are using a version of Chilkat that is no older than v9.5.0.79
loAttrs.UpdateString("timestampToken.tsaUsername","arubaTsaUsername")
loAttrs.UpdateString("timestampToken.tsaPassword","arubaTsaPassword")

loAttrs.UpdateBool("timestampToken.addNonce",0)

loCrypt.SigningAttributes = loAttrs.Emit()

lcInFile = "qa_data/json/sample.json"
lcOutFile = "qa_output/sample_cades_t.p7m"

* This creates the CAdES-T signature.  During the signature creation, it
* communicates with the TSA to get a timestampToken.
