XMLValidateContext

public interface XMLValidateContext implements XMLCryptoContext
Contains context information for validating XML Signatures. This interface is primarily intended for type-safety.

Note that XMLValidateContext instances can contain information and state specific to the XML signature structure it is used with. The results are unpredictable if an XMLValidateContext is used with different signature structures (for example, you should not use the same XMLValidateContext instance to validate two different {@link XMLSignature} objects).

Supported Properties

The following properties can be set by an application using the {@link #setProperty setProperty} method.

  • javax.xml.crypto.dsig.cacheReference: value must be a {@link Boolean}. This property controls whether or not the {@link Reference#validate Reference.validate} method will cache the dereferenced content and pre-digested input for subsequent retrieval via the {@link Reference#getDereferencedData Reference.getDereferencedData} and {@link Reference#getDigestInputStream Reference.getDigestInputStream} methods. The default value if not specified is Boolean.FALSE.
