(Swift 3,4,5...) Create CAdES p7m using USB Token or Smartcard on iOS iPhone

See more Signing in the Cloud Examples

Demonstrates how to create a CAdES p7m, using an HSM (USB token or smart card) connected to an iPhone.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v10.0.0 or greater.

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

    // When signing with a USB token or smartcard, the only coding difference is how the certificate
    // gets loaded.  To load the default certificate from the connected USB token or smartcard, just call
    // LoadFromSmartcard with an empty string argument.
    // 
    // This requires Chilkat v10.0.0 or later.
    // 
    // ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    // Important: In your Xcode project, you'll need to add the "com.apple.token" entitlement.
    // Also, adding the com.apple.token in the "Project > Signing & Capabilities" will actually add $(AppIdentifierPrefix)com.apple.token, which does not work. 
    // Edit the entitlements file directly and add only com.apple.token
    // If using a Yubikey, you'll only find the certificate if it is added in the Yubikey app as Public.
    // ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
