Encrypt a File to a PKCS7 (CMS) Message

Shows how to encrypt a file into a PKCS7 encrypted message using the recipient's certificate. Public-key encryption requires no private key. However, the recipient's private key is necessary for decryption. Delphi DLL

// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// Load the recipient's digital certificate. 
// We don't need the private key for encryption.
// Only the public key is needed (which is included in a certificate).

success := CkCert_LoadFromFile(cert1,'qa_data/user1/cert_user1.pem');
// Assume success for the example, but make sure your application checks for success/failure...

// Indicate that we want PKI encryption (i.e. public-key infrastructure)
// to produce a CMS message (Cryptographic Message Syntax/PKCS7),
// that is be created with RSAES-OAEP padding, SHA256, and AES-256 for the
// bulk encryption.

// Your app should check for success/failure..
