Parameters

Signature - newly created signature will be placed here
SignatureClass - …
SubjectSignature - signature to be signed
TimeStamp - time stamp
Key - subkey to be bound to the key
EmbeddedSignature - if Key can be used for signingthe second signature can be placed here. This parameter is optional.
PublicKey - some public key
User - the TElPGPUserIDor TElPGPUserAttr object that specifies the owner of the Key
CertType - certification type
HashFunction - …

Protection type values

[.NET] [C++]	[Pascal]	Description
ctGeneric = 0	ctGeneric	Generic certification of a User ID and Public Key packet. The issuer of this certification does not make any particular assertion as to how well the certifier has checked that the owner of the key is in fact the person described by the User ID. By default user certifications use Generic type
ctPersona = 1	ctPersona	Persona certification of a User ID and Public Key packet. The issuer of this certification has not done any verification of the claim that the owner of this key is the User ID specified
ctCasual = 2	ctCasual	Casual certification of a User ID and Public Key packet. The issuer of this certification has done some casual verification of the claim of identity
ctPositive = 3	ctPositive	Positive certification of a User ID and Public Key packet. The issuer of this certification has done substantial verification of the claim of identity

Description

    Use this method to produce different kinds of signatures.
    (1) Makes a third-party certification of the SubjectSignature.
    (2) Produces a timestamp signature.
    (3) Produces a subkey/primary key binding signature.
    (4) Produces a user certification signature.
    (5) Used to add signature trailer to MD context.
