AutoIt

Sign a Byte Array to Create a Detached Signature in a Byte Array

See more Digital Signatures Examples

Signs data contained in a byte array to produce a detached signature (also in a byte array). Also shows how to verify the signature. AutoIt

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

;  We can sign any type of file.
;  The result is a detached signature (a signature that does not contain the data being signed).

;  We can verify the detached signature like this
