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

//  First build a sample (but incomplete) GovTalkMessage.
//  You can replace this code with a call to LoadXml or LoadXmlFile..
// 
//  Note: The online tool at https://tools.chilkat.io/xmlCreate.cshtml
//  can be used to generate XML code that creates a given XML document.
Chilkat.Xml xml = new Chilkat.Xml();
xml.Tag = "GovTalkMessage";
xml.AddAttribute("xmlns","http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/CM/envelope");
xml.UpdateAttrAt("Body|Message",true,"xmlns","urn:g3.ge:dea:call:SendDocument:v1");
xml.UpdateChildContent("Body|Message","................");

//  This is the XML created:
//  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
//  <GovTalkMessage xmlns="http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/CM/envelope">
//      <Body>
//          <Message xmlns="urn:g3.ge:dea:call:SendDocument:v1">................</Message>
//      </Body>
//  </GovTalkMessage>

Debug.WriteLine(xml.GetXml());

//  Canonicalize the XML (using C14N)
Chilkat.XmlDSig xdsig = new Chilkat.XmlDSig();
bool withComments = false;
string canonXml = xdsig.CanonicalizeXml(xml.GetXml(),"C14N",withComments);

//  Return the base64 SHA-1 HASH of the canonical XML.
Chilkat.Crypt2 crypt = new Chilkat.Crypt2();
crypt.HashAlgorithm = "sha1";
crypt.EncodingMode = "base64";
string irmark = crypt.HashStringENC(canonXml);

Debug.WriteLine("IRMark = " + irmark);
