Dkim

When set to 1, causes the currently running method to abort. Methods that always finish quickly (i.e.have no length file operations or network communications) are not affected. If no method is running, then this property is automatically reset to 0 when the next method is called. When the abort occurs, this property is reset to 0. Both synchronous and asynchronous method calls can be aborted. (A synchronous method call could be aborted by setting this property from a separate thread.)

If set to a file path, this property logs the LastErrorText of each Chilkat method or property call to the specified file. This logging helps identify the context and history of Chilkat calls leading up to any crash or hang, aiding in debugging.

Enabling the VerboseLogging property provides more detailed information. This property is mainly used for debugging rare instances where a Chilkat method call causes a hang or crash, which should generally not happen.

Possible causes of hangs include:

• A timeout property set to 0, indicating an infinite timeout.
• A hang occurring within an event callback in the application code.
• An internal bug in the Chilkat code causing the hang.

The signing algorithm to be used in creating the DKIM-Signature. Possible values are rsa-sha256 and rsa-sha1. The default value is rsa-sha256.

Optional body length count to set a maximum number of body bytes to be hashed when creating the DKIM-Signature field. The default value is 0, indicating that the entire body should be hashed.

Canonicalization algorithm to be used for both header and body when creating the DKIM-Signature. Possible values are simple and relaxed. The default value is relaxed.

The domain name of the signing domain when creating the DKIM-Signature.

A colon-separated list of header field names that identify headers presented to the signing algorithm when creating the DKIM-Signature. The default value is: mime-version:date:message-id:subject:from:to:content-type.

The selector to be used to form the DNS query for the public key. This property applies to creating a DKIM-Signature. For example, if the selector is reykjavik and the domain is example-code.com, then the DNS query would be for reykjavik._domainkey.example-code.com.

The signing algorithm to be used in creating the DomainKey-Signature. The only possible value is rsa-sha1. The default value is rsa-sha1.

Canonicalization algorithm to be used for when creating the DomainKey-Signature. Possible values are simple and nofws. The default value is nofws.

The domain name of the signing domain when creating the DomainKey-Signature.

A colon-separated list of header field names that identify headers presented to the signing algorithm when creating the DomainKey-Signature. The default value is: mime-version:date:message-id:subject:from:to:content-type.

The selector to be used to form the DNS query for the public key. This property applies to creating a DomainKey-Signature. For example, if the selector is reykjavik and the domain is example-code.com, then the DNS query would be for reykjavik._domainkey.example-code.com.

The interval in milliseconds between each AbortCheck event callback, which enables an application to abort certain method calls before they complete. By default, HeartbeatMs is set to 0, meaning no AbortCheck event callbacks will trigger.

This property is mainly used in SQL Server stored procedures to retrieve binary data from the last method call that returned binary data. It is only accessible if Chilkat.Global.KeepBinaryResult is set to 1. This feature allows for the retrieval of large varbinary results in an SQL Server environment, which has restrictions on returning large data via method calls, though temp tables can handle binary properties.

Provides HTML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Provides plain text information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Provides XML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Indicates the success or failure of the most recent method call: 1 means success, 0 means failure. This property remains unchanged by property setters or getters. This method is present to address challenges in checking for null or Nothing returns in certain programming languages.

In SQL Server stored procedures, this property holds the string return value of the most recent method call that returns a string. It is accessible only when Chilkat.Global.KeepStringResult is set to TRUE. SQL Server has limitations on string lengths returned from methods and properties, but temp tables can be used to access large strings.

The length, in characters, of the string contained in the LastStringResult property.

If set to 1, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is 0. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

Contains JSON with information about the last DKIM or DomainKey signature verified (or verification failure). The JSON will contain information like this:

{
  "domain": "amazonses.com",
  "selector": "7v7vs6w47njt4pimodk5mmttbegzsi6n",
  "publicKey": "MIGfMA0GCSq...z6uqeQIDAQAB",
  "canonicalization": "relaxed/simple",
  "algorithm": "rsa-sha256",
  "signedHeaders": "Subject:From:To:Date:Mime-Version:Content-Type:References:Message-Id:Feedback-ID",
  "verified": "yes"
}

Version of the component/library, such as "10.1.0"

Constructs and prepends a DKIM-Signature header to the MIME passed in mimeData. Prior to calling this method, your program must set both the DkimDomain and DkimSelector properties, and it must load a private key by calling SetDkimPrivateKey.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Verifies the Nth DKIM-Signature header in the mimeData. (In most cases, there is only one signature.) The 1st signature is at sigIndex 0.

On return, the VerifyInfo property will contain additional information about the DKIM-Signature that was verified (or not verified).

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Constructs and prepends a DomainKey-Signature header to the MIME passed in mimeData. Prior to calling this method, your program must set both the DomainKeyDomain and DomainKeySelector properties, and it must load a private key by calling SetDomainKeyPrivateKey.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Verifies the Nth DomainKey-Signature header in the mimeData. (In most cases, there is only one signature.) The 1st signature is at sigIndex 0.

On return, the VerifyInfo property will contain additional information about the DKIM-Signature that was verified (or not verified).

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Caches a public key to be used for verifying DKIM and DomainKey signatures for a given selector and domain. The publicKey is a string containing an RSA public key in any text format, such as XML, PEM, etc. This method will automatically detect the format and load the public key correctly. This method is useful for testing DKIM and DomainKey verification when your public key has not yet been installed in DNS.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Caches a public key to be used for verifying DKIM and DomainKey signatures for a given selector and domain. The publicKeyFilepath is a filepath of an RSA public key in any format. This method will automatically detect the format and load the public key correctly. This method is useful for testing DKIM and DomainKey verification when your public key has not yet been installed in DNS.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Loads the caller of the task's async method.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Returns the number of DKIM-Signature header fields found in mimeData.

Returns the number of DomainKey-Signature header fields found in mimeData.

Useful if your application is going to verify many emails from a single domain (or a few domains). This eliminates the need to do a DNS lookup to fetch the public key each time an email's DKIM or DomainKey signature is verified.

This method may be called multiple times -- once for each selector/domain to be pre-fetched. The verify methods (VerifyDkimSignature and VerifyDomainKeySignature) will use a pre-fetched key if the selector and domain match.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Creates an asynchronous task to call the PrefetchPublicKey method with the arguments provided.

Note: Async method event callbacks happen in the background thread. Accessing and updating UI elements existing in the main thread may require special considerations.

Returns Nothing on failure

Sets the private key file to be used for creating a DKIM-Signature.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Sets the private key file to be used for creating a DomainKey-Signature.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Enables a method call to be aborted by triggering the AbortCheck event at intervals defined by the HeartbeatMs property. If HeartbeatMs is set to its default value of 0, no events will occur. For instance, set HeartbeatMs to 200 to trigger 5 AbortCheck events per second.

VB6 Event callback implementation:

Important: Event callbacks from asynchronous method calls are generally not possible from the ActiveX. See VB6 Event Callbacks

Private Sub myDkim_AbortCheck(abort As Long)

End Sub

This provides the percentage completion for any method involving network communications or time-consuming processing, assuming the progress can be measured as a percentage. This event is triggered only when it's possible and logical to express the operation's progress as a percentage. The pctDone argument will range from 1 to 100. For methods that finish quickly, the number of PercentDone callbacks may vary, but the final callback will have pctDone equal to 100. For longer operations, callbacks will not exceed one per percentage point (e.g., 1, 2, 3, ..., 98, 99, 100).

The PercentDone callback also acts as an AbortCheck event. For fast methods where PercentDone fires, an AbortCheck event may not trigger since the PercentDone callback already provides an opportunity to abort. For longer operations, where time between PercentDone callbacks is extended, AbortCheck callbacks enable more responsive operation termination.

To abort the operation, set the abort output argument to 1. This will cause the method to terminate and return a failure status or corresponding failure value.
