DSSX-26: Manifest creation

[Andreas Kuehne <kuehne@trustable.de>]

Hi again,

surprisingly another flaw is hidden in our stack of open issues:

There is a single mentioning that InputDocuments may contain elements that may be referenced by a XMLDSig manifest. But I cannot find an way to supply the references to be used for the creation of the manifest. A layman's approach would be to include an element into SignedReference to hint that this reference should be located within the manifest. Using the SignedReference to create an element that is NOT a SignedReference sounds wierd but even a manifest item is a reference and it is signed ...

<xs:complexType name="SignedReferenceType">

 <xs:sequence>

ÂÂÂ <xs:element name="Transforms" type="ds-rw:TransformsType" minOccurs="0"/>

 </xs:sequence>

 <xs:attribute name="WhichDocument" type="xs:IDREF" use="required"/>

 <xs:attribute name="RefURI" type="xs:anyURI" use="optional"/>

 <xs:attribute name="RefId" type="xs:string" use="optional"/>

 <xs:attribute name="InManifest" type="xs:boolean" use="optional" default="false"/>

</xs:complexType>

Any opinions?

Greetings,

Andreas
