(Unicode C) CoSign PKCS7/CMS Signed Data

See more Digital Signatures Examples

Demonstrates how to add a 2nd signature to a CMS SignedData. This is to add an additional signature, SignerInfo and certificate(s) to an existing CMS signed data.

In this example, we cosign an existing pdf.p7s

Note: The CoSign method is added in Chilkat v9.5.0.89.
