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

*  This example will sign the following SAML AuthNRequest:

*  <samlp:AuthnRequest 
*       xmlns:samlp="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:protocol"
*       xmlns:saml="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:assertion"
*       ID="pfx41d8ef22-e612-8c50-9960-1b16f15741b3"
*       Version="2.0" ProviderName="SP test" IssueInstant="2014-07-16T23:52:45Z"
*       Destination="http://idp.example.com/SSOService.php"
*       ProtocolBinding="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-POST"
*       AssertionConsumerServiceURL="http://sp.example.com/demo1/index.php?acs">
*    <saml:Issuer>http://sp.example.com/demo1/metadata.php</saml:Issuer>
*    <samlp:NameIDPolicy Format="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress" AllowCreate="true"/>
*    <samlp:RequestedAuthnContext Comparison="exact">
*      <saml:AuthnContextClassRef>urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:ac:classes:PasswordProtectedTransport</saml:AuthnContextClassRef>
*    </samlp:RequestedAuthnContext>
*  </samlp:AuthnRequest>

*  First we build the XML to be signed.
