DetachedSignatureData Property

The detached signature.

Syntax

 cms.getDetachedSignatureData([callback])
 cms.setDetachedSignatureData( detachedSignatureData_Buffer, [callback])

Default Value

""

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getDetachedSignatureData([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, buffer){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'buffer' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setDetachedSignatureData([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This setting is used to specify the detached signature before calling VerifySignature. The message data should be specified normally and this property should be set to the detached signature data. This may be set to the PEM, DER, or SMIME encoded signature message.
