SignatureProperty (Java Platform SE 8 ) (original) (raw)

• All Superinterfaces:
  XMLStructure

public interface SignatureProperty
extends XMLStructure
A representation of the XML SignatureProperty element as defined in the W3C Recommendation for XML-Signature Syntax and Processing. The XML Schema Definition is defined as:

<element name="SignatureProperty" type="ds:SignaturePropertyType"/>  
   <complexType name="SignaturePropertyType" mixed="true">  
     <choice maxOccurs="unbounded">  
       <any namespace="##other" processContents="lax"/>  
       <!-- (1,1) elements from (1, unbounded) namespaces -->  
     </choice>  
     <attribute name="Target" type="anyURI" use="required"/>  
     <attribute name="Id" type="ID" use="optional"/>  
   </complexType>  
   

A SignatureProperty instance may be created by invoking thenewSignatureProperty method of the XMLSignatureFactory class; for example:
XMLSignatureFactory factory = XMLSignatureFactory.getInstance("DOM");
SignatureProperty property = factory.newSignatureProperty
(Collections.singletonList(content), "#Signature-1", "TimeStamp");

Since:
1.6

XMLSignatureFactory.newSignatureProperty(List, String, String), SignatureProperties

     * #### getTarget  
     [String](../../../../java/lang/String.html "class in java.lang") getTarget()  
     Returns the target URI of this `SignatureProperty`.  
     Returns:  
     the target URI of this `SignatureProperty` (never`null`)  
     * #### getId  
     [String](../../../../java/lang/String.html "class in java.lang") getId()  
     Returns the Id of this `SignatureProperty`.  
     Returns:  
     the Id of this `SignatureProperty` (or`null` if not specified)  
     * #### getContent  
     [List](../../../../java/util/List.html "interface in java.util") getContent()  
     Returns an [unmodifiable list](../../../../java/util/Collections.html#unmodifiableList-java.util.List-) of one or more [XMLStructure](../../../../javax/xml/crypto/XMLStructure.html "interface in javax.xml.crypto")s that are contained in this `SignatureProperty`. These represent additional information items concerning the generation of the [XMLSignature](../../../../javax/xml/crypto/dsig/XMLSignature.html "interface in javax.xml.crypto.dsig") (i.e. date/time stamp or serial numbers of cryptographic hardware used in signature generation).  
     Returns:  
     an unmodifiable list of one or more `XMLStructure`s
