Signing.java example uses now deprecated BouncyCastle APIs

[Open eSignForms <yo...@gmail.com>]

I am looking at PDFBox-SignExample.zip which I think was referenced at
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-912 by Thomas Chojecki on
04/Apr/11 to the download link:
http://media-nation.de/~rayman2200/PDFBox-SignExample.zip

I am trying to use pdfbox 1.7.0 with BounceCastle 1.47 and it shows the
following methods in BC as deprecated:

      gen.addSigner(privKey, (X509Certificate)certList.get(0),
CMSSignedGenerator.DIGEST_SHA256);
      gen.addCertificatesAndCRLs(certStore);
      CMSSignedData signedData = gen.generate(input, false, provider);

Has anybody done this using the newer BC methods? I have the keys and X.509
certificate (but without using a BC/Java keystore) and it works as is, but
not sure how to change it to support non-deprecated APIs.  Yes, this is
probably a BC issue, but I figured the person who wrote the original code
may have a good handle on this as it was being used directly in a PDFBox
signing example.

Thanks for any pointers...

Hi,
I have done this for the new BC API and it work a bit easier.

You can take a look here:

http://www.bouncycastle.org/wiki/display/JA1/BC+Version+2+APIs

Also you can check the javadoc for the CMSSignedDataGenerator, it  
contian an example

http://deic-dc0.uab.es/sc/bouncyCastleAPICerts/org/bouncycastle/cms/CMSSignedDataGenerator.html

If you google for this classes you will hopefully find some more examples.

Best regards
Thomas
