Add EncapsulatedTimestamp to Already-Signed XML

See more XML Digital Signatures Examples

Demonstrates how to add an EncapsulatedTimestamp to an existing XML signature.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.90 or greater.

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

# Note: We cannot load the already-signed XML into a Chilkat XML object because it would re-format the XML when re-emitted.
# (i.e. indentation and whitespace could change, and it would invalidate the existing signature.)
# We must use a StringBuilder.
