Verify and Unwrap S/MIME, and get Information about CMS Signature

See more MIME Examples

Demonstrates calling the Verify method to verify and unwrap S/MIME. The MIME is restored to the original structure that it would have originally had prior to signing. The Verify method works with both detached signatures, as well as opaque/attached signatures.

Calls LastJsonData to get information about the signature(s) that were verified.

var success = false;

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

var mime = new CkMime();

// Load the signed MIME from a file...
success = mime.LoadMimeFile("qa_data/mime/detached_sig.eml");
if (success == false) {
    console.log(mime.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Verify the S/MIME and restore the MIME
// to the structure/content it had prior to signing.
var verified = mime.Verify();
if (verified == false) {
    console.log(mime.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Examine the details of what was verified.
var json = new CkJsonObject();
mime.GetLastJsonData(json);

json.EmitCompact = false;
console.log(json.Emit());
