Digital Signature Sample (VBS)

Dim csp
Dim value
Dim pin
Dim dummy

Set csp = CreateObject("aloahacsp.aloaha_csp")

          'value defines the string to be signed
          value = "Hello World"

          'in pin you can specify the PIN of your smartcard
          'leaving PIN empty will cause Aloaha to display a PIN
          'Dialog
          pin = "230800"

          'per default Aloaha delivers PKCS#1 signatures
          'in case a detached PKCS#7 signature is required
          'please uncomment the following line
          'csp.forcePKCS7 = true

          'it is also possible to switch between
          'PKCS #7 attached and detached signatures
          'Aloaha default are detached signatures
          'to create PKCS#7 attached signatures please
          'uncomment the following line
          'attached = true

          'dummy will hold the signature itself
          'the first variable defines the card reader to be used
          'valid values are 0-9

          dummy = csp.simple_sign(1, CStr(value), CStr(pin))

          MsgBox CStr(Len(dummy)\2)+" Bytes:"+vbcrlf+dummy

          'show Certificate shows the certificate used to sign
          'csp.show_Certificate

Set csp = nothing
