Sign JSON to Create CAdES P7S Bytes

See more CAdES Examples

Demonstrates how to sign JSON using a certificate + private key from a .p12/.pfx to create a CAdES P7S byte array. Go

    success := false

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

    // The CadesEnabled property applies to all methods that create PKCS7 signatures. 
    // To create a CAdES-BES signature, set this property equal to true.
