* 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"?>
* <collection Id="root">

* The above XML is available at https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampleData/hmacSigned.xml
* First fetch the XML..

lcUrl = "https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampleData/hmacSigned.xml"
loHttp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Http')
loSbXml = CreateObject('Chilkat.StringBuilder')
lnSuccess = loHttp.QuickGetSb(lcUrl,loSbXml)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loHttp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loHttp
    RELEASE loSbXml
    CANCEL
ENDIF

loVerifier = CreateObject('Chilkat.XmlDSig')

* Load the XML containing the signature to be verified.
lnSuccess = loVerifier.LoadSignatureSb(loSbXml)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loVerifier.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loHttp
    RELEASE loSbXml
    RELEASE loVerifier
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Provide the HMAC key
* The HMAC key for this signature is the us-ascii bytes of the string "secret",
* It can be set in any of the following ways (and also more ways not shown here..)
loVerifier.SetHmacKey("secret","ascii")
* or
loVerifier.SetHmacKey("c2VjcmV0","base64")
* or
loVerifier.SetHmacKey("736563726574","hex")

* Verify the signature
lnBVerified = loVerifier.VerifySignature(1)
? "Signature verified = " + STR(lnBVerified)
