(Classic ASP) Duplicate openssl dgst -sha256 -sign private.pem -out sha256.sig in.dat

Demonstrates how to duplicate this OpenSSL command:

openssl dgst -sha256 -sign private.pem -out sha256.sig in.dat

The in.dat file can contain text or binary data of any type. The OpenSSL command does the following:

Creates a SHA256 digest of the contents of the input file
Signs the SHA256 digest using the private key.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.
