RSA Sign utf-8 Byte Representation of String

See more RSA Examples

Demontstrates how to sign the utf-8 byte representation of a string. 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)

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

' Load an RSA private key for signing.
set privKey = CreateObject("Chilkat.PrivateKey")
success = privKey.LoadEncryptedPemFile("qa_data/pem/rsa_passwd.pem","passwd")
If (success = 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(privKey.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If

set rsa = CreateObject("Chilkat.Rsa")
success = rsa.UsePrivateKey(privKey)
If (success = 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(rsa.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If

originalData = "This is the string to be hashed an RSA signed."

' Indicate that we want the utf-8 byte representation of the string to be signed
