This blog post describes the case where your application asks Chilkat to produce an LTV-enabled PDF signature by specifying “ltvOcsp” in the signing attributes, yet the signed PDF as viewed in Adobe Acrobat does not show the signature as being LTV enabled. For example, in Adobe Acrobat, an LTV enabled signature looks like this: You can see the message “Signature […]
In Android, network permissions are necessary for applications that want to establish network connections and use sockets to communicate over the internet. These permissions are declared in the AndroidManifest.xml file, and they inform the Android system about the specific capabilities an application requires. For applications that use sockets and perform network-related operations, the following permissions are commonly used: 1. INTERNET […]
Question: I need to sign a PDF with a certificate and a signed hash returned from a 3rd party. Answer: It’s possible, and it’s a feature that was introduced in the latest version of Chilkat (v9.5.0.96). However, it requires a well-defined REST API (or something similar) where Chilkat can make the REST API call from within the PDF signing process. […]
Question: In my Visual FoxPro program, accessing the IsConnected property on a ChilkatSocket hangs when a “ReceiveUntilByteBdAsync” is run immediately after connecting the socket. Here is a minimal reproducible example: LOCAL loSocket loSocket = CreateObject(‘Chilkat_9_5_0.Socket’) loSocket.connect(‘127.0.0.1’, 8945, .f., 5000) &&used external socket server to be sure it was unrelated loBinData = CreateObject(‘Chilkat_9_5_0.BinData’) loTask = loSocket.ReceiveUntilByteBdAsync(ASC(‘Z’), loBinData) ?loSocket.IsConnected &&works loTask.run() ?loSocket.IsConnected […]
Question: While trying to send an email with an attachment of size 9MB from my application, I get an error. Interestingly, the file gets delivered to the email address still we get the error in the application. Answer: Looking at the MailMan.LastErrorText for the call to SendEmail, we can see this: ChilkatLog: SendEmail: … ReadTimeout: 30000 … … sendCmdToSmtp: SmtpCmdSent: […]
Question: I have seen that your lib support OAuth2 for DataFlex-Framework but only for Desktop-Clients. Is it correct or is there any support for DataFlex-Web-Applications? Answer: The functionality Chilkat provides in desktop applications for the OAuth2 authorization code flow, is to make your desktop application behave as a temporary web server to receive the single local HTTP redirect request from […]
This post shows how to register an Azure Application that supports OAuth2 Client Credentials. 1. Register an Application You’ll most likely choose a single-tenant application. (See explanation of Azure single-tenant vs multi-tenant applications.) You can leave the Redirect URI blank. 2. Note your Application (client) ID and Directory (tenant) ID Make note of your client ID and tenant ID. It […]
The distinction between single-tenant and multi-tenant Azure applications lies in how these applications handle user access and authentication across different Azure AD tenants (directories). Single-Tenant Azure Application: A single-tenant application is designed to serve users from a single Azure AD tenant (directory). It is registered in and can authenticate users only from that specific Azure AD tenant. It is used […]
OAuth2 Client Credentials can be used for authentication when you own the application, and you also own the account (such as Office 365, or Google, etc.) that your application will access. In other words, YOUR application is simply accessing resources in YOUR account, and YOU are the application user (or your application is running as a service or background process). […]

It is a singleton class that allows an application to select the DNS nameservers used throughout Chilkat. The term “singleton” means that all Chilkat DNS object instances work with a […]
