Hi Aleksey...

I am sorry for the previous email... I wonder why i didnt think that the
digest value stored is base64 encoded and not Hex. Sorry about that.

But I have another question to you... I am currently enabling digital
signature on my product. I would be making a template document and then
sign it. I have come across few samples on internet where they keep 3
dots for eg. <DigestValue>...</DigestValue> and the sample document
provided with XMLSEC has these 3 dots missing. Though adding the 3 dots
throws an error to me. Is there any peculiar significance to add those 3
dots?

Thanks,
Naval.

    Hi Aleksey,

    First of all, thanks a ton for this library which is coming very
    helpful to me.

    I am using XMLSEC along with OpenSSL for digital signature document
    signing as well as verification. I have come across a point where I
    see the digest value for the same file as two separate values under
    two conditions mentioned below:

    Case 1: I am using the MD5 algorithm for digest value of the file
    that is pointed by URI of <Reference>. The generated digest value is
    lets say something. On verification this goes in very well, it does
    not bother me atall.
    Case 2: I use the openssl.exe on commandline and I fear that the MD5
    value for the same file differs from what I am getting in case 1. I
    also cross verified the results by entering the text on an online
    tool for generating MD5 value at
    http://www.adamek.biz/md5-generator.php

    Also I am observing that each of the digest or signature value ends
    with and equal to sign '='. Is this a normal behavior?

    Please do reply to me, else i would be stuck.

    Naval Patel
