Version 1.4 doesnt' generate the same XML as V1.3: A default namespace is used for XMLSIG and this causes problem!

[Hess Yvan]

Hi,

 

Due to a problem in XML security library version 1.3 that was not thread safe, I got the version xmlsec-1.4.Beta0.jar. Doing some test I detected that the generated XML encryption block of XML encrypted document is NOT THE SAME in version 1.4 and in the version 1.3. Version 1.4 sets a DEFAULT namespace for xmldsig and for example the KeyInfo element is written as <KeyInfo> instead of <ds:KeyInfo> as before. The fact that a default namespace is used causes problems in my application. Please can you help me to solve this problem and give me some solution to solve it.

 

Thanks in advance
