javax.xml.crypto.dsig
Class XMLSignatureFactory

java.lang.Object
  extended by javax.xml.crypto.dsig.XMLSignatureFactory

public abstract class XMLSignatureFactory
extends Object

A factory for creating XMLSignature objects from scratch or for unmarshalling an XMLSignature object from a corresponding XML representation.

XMLSignatureFactory Type

Each instance of XMLSignatureFactory supports a specific XML mechanism type. To create an XMLSignatureFactory, call one of the static getInstance methods, passing in the XML mechanism type desired, for example:

XMLSignatureFactory factory = XMLSignatureFactory.getInstance("DOM");

The objects that this factory produces will be based on DOM and abide by the DOM interoperability requirements as defined in the DOM Mechanism Requirements section of the API overview. See the Service Providers section of the API overview for a list of standard mechanism types.

XMLSignatureFactory implementations are registered and loaded using the Provider mechanism. For example, a service provider that supports the DOM mechanism would be specified in the Provider subclass as:

     put("XMLSignatureFactory.DOM", "org.example.DOMXMLSignatureFactory");
 

An implementation MUST minimally support the default mechanism type: DOM.

Note that a caller must use the same XMLSignatureFactory instance to create the XMLStructures of a particular XMLSignature that is to be generated. The behavior is undefined if XMLStructures from different providers or different mechanism types are used together.

Also, the XMLStructures that are created by this factory may contain state specific to the XMLSignature and are not intended to be reusable.

Creating XMLSignatures from scratch

Once the XMLSignatureFactory has been created, objects can be instantiated by calling the appropriate method. For example, a Reference instance may be created by invoking one of the newReference methods.

Unmarshalling XMLSignatures from XML

Alternatively, an XMLSignature may be created from an existing XML representation by invoking the unmarshalXMLSignature method and passing it a mechanism-specific XMLValidateContext instance containing the XML content:

 DOMValidateContext context = new DOMValidateContext(key, signatureElement);
 XMLSignature signature = factory.unmarshalXMLSignature(context);
 
Each XMLSignatureFactory must support the required XMLValidateContext types for that factory type, but may support others. A DOM XMLSignatureFactory must support DOMValidateContext objects.

Signing and marshalling XMLSignatures to XML

Each XMLSignature created by the factory can also be marshalled to an XML representation and signed, by invoking the sign method of the XMLSignature object and passing it a mechanism-specific XMLSignContext object containing the signing key and marshalling parameters (see DOMSignContext). For example:
    DOMSignContext context = new DOMSignContext(privateKey, document);
    signature.sign(context);
 
Concurrent Access

The static methods of this class are guaranteed to be thread-safe. Multiple threads may concurrently invoke the static methods defined in this class with no ill effects.

However, this is not true for the non-static methods defined by this class. Unless otherwise documented by a specific provider, threads that need to access a single XMLSignatureFactory instance concurrently should synchronize amongst themselves and provide the necessary locking. Multiple threads each manipulating a different XMLSignatureFactory instance need not synchronize.

                                                          throws NoSuchAlgorithmException,
                                                                 InvalidAlgorithmParameterException
Creates a CanonicalizationMethod for the specified algorithm URI and parameters. The parameters are specified as a mechanism-specific XMLStructure (ex: DOMStructure). This method is useful when the parameters are in XML form or there is no standard class for specifying the parameters.

Parameters:
algorithm - the URI identifying the canonicalization algorithm
params - a mechanism-specific XML structure from which to unmarshal the parameters from (may be null if not required or optional)
Returns:
the CanonicalizationMethod
Throws:
ClassCastException - if the type of params is inappropriate for this XMLSignatureFactory
InvalidAlgorithmParameterException - if the specified parameters are inappropriate for the requested algorithm
NoSuchAlgorithmException - if an implementation of the specified algorithm cannot be found
NullPointerException - if algorithm is null

getKeyInfoFactory

public final KeyInfoFactory getKeyInfoFactory()
Returns a KeyInfoFactory that creates KeyInfo objects. The returned KeyInfoFactory has the same mechanism type and provider as this XMLSignatureFactory.

Returns:
a KeyInfoFactory
Throws:
NoSuchMechanismException - if a KeyFactory implementation with the same mechanism type and provider is not available

unmarshalXMLSignature

public abstract XMLSignature unmarshalXMLSignature(XMLValidateContext context)
                                            throws MarshalException
Unmarshals a new XMLSignature instance from a mechanism-specific XMLValidateContext instance.

Parameters:
context - a mechanism-specific context from which to unmarshal the signature from
Returns:
the XMLSignature
Throws:
NullPointerException - if context is null
ClassCastException - if the type of context is inappropriate for this factory
MarshalException - if an unrecoverable exception occurs during unmarshalling

unmarshalXMLSignature

public abstract XMLSignature unmarshalXMLSignature(XMLStructure xmlStructure)
                                            throws MarshalException
Unmarshals a new XMLSignature instance from a mechanism-specific XMLStructure instance. This method is useful if you only want to unmarshal (and not validate) an XMLSignature.

Parameters:
xmlStructure - a mechanism-specific XML structure from which to unmarshal the signature from
Returns:
the XMLSignature
Throws:
NullPointerException - if xmlStructure is null
ClassCastException - if the type of xmlStructure is inappropriate for this factory
MarshalException - if an unrecoverable exception occurs during unmarshalling

isFeatureSupported

public abstract boolean isFeatureSupported(String feature)
Indicates whether a specified feature is supported.

Parameters:
feature - the feature name (as an absolute URI)
Returns:
true if the specified feature is supported, false otherwise
Throws:
NullPointerException - if feature is null

getURIDereferencer

public abstract URIDereferencer getURIDereferencer()
Returns a reference to the URIDereferencer that is used by default to dereference URIs in Reference objects.

Returns:
a reference to the default URIDereferencer (never null)
