JSR 105, v0.13 (Proposed Final Draft)

javax.xml.crypto.dsig
Interface DigestMethod

All Superinterfaces:
AlgorithmMethod, XMLStructure

public interface DigestMethod
extends XMLStructure, AlgorithmMethod

A representation of the XML DigestMethod element as defined in the W3C Recommendation for XML-Signature Syntax and Processing. The XML Schema Definition is defined as:

   <element name="DigestMethod" type="ds:DigestMethodType"/>
     <complexType name="DigestMethodType" mixed="true">
       <sequence>
         <any namespace="##any" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
           <!-- (0,unbounded) elements from (1,1) namespace -->
       </sequence>
       <attribute name="Algorithm" type="anyURI" use="required"/>
     </complexType>
 
A DigestMethod instance may be created by invoking the newDigestMethod method of the XMLSignatureFactory class.

XMLSignatureFactory.newDigestMethod(String, DigestMethodParameterSpec)

Field Summary
static String SHA1
          The SHA1 digest method algorithm URI.
 
Method Summary

getParameterSpec

public AlgorithmParameterSpec getParameterSpec()
Returns the algorithm-specific input parameters associated with this DigestMethod.

The returned parameters can be typecast to a DigestMethodParameterSpec object.

Specified by:
getParameterSpec in interface AlgorithmMethod
Returns:
the algorithm-specific parameters (may be null if not specified)
