Verify XML Signature with External Data Reference

See more XML Digital Signatures Examples

Demonstrates how to verify an XML digital signature where the data is external. In this case, the data is a JPG file.

This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.69 or greater.

Tcl

load ./chilkat.dll

set success 0

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

# The XML containing the Signature to be verified contains the following:
# <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
