Sign Method

Signs the current message.

Syntax

public func sign() throws -> Void

Remarks

Sign digitally signs the input data with the the specified certificate(s). Certificates are specified by calling AddCertificate or setting the Certificates property.

OutputFormat specifies the encoding of the output message. Valid values are PEM, DER, and SMIME. IncludeCertificates specifies whether the public certificate is included in the signed message. Additional settings allow further configuration. The following properties are applicable when calling this method:

Input and Output Properties

The class will determine the source and destination of the input and output based on which properties are set.

The order in which the input properties are checked is as follows:

When a valid source is found the search stops. The order in which the output properties are checked is as follows:
