RSA Sign Using Private Key from .pfx/.p12 to Base64 Signature

See more RSA Examples

Demonstrates how to RSA sign something using a private key loaded from a .pfx/.p12. The RSA signature is returned in Base64 encoded format. VBScript

Dim fso, outFile
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
'Create a Unicode (utf-16) output text file.
Set outFile = fso.CreateTextFile("output.txt", True, True)

success = 0

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

set rsa = CreateObject("Chilkat.Rsa")

' Load the .pfx/.p12
set pfx = CreateObject("Chilkat.Pfx")
success = pfx.LoadPfxFile("qa_data/pfx/myKey.p12","myPassword")
If (success = 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(pfx.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit

' Get the default private key.

set privKey = CreateObject("Chilkat.PrivateKey")
success = pfx.PrivateKeyAt(0,privKey)
If (success = 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(pfx.LastErrorText)

' Import the private key into the RSA component:

    outFile.WriteLine(rsa.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If
