This is generated from the built in components of BuildMaster 7.0.0, and may be different than what you have installed (especially if you have extensions); go to [User Icon] -> Documentation within your BuildMaster instance to see exactly what operations are available.

Sign Binary

Signs .exe or .dll files using an installed code signing certificate.

Script usage:

Sign-Exe(
	SubjectName: <text>,
	[TimestampServer: <text>],
	[ContentDescription: <text>],
	[ContentUrl: <text>],
	Include: <@(text)>,
	[Exclude: <@(text)>],
	[SignToolPath: <text>],
	[SourceDirectory: <text>]
);

This operation may be prefixed with Windows::, although this is a built-in namespace and isn't really necessary.
