Demonstrates how to extract the signature value from signed XML. Lianja

llSuccess = .F.

// This example will work with the following signed XML, which as been reformatted for readability.

// There are a number of ways we can get the contents of the  <ds:SignatureValue>...</ds:SignatureValue>

lcFilePath = "qa_data/xml_dsig_testing/sample_to_show_how_to_extract_sig.xml"

// If you know there will only be a single SignatureValue in the XML, you don't need to parse XML.
// Just do quick and simple string search..
// For example:
loSb = createobject("CkStringBuilder")
llSuccess = loSb.LoadFile(lcFilePath,"utf-8")
if (llSuccess = .F.) then
    ? "Failed to load file."
    release loSb

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// If the XML might contain multiple signatures, but the signatures will always be located in the 
// same place, then you can (beforehand) copy a sample signed XML into Chilkat's online tool
// at Generate Parsing Code from XML
// to get the path to the SignatureValue.  For example, the line of code generated for the SignatureValue
// for the above XML is:
// string ds_SignatureValue = xml.GetChildContent("SOAP-ENV:Header|wsse:Security|ds:Signature|ds:SignatureValue");

// So you can simply use that path..
loXml = createobject("CkXml")
llSuccess = loXml.LoadXmlFile(lcFilePath)
// Assume success..

lcBase64Sig = loXml.GetChildContent("SOAP-ENV:Header|wsse:Security|ds:Signature|ds:SignatureValue")
? "base64Sig = " + lcBase64Sig

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Or perhaps you don't know where the signature is located in the XML.
// You can search for the tag..
loXSigVal = loXml.SearchForTag(loXml,"*:SignatureValue")
