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

;  To create an ECDSA signature, the data first needs to be hashed.  Then the hash
;  is signed.

$oCrypt = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Crypt2")
$oCrypt.HashAlgorithm = "SHA256"
$oCrypt.Charset = "utf-8"
$oCrypt.EncodingMode = "base64"

;  Hash a string.
Local $sHash1 = $oCrypt.HashStringENC("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog")
ConsoleWrite("hash1 = " & $sHash1 & @CRLF)

;  -----------------------------------------------------------
;  An ECDSA private key is used for signing.  The public key is for signature verification.
;  Load our ECC private key.
;  Our private key file contains this:

;  	// -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
;  	MIGHAgEAMBMGByqGSM49AgEGCCqGSM49AwEHBG0wawIBAQQg3J8q/24D1sEKGdP9
;  	72MGYElLGpw/a56Y3t6pfON3uhShRANCAATlSmoizyhAwoYZAOuFBATl07/1RR54
;  	a1Dzfm16grxJe666AGKR+bSs24hk7TEpaeCTvT8YOOM3l+xKFg7zq6Q9
;  	-----END PRIVATE KEY-----

$oPrivKey = ObjCreate("Chilkat.PrivateKey")
$bSuccess = $oPrivKey.LoadPemFile("qa_data/ecc/secp256r1-key-pkcs8.pem")
If ($bSuccess <> True) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oPrivKey.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

;  Sign the hash..
$oPrng = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Prng")
$oEcdsa = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Ecc")
Local $sEcdsaSigBase64 = $oEcdsa.SignHashENC($sHash1,"base64",$oPrivKey,$oPrng)

    ConsoleWrite($oEcdsa.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

;  The ECDSA signature is ASN.1 that contains a sequence of 2 large integers (r and s)
;  For example:
;  SEQUENCE (2 elem)
;    INTEGER (255 bit) 792134D9B4AD82D5431ED03835A88E2596EB35E5B13054BD9B05A0069281ACC9
;    INTEGER (255 bit) 481E758CC1E3CBF825537EC3D9A2CA627E5FAD1137BBEA65DF38658DCB0A9ED5

ConsoleWrite("Base64 ECDSA signature = " & $sEcdsaSigBase64 & @CRLF)

;  If the raw R and S values are needed, here's how to get them:
$oAsn = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Asn")
$bSuccess = $oAsn.LoadEncoded($sEcdsaSigBase64,"base64")
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oAsn.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

;  The R and X will be in hexidecimal in the XML.
$oXml = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Xml")
$oXml.LoadXml($oAsn.AsnToXml())
ConsoleWrite($oXml.GetXml() & @CRLF)

;  The XML looks like this:
;  <sequence>
;  <int>792134D9B4AD82D5431ED03835A88E2596EB35E5B13054BD9B05A0069281ACC9</int>
;  <int>481E758CC1E3CBF825537EC3D9A2CA627E5FAD1137BBEA65DF38658DCB0A9ED5</int>
;  </sequence>

;  Copy raw R and S hex values into a Chilkat BinData object.
$oBd = ObjCreate("Chilkat.BinData")
Local $sR = $oXml.GetChildContent("int[0]")
Local $s = $oXml.GetChildContent("int[1]")
$oBd.AppendEncoded($sR,"hex")
$oBd.AppendEncoded($s,"hex")

ConsoleWrite("Number of bytes in bd: " & $oBd.NumBytes & @CRLF)
