(Tcl) Create XML Signature with KeyInfo / X509Data / X509IssuerSerial

This example demonstrates how to create an XML Digital Signature where the KeyInfo element contains an X509Data element,
which in turn contains an X509IssuerSerial element which contains only the issuing cert's distinguished name and the signing cert's serial number.

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

# To begin, we'll need a PFX containing a certificate and private key, and the SOAP XML to be signed.
# Chilkat provides sample data at chilkatsoft.com and chilkatdownload.com, and our first step is to download.

# -------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Step 1: Get the SOAP XML to be signed.
# 
set sbXml [new_CkStringBuilder]

set http [new_CkHttp]

set success [CkHttp_QuickGetSb $http "https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampleData/soapToSign.xml" $sbXml]
if {$success != 1} then {
    puts [CkHttp_lastErrorText $http]
    delete_CkStringBuilder $sbXml
    delete_CkHttp $http
    exit
}

# The SOAP XML contains this:

# <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>
# <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
#     <SOAP-ENV:Header>
#         <wsse:Security xmlns:wsse="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd" SOAP-ENV:mustUnderstand="1"></wsse:Security>
#     </SOAP-ENV:Header>
#     <SOAP-ENV:Body xmlns:SOAP-SEC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/security/2000-12" SOAP-SEC:id="Body">
#         <z:FooBar xmlns:z="http://example.com" />
#     </SOAP-ENV:Body>
# </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

# -------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Step 2: Get the test certificate and private key stored in a .pfx
# 
set pfxData [new_CkBinData]

set success [CkHttp_QuickGetBd $http "https://chilkatdownload.com/example_data/testcertificate.pfx" $pfxData]
if {$success != 1} then {
    puts [CkHttp_lastErrorText $http]
    delete_CkStringBuilder $sbXml
    delete_CkHttp $http
    delete_CkBinData $pfxData
    exit
}

set pfx [new_CkPfx]

set password "test"
set success [CkPfx_LoadPfxEncoded $pfx [CkBinData_getEncoded $pfxData "base64"] "base64" $password]
if {$success != 1} then {
    puts [CkPfx_lastErrorText $pfx]
    delete_CkStringBuilder $sbXml
    delete_CkHttp $http
    delete_CkBinData $pfxData
    delete_CkPfx $pfx
    exit
}

# -------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Step 3: Get the certificate from the PFX.
# 
# cert is a CkCert
set cert [CkPfx_GetCert $pfx 0]
if {[CkPfx_get_LastMethodSuccess $pfx] != 1} then {
    puts [CkPfx_lastErrorText $pfx]
    delete_CkStringBuilder $sbXml
    delete_CkHttp $http
    delete_CkBinData $pfxData
    delete_CkPfx $pfx
    exit
}

# Prepare for signing...
set gen [new_CkXmlDSigGen]

# Indicate where the Signature will be inserted.
CkXmlDSigGen_put_SigLocation $gen "SOAP-ENV:Envelope|SOAP-ENV:Header|wsse:Security"

# Add a reference to the fragment of the XML to be signed.

# Note: "Body" refers to the XML element having an "id" equal to "Body", where "id" is case insensitive
# and where any namespace might qualify the attribute.  In this case, the SOAP-ENV:Body fragment is signed
# NOT because the tag = "Body", but because it has SOAP-SEC:id="Body"
CkXmlDSigGen_AddSameDocRef $gen "Body" "sha1" "EXCL_C14N" "" ""

# (You can read about the SignedInfoPrefixList in the online reference documentation.  It's optional..)
CkXmlDSigGen_put_SignedInfoPrefixList $gen "wsse SOAP-ENV"

# Provide the private key for signing via the certificate, and indicate that
# we want only the Issuer's DN and serial number of the certificate embedded in the KeyInfo.
CkXmlDSigGen_put_KeyInfoType $gen "X509Data"
CkXmlDSigGen_put_X509Type $gen "IssuerSerial"

# Note: Because our certificate was loaded from a PFX which also contained the private key,
# Chilkat automatically knows and has the private key associated with the certificate.
# We set bUsePrivateKey to tell the SetX509Cert method to automatically use the private key
# associated with the certificate for signing.  If, for example, we obtained the certificate
# by loading from a .cer file, then we would not already have the associated private key.
# In that case, the application could explicitly load the cert's private key from some
# other source, such as a .key, .pem, etc. and then call gen.SetPrivateKey.
set bUsePrivateKey 1
set success [CkXmlDSigGen_SetX509Cert $gen $cert $bUsePrivateKey]
if {$success != 1} then {
    puts [CkXmlDSigGen_lastErrorText $gen]
    delete_CkCert $cert

    delete_CkBinData $pfxData
    delete_CkPfx $pfx

# Everything's specified.  Now create and insert the Signature
