Module java.xml.crypto
Package javax.xml.crypto.dsig
Classes for generating and validating XML digital
signatures. This package includes classes that represent the core elements
defined in the W3C XML digital signature specification:
XMLSignature,
SignedInfo,
CanonicalizationMethod,
SignatureMethod,
Reference,
DigestMethod,
XMLObject,
Manifest,
SignatureProperties, and
SignatureProperty.
KeyInfo types
are defined in the javax.xml.crypto.dsig.keyinfo subpackage.
XMLSignatureFactory
is an abstract factory that creates
XMLSignature objects from scratch
or from a pre-existing XML representation, such as a DOM node.
TransformService is a service provider
interface for creating and plugging in implementations of
transform and canonicalization algorithms.
Of primary significance in this package is the
XMLSignature class,
which allows you to sign and validate an XML digital signature.
