I assume you are using the Apache XML Security APIs and not the standard
JSR 105 API. In that case, try calling the following static methods
before you sign/encrypt your data:
to set the dsig prefix to "":
org.apache.xml.security.utils.Constants.setSignatureSpecNSprefix("");
to set the enc prefix to "":
org.apache.xml.security.utils.ElementProxy.setPrefix(org.apache.xml.security.encryption.EncryptionConstants.EncryptionSpecNS,
"");
Let me know if that works.
