(Unicode C++) Sign String to create a CAdES-T Signature

This example will sign a string to create a CAdEST-T signature.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.78 or greater.

    // A CAdES-T signature is one that includes a timestampToken created by an online TSA (time stamping authority).

    // This creates the CAdES-T signature.  During the signature creation, it
    // communicates with the TSA to get a timestampToken.
    // The contents of bd are signed and replaced with the CAdES-T signature (which embeds the original content).
    success = crypt.OpaqueSignBd(bd);

        return;

    // Get the signature in base64 format:
    wprintf(L"%s\n",bd.getEncoded(L"base64_mime"));

    // Or save the signature to a file.
