Author canonicalization

2005-02-17, 6:44 pm

Hi, I'm newbie in XML.

I'm trying to write procedure of signing xml, according to rules
described in http://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/

Generally I know what to do, but... I haven't got any idea how to
automatically generate canonical XML using msxml 4 (not 5!). I read
Canonical XML W3C Recommendation http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-c14n and task
looks terrible.
I'm using c++, I'm not allowed to use .net, only pure c++. Have anybody
any knowlegde how to obtain proper canonical xml? Maybe some examples?


Thanx in advance
Piotr

Yeah, superb, but $ 3,646.91 per license is too much.
They even don't give source code!

For that money you get royality free licence (unlimited clients).
As it says on their web site: source code is available for banks, goverment
organizations and similar.
The price is not small, but you will spent at least 6 months to make
something like this and that time spent might be more expensive then out of
the box solution.

Just download demo and try it. :>

We aren't neither bank, goverment nor similar organizations - it results
no source code.

We are from Poland - such price is unaccepted for us.

Six months? - maybe. But till today I managed canonicalization
(supporting myself free xmllib) and I'm going ahead :-)
