Combine Timestamp Reply and Content File into a TimeStampData

See more ASN.1 Examples

Demonstrates how to combine a timestamp reply (RFC 3161) with a data file (any type of file) to create a TimeStampData structure (RFC 5544).

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

# Also see this example:
# Send a TimeStamp Request to a TimeStamp Authority and get the Response

# Load a timestamp reply file
$bdTsr = chilkat::CkBinData->new();
$success = $bdTsr->LoadFile("qa_data/tsd/sample.tsr");

# Get the timestamp reply as XML.

# The timestamp reply XML begins like this:
# We'll want to remove the 1st "sequence" subtree.

#     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
#     <sequence>
#         <sequence>       <---- Remove this sub-tree.
#             <int>00</int>
#             <sequence>
#                 <utf8>Operation Okay</utf8>
#             </sequence>
#         </sequence>
#         <sequence>   
#             <oid>1.2.840.113549.1.7.2</oid>

# Remove the 1st sub-tree..
