Interface CanonicalizationMethod

All Superinterfaces:
AlgorithmMethod, Transform, XMLStructure
public interface CanonicalizationMethod
extends Transform

A representation of the XML CanonicalizationMethod element as defined in the W3C Recommendation for XML-Signature Syntax and Processing. The XML Schema Definition is defined as:

<element name="CanonicalizationMethod" type="ds:CanonicalizationMethodType"/>
     <complexType name="CanonicalizationMethodType" mixed="true">
       <sequence>
         <any namespace="##any" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
           <!-- (0,unbounded) elements from (1,1) namespace -->
       </sequence>
       <attribute name="Algorithm" type="anyURI" use="required"/>
     </complexType>
A CanonicalizationMethod instance may be created by invoking the newCanonicalizationMethod method of the XMLSignatureFactory class.
Since:
1.6

getParameterSpec

AlgorithmParameterSpec getParameterSpec()

Returns the algorithm-specific input parameters associated with this CanonicalizationMethod.

The returned parameters can be typecast to a C14NMethodParameterSpec object.
