Hi there,
I'm using the XML-security package for a Java project.
I have this problem with as you describe it "vanishing attribute namespace prefixes". I tried the workaround (described in Mikolaj Habryn's message of Thu, 16 Sep 2004 19:05:56) but that didn't help me. I did the following:
* I create message1 (document) and add a element with namespace. * I serialize it into message2 (documentToBeSigned) like this:
OutputFormat format = new OutputFormat(document,"UTF-8",false);
ByteArrayOutputStream arrayOutputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer(arrayOutputStream,format);
serializer.setNamespaces(true);
serializer.asDOMSerializer();
serializer.serialize(document.getDocumentElement());
Document documentToBeSigned = documentBuilder.parse(new ByteArrayInputStream(arrayOutputStream.toByteArray()));
* I sign message2 and yes Mikolaj is right about the namespace being
added and the signing succeeding, but there are empty namespace
attributes all over the place (like this: xmlns="").
* I "cut" the signature from message2
* I import the message in message1 and all looks fine.But when I try to verify message1 it fails. I think because I think the appearing xmlns="" 's in the message are taken into account when signing the message (?) and my backup message doesn't have them. (Am I doing something wrong here?).
I have a couple of questions: Is this problem fixed and is it checked into the CVS repository? Is the 1.2 release you are working on going to fix this problem? Is this problem logged as a bug and can I track it?
Thanks anyway,
Joris Wijlens
