Problem with latest SigPlusNET.dll

[wjstarck]

I have a problem with the latest SigPlusNET.dll when I try to r:un 7.9.19 or 11.0.x (I think it was just added today)?

I've tried remaking the references but I get the same error.


System.IO.FileLoadException was unhandled

OK, NVM.

Had to manually clean the prior version from the /bin folder.

Hello.

I have been trying replacing the library SigPlusNET.dll with a more modern version (ver. 2.0.0.42) looking for resolve some problems. It seems to work ok, but it does not shows previous signatures.
Any suggestions?

Thanks.

David.

There are multitudes of issue with switching how the signatures are generated, so my guess is that the newer dll might be doing it slightly differently. If the signature control cannot "read" the old signature as valid, it is shown as blank. There are two components to having a correct signature, the signature string that is stored in that database, and the key that is generated by the data the signature is attributed to. If either of those have differed from what they were when they were signed, the signature is considered invalid. On top of that if any settings on the dll generating the signature has changed, or the dll itself works differently there is a good chance it will also be invalidated because of the algorithms used to encrypt the signature string. If that encryption doesn't work the exact same way as it did when it the signature was captured, it will be invalid.

That being said, there were also several issues with signatures keys being invalidated over versions due to the way new line characters were stored. This is especially prevalent when using middle tier. Most of these bugs have been fixed in past versions (allow both /r/n and /n as valid new line characters in the key), but I also fixed a lot of the issues for topaz pads in 16.1 that had not already been fixed.

Tl:Dr; Changing the dll version can invalidate any signatures captured in the past (using a different dll).
