CanonicalizationMethod Property

The canonicalization method applied to the signature.

Syntax

 xmlsig.getCanonicalizationMethod([callback])
 xmlsig.setCanonicalizationMethod( canonicalizationMethod, [callback])

Possible Values

  0 (cmC14N), 
  1 (cmC14NComments), 
  2 (cmC14N11), 
  3 (cmC14N11Comments), 
  4 (cmExcC14N), 
  5 (cmExcC14NComments)

Default Value

0

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getCanonicalizationMethod([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setCanonicalizationMethod([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This property specifies the canonicalization method that is applied to the signature. This may be set before calling Sign. This will be set automatically after calling VerifySignature. Possible values are:

This property is not available at design time.
