Remarks

The ID of the pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

Asynchronous DCAuth-driven communication requires that parties authenticate each other with a secret pre-shared cryptographic key. This provides extra protection layer for the protocol and diminishes the risk of private key becoming abused by foreign parties. Use this property to provide the pre-shared key identifier, and use ExternalCryptoKeySecret to pass the key itself.

The same KeyID/KeySecret pair should be used on the DCAuth side for the signing requests to be accepted.

Note: The KeyID/KeySecret scheme is very similar to the AuthKey scheme used in various Cloud service providers to authenticate users.

Example: signer.ExternalCrypto.KeyID = "MainSigningKey"; signer.ExternalCrypto.KeySecret = "abcdef0123456789";

Data Type

String

Remarks

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object. Use this property to assign objects of the same type in a quicker manner, without copying them fieldwise.

When you pass a handle of one object to another, the source object is copied to the destination rather than assigned. It is safe to get rid of the original object after such operation. pdfSigner.setSigningCertHandle(certMgr.getCertHandle());

The $signingchainindex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the SigningChainCount property.

This property is not available at design time.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doAttachFile($filename);

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_mailwriter_do_attachfile($res, $filename);

AttachImage Method (SecureBlackbox_MailWriter Class)

Creates an image attachment from a memory buffer.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doAttachImage($id, $data);

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_mailwriter_do_attachimage($res, $id, $data);

Config Method (SecureBlackbox_MailWriter Class)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doConfig($configurationstring);

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_mailwriter_do_config($res, $configurationstring);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

DoAction Method (SecureBlackbox_MailWriter Class)

Performs an additional action.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doDoAction($actionid, $actionparams);

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_mailwriter_do_doaction($res, $actionid, $actionparams);

Remarks

DoAction is a generic method available in every class. It is used to perform an additional action introduced after the product major release. The list of actions is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.

The unique identifier (case insencitive) of the action is provided in the ActionID parameter.

ActionParams contains the value of a single parameter, or a list of multiple parameters for the action in the form of PARAM1=VALUE1;PARAM2=VALUE2;....

SaveToBytes Method (SecureBlackbox_MailWriter Class)

Serializes the message to a byte array.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doSaveToBytes();

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_mailwriter_do_savetobytes($res);

Remarks

Use this method to assemble the message and save it to a byte array.

SaveToFile Method (SecureBlackbox_MailWriter Class)

Serializes the message to a file.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doSaveToFile($filename);

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_mailwriter_do_savetofile($res, $filename);

Remarks

Use this method to assemble the message and save it to a file.

Error Event (SecureBlackbox_MailWriter Class)

Reports information about errors during e-mail message assembling or saving.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireError($param);

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_mailwriter_register_callback($res, 1, array($this, 'fireError'));

Parameter List

 'errorcode'
 'description'

Remarks

The event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing.

ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error.

ExternalSign Event (SecureBlackbox_MailWriter Class)

Handles remote or external signing initiated by the SignExternal method or other source.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireExternalSign($param);

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_mailwriter_register_callback($res, 2, array($this, 'fireExternalSign'));

Parameter List

 'operationid'
 'hashalgorithm'
 'pars'
 'data'
 'signeddata'

Remarks

Assign a handler to this event if you need to delegate a low-level signing operation to an external, remote, or custom signing engine. Depending on the settings, the handler will receive a hashed or unhashed value to be signed.

The event handler must pass the value of Data to the signer, obtain the signature, and pass it back to the component via SignedData parameter.

OperationId provides a comment about the operation and its origin. It depends on the exact component being used, and may be empty. HashAlgorithm specifies the hash algorithm being used for the operation, and Pars contain algorithm-dependent parameters.

The component uses base16 (hex) encoding for Data, SignedData, and Pars parameters. If your signing engine uses a different input and output encoding, you may need to decode and/or encode the data before and/or after the signing.

A sample MD5 hash encoded in base16: a0dee2a0382afbb09120ffa7ccd8a152 - lower case base16 A0DEE2A0382AFBB09120FFA7CCD8A152 - upper case base16

A sample event handler that uses a .NET RSACryptoServiceProvider class may look like the following: signer.OnExternalSign += (s, e) => { var cert = new X509Certificate2("cert.pfx", "", X509KeyStorageFlags.Exportable); var key = (RSACryptoServiceProvider)cert.PrivateKey; var dataToSign = e.Data.FromBase16String(); var signedData = key.SignHash(dataToSign, "2.16.840.1.101.3.4.2.1"); e.SignedData = signedData.ToBase16String(); };

Notification Event (SecureBlackbox_MailWriter Class)

This event notifies the application about an underlying control flow event.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireNotification($param);

Procedural Interface

secureblackbox_mailwriter_register_callback($res, 3, array($this, 'fireNotification'));

Parameter List

 'eventid'
 'eventparam'

Remarks

The class fires this event to let the application know about some event, occurrence, or milestone in the component. For example, it may fire to report completion of the document processing. The list of events being reported is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.

The unique identifier of the event is provided in EventID parameter. EventParam contains any parameters accompanying the occurrence. Depending on the type of the component, the exact action it is performing, or the document being processed, one or both may be omitted.

Config Settings (MailWriter Class)

The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.
