RSA Sign Using Private Key from .pfx/.p12 to Base64 Signature

See more RSA Examples

Demonstrates how to RSA sign something using a private key loaded from a .pfx/.p12. The RSA signature is returned in Base64 encoded format. Delphi DLL

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

//  Load the .pfx/.p12

if (success = False) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(CkPfx__lastErrorText(pfx));

//  Get the default private key.

success := CkPfx_PrivateKeyAt(pfx,0,privKey);
if (success = False) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(CkPfx__lastErrorText(pfx));

if (success = False) then
  begin

//  Sign the string using the sha256 hash algorithm.
