Create CAdES-T Signature using Aruba TSA Server (servizi.arubapec.it)

See more CAdES Examples

Demonstrates how to create a signature with an external timestamp (using the Aruba TSA Server) that certifies the time of signing.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.79 or greater.

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

let crypt = chilkat::Crypt2::new();

// This example will use a certificate + private key from a .pfx/.p12 file.
// On Windows systems, it is also possible to use certs on smartcards/usb tokens or certs pre-installed in the Windows registry.
let cert = chilkat::Cert::new();

// Use SHA-256 rather than the default of SHA-1

// Create JSON that tells Chilkat what signing attributes to include:

// A CAdES-T signature is one that includes a timestampToken created by an online TSA (time stamping authority).
// We must include the TSA's URL, as well as a few options to indicate what is desired.
// This example uses the Aruba TSA server, which requires a login/password for the HTTPS request.
let _ = attrs.update_bool("timestampToken.enabled", true);
let _ = attrs.update_string("timestampToken.tsaUrl", "https://servizi.arubapec.it/tsa/ngrequest.php");

// Make sure you are using a version of Chilkat that is no older than v9.5.0.79
