Hi Sean and all others, 

JDK6u16 is out now since a while, but I still get

java.lang.RuntimeException: javax.xml.crypto.MarshalException: unsupported 
signature algorithm: http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha256

=> Are the stronger algorithms SHA256-RSA re-targeted to another Update of 
JDK6 ?

Please let me know, if there is any solution in sight, or any other 
workaround, 
since I can´t use the endorsed mechanism due to a lot of side-effects for 
others.....

thanx, Torsten

We don't have plans to integrate the entire xmlsec-1.4.2 in Sun's JDK 6. 
XMLSec 1.4.2 is already in JDK 7 (via OpenJDK: 
https://jdk7.dev.java.net/). However, I have just opened an RFE to add 
support for the stronger SHA256-RSA and SHA512-RSA algorithms and 
targeted it to JDK 6u16. In the meantime the only workaround I know is 
to use the endorsed libraries mechanism.
