Hi all,

Why is not possible to delete the "final" declaration of the org.apache.xml.security.signature.XMLSignature ?

Thanks for your response.
Regards,
Julien

Ah,

sometime ago, we tried to implement a XADES class with some special behaviour (mainly to manage big files, you know: the c14n issues with
big files),...

In our first design, the "elegant one" we decided to extend
org.apache.xml.security.signature.XMLSignature with our methods for big
files. But we could not because of the "final" keyword

So I was in the same point about the "final" keyword and I am interested
in solutions or designs for this kind of requirements.....

Thanks

Hi Sean,

Thank you for your response.

I would like implement a XAdESSignature class which extends the org.apache.xml.security.signature.XMLSignature class.

Hi all,

I would like to create a class which extends the XMLSignature class but it is not possible because XMLSignature class is declared as "final".

Is it possible te remove the "final" declaration from the XMLSecurity

class in the next release of XMLSecurity (v1.4.3) ?
The XMLSignature classes (org.apache.xml.security.signature.XMLSignature and javax.xml.crypto.dsig.XMLSignature) are not designed to be subclassed.

Instead, I would ask what you are trying to do and have you considered

other solutions?
