Class CanonicalizationAlgorithm

java.lang.Object

iaik.ixsil.algorithms.Algorithm

iaik.ixsil.algorithms.CanonicalizationAlgorithm

Direct Known Subclasses:

CanonicalizationAlgorithmImplCanonicalXML, CanonicalizationAlgorithmImplExclusiveCanonicalXML

public abstract class CanonicalizationAlgorithm
extends Algorithm

Defines the behaviour of a canonicalization algorithm in addition to the standard algorithm's behaviour. A canonicalization algorithm takes XML input data in form of a XPath node set.

Method Detail

canonicalize

public abstract java.io.InputStream canonicalize()
                                          throws AlgorithmException

Produces the canonical physical representation of the XML input previously specified by the method setInput(org.w3c.dom.NodeList).

Returns:

a canonical physical representation for the specified input.

Throws:

AlgorithmException - if computing the canonical physical representation fails for any reason.

setInput

public void setInput(org.w3c.dom.NodeList input)

Sets the data to be processed by the canonicalization algorithm.

Parameters:

input - The XPath node set to be processed by the canonicalization algorithm. Must not be null.
