Include the SigningCertificateV2 Authenticated Attribute in CAdES (CMS) Signature

See more CAdES Examples

Demonstrates how to include the SigningCertificateV2 authenticated attribute in a CMS (.p7m/.p7s) signature. Zig

const std = @import("std");

pub fn main(init: std.process.Init) !void {
    const alloc = init.arena.allocator();

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

    const crypt = try chilkat.Crypt2.init();
    defer crypt.deinit();

    const cert = try chilkat.Cert.init();
    defer cert.deinit();
    cert.loadPfxFile("qa_data/pfx/cert_test123.pfx", "test123") catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try cert.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    // Tell the crypt component to use this cert.
    crypt.setSigningCert(cert) catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try crypt.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    // The CadesEnabled property applies to all methods that create PKCS7 signatures.
    // To create a CAdES-BES signature, set this property equal to true.
    crypt.setCadesEnabled(true);

    crypt.setHashAlgorithm("sha256");

    // We can sign any type of file, creating a .p7s as output.
    // The .p7s contains the signature and also embeds the data of the file that is signed.
    const in_file = "qa_data/pdf/sample.pdf";

    const json_signing_attrs = try chilkat.JsonObject.init();

    json_signing_attrs.updateInt("signingCertificateV2", 1) catch {};

    crypt.setSigningAttributes(try json_signing_attrs.emit(alloc));

    // By default, all the certs in the chain of authentication are included in the signature.
    // If desired, we can choose to only include the signing certificate:
    crypt.setIncludeCertChain(false);

    // Create the CAdES-BES attached signature, which contains the original data.
    // Note: Chilkat's function naming is not accurate.  CreateP7M creates a PKCS7 signature where the signed file
    // is contained within the signature.  CreateP7S creates a detached PKCS7 signature where the signed file
    // is NOT contained within the signature.  We want the data to be contained in the signature, therefore
    // we call CreateP7M even though we are naming our output file .p7s.
    crypt.createP7M(in_file, p7s_file) catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try crypt.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
