Demonstrates how to include the SigningCertificateV2 authenticated attribute in a CMS (.p7m/.p7s) signature. PHP Extension

<?php

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

$crypt = new CkCrypt2();

// Tell the crypt component to use this cert.
$success = $crypt->SetSigningCert($cert);

    print $crypt->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;

// The CadesEnabled property applies to all methods that create PKCS7 signatures. 
// To create a CAdES-BES signature, set this property equal to true. 
$crypt->put_CadesEnabled(true);

$crypt->put_HashAlgorithm('sha256');

// We can sign any type of file, creating a .p7s as output.
// The .p7s contains the signature and also embeds the data of the file that is signed.
$inFile = 'qa_data/pdf/sample.pdf';

$jsonSigningAttrs = new CkJsonObject();

// This is where we specify for the signingCertificateV2 attribute to be included:
$jsonSigningAttrs->UpdateInt('signingCertificateV2',1);

$crypt->put_SigningAttributes($jsonSigningAttrs->emit());

// By default, all the certs in the chain of authentication are included in the signature.
// If desired, we can choose to only include the signing certificate:
$crypt->put_IncludeCertChain(false);

// Create the CAdES-BES attached signature, which contains the original data.
// Note: Chilkat's function naming is not accurate.  CreateP7M creates a PKCS7 signature where the signed file
// is contained within the signature.  CreateP7S creates a detached PKCS7 signature where the signed file
// is NOT contained within the signature.  We want the data to be contained in the signature, therefore
// we call CreateP7M even though we are naming our output file .p7s.
$success = $crypt->CreateP7M($inFile,$p7sFile);
