(Perl) Workaround for the deprecated Crypt2.OpaqueVerifyBytesENC method

Shows how to replace the deprecated OpaqueVerifyBytesENC method. (Chilkat is moving away from the use of CkByteData.)

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.

use chilkat();

$crypt = chilkat::CkCrypt2->new();

$crypt->put_EncodingMode("base64");

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The OpaqueVerifyBytesENC method is deprecated:

$outData = chilkat::CkByteData->new();

$success = $crypt->OpaqueVerifyBytesENC("base64 encoded p7m",$outData);

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Workaround.
# (Chilkat is moving away from using CkByteData)

$bd = chilkat::CkBinData->new();
$bd->AppendEncoded("base64 encoded p7m","base64");

# If the opaque signature is validated, the contents of bd are replaced with the original data that was signed.
# 
$success = $crypt->OpaqueVerifyBd($bd);
