(PHP ActiveX) AddDetachedSignaturePk

Demonstrates how to add a detached signature using a certifcate and it's corresponding private key. The easiest way of doing it is when both the certificate and private key are contained together within a PFX (.pfx or .p12) file. This example demonstrates how to use the certificate and its corresponding private key when they are stored in separate files -- a .cer for the certificate, and a .pem for the private key.

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

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Mime')
$mime = new COM("Chilkat.Mime");

// Load the certificate from a .cer file.
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Cert')

$success = $cert->LoadFromFile('aaworkarea/myCert.cer');
if ($success == 0) {

    exit;
}

// Load the private key from an encrypted PEM file.
// (A private key can be loaded from other file formats also..)
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.PrivateKey')
$privKey = new COM("Chilkat.PrivateKey");
$success = $privKey->LoadEncryptedPemFile('aaworkarea/myPrivateKey.pem','myPassword');
