Reset Method (XMLEncryptor Class)
Resets the class settings.
Syntax
public void reset();
Remarks
Reset is a generic method available in every class.
Error Event (XMLEncryptor Class)
Information about errors during signing.
Syntax
public class DefaultXMLEncryptorEventListener implements XMLEncryptorEventListener { ... public void error(XMLEncryptorErrorEvent e) {} ... } public class XMLEncryptorErrorEvent { public int errorCode; public String description; }
Remarks
The event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during signing.
ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error.
FormatElement Event (XMLEncryptor Class)
Reports the XML element that is currently being processed.
Syntax
public class DefaultXMLEncryptorEventListener implements XMLEncryptorEventListener { ... public void formatElement(XMLEncryptorFormatElementEvent e) {} ... } public class XMLEncryptorFormatElementEvent { public String startTagWhitespace; //read-write public String endTagWhitespace; //read-write public int level; public String path; public boolean hasChildElements; }
Remarks
Path and Level specify the path to the XML element being processed and its nesting level, respectively.
HasChildElements specify if processed XML element has child elements.
Among other purposes, this event may be used to add whitespace formatting before or after a particular element in the signature.
FormatText Event (XMLEncryptor Class)
Reports XML text that is currently being processed.
Syntax
public class DefaultXMLEncryptorEventListener implements XMLEncryptorEventListener { ... public void formatText(XMLEncryptorFormatTextEvent e) {} ... } public class XMLEncryptorFormatTextEvent { public String text; //read-write public int textType; public int level; public String path; }
Remarks
TextType parameter specifies the type of the XML text (normal or Base64-encoded) that is stored in the element; Path and Level specify the path to the XML element and its nesting level.
Among other purposes, this event may be used to add whitespace formatting before or after a particular element in the signature.
Notification Event (XMLEncryptor Class)
This event notifies the application about an underlying control flow event.
Syntax
public class DefaultXMLEncryptorEventListener implements XMLEncryptorEventListener { ... public void notification(XMLEncryptorNotificationEvent e) {} ... } public class XMLEncryptorNotificationEvent { public String eventID; public String eventParam; }
Remarks
The class fires this event to let the application know about some event, occurrence, or milestone in the class. For example, it may fire to report completion of the document processing. The list of events being reported is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.
The unique identifier of the event is provided in the EventID parameter. EventParam contains any parameters accompanying the occurrence. Depending on the type of the class, the exact action it is performing, or the document being processed, one or both may be omitted.
Certificate Type
Encapsulates an individual X.509 certificate.
Remarks
This type keeps and provides access to X.509 certificate details.

Fields
Bytes
byte[] (read-only)
Default Value: ""
Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.
CA
boolean
Default Value: False
Indicates whether the certificate has a CA capability. For the certificate to be considered a CA, it must have its Basic Constraints extension set with the CA indicator enabled.
Set this field when generating a new certificate to have its Basic Constraints extension generated automatically.
CAKeyID
byte[] (read-only)
Default Value: ""
A unique identifier (fingerprint) of the CA certificate's cryptographic key.
Authority Key Identifier is a certificate extension which allows identification of certificates belonging to the same issuer, but with different public keys. It is a de-facto standard to include this extension in all certificates to facilitate chain building.
This setting cannot be set when generating a certificate as it always derives from another certificate property. CertificateManager generates this setting automatically if enough information is available to it: for self-signed certificates, this value is copied from the SubjectKeyID setting, and for lower-level certificates, from the parent certificate's subject key ID extension.
CertType
int (read-only)
Default Value: 0
Returns the type of the entity contained in the Certificate object.
A Certificate object can contain two types of cryptographic objects: a ready-to-use X.509 certificate, or a certificate request ("an unsigned certificate"). Certificate requests can be upgraded to full certificates by signing them with a CA certificate.
Use the CertificateManager class to load or create new certificate and certificate requests objects.
CRLDistributionPoints
String
Default Value: ""
Contains a list of locations of CRL distribution points used to check this certificate's validity. The list is taken from the respective certificate extension.
Use this field when generating a certificate to provide a list of CRL endpoints that should be made part of the new certificate.
The endpoints are provided as a list of CRLF-separated URLs. Note that this differs from the behaviour used in earlier product versions, where the "|" character was used as the location separator.
Curve
String
Default Value: ""
Specifies the elliptic curve associated with the certificate's public key. This setting only applies to certificates containing EC keys.

Fingerprint
String (read-only)
Default Value: ""
Contains the fingerprint (a hash imprint) of this certificate.
While there is no formal standard defining what a fingerprint is, a SHA1 hash of the certificate's DER-encoded body is typically used.
FriendlyName
String (read-only)
Default Value: ""
Contains an associated alias (friendly name) of the certificate. The friendly name is not a property of a certificate: it is maintained by the certificate media rather than being included in its DER representation. Windows certificate stores are one example of media that does support friendly names.
HashAlgorithm
String
Default Value: ""
Provides means to set the hash algorithm to be used in the subsequent operation on the certificate (such as generation or key signing). It is not a property of a certificate; use SigAlgorithm to find out the hash algorithm that is part of the certificate signature.

Use the KeyBits, Curve, and PublicKeyBytes fields to get more details about the key the certificate contains.
KeyBits
int (read-only)
Default Value: 0
Returns the length of the public key in bits.
This value indicates the length of the principal cryptographic parameter of the key, such as the length of the RSA modulus or ECDSA field. The key data returned by the PublicKeyBytes or PrivateKeyBytes field would typically contain auxiliary values, and therefore be longer.
KeyFingerprint
String (read-only)
Default Value: ""
Returns a SHA1 fingerprint of the public key contained in the certificate.
Note that the key fingerprint is different from the certificate fingerprint accessible via the Fingerprint field. The key fingeprint uniquely identifies the public key, and so can be the same for multiple certificates containing the same key.
KeyUsage
int
Default Value: 0
Indicates the purposes of the key contained in the certificate, in the form of an OR'ed flag set.
This value is a bit mask of the following values:
ckuUnknown | 0x00000 | Unknown key usage |
ckuDigitalSignature | 0x00001 | Digital signature |
ckuNonRepudiation | 0x00002 | Non-repudiation |
ckuKeyEncipherment | 0x00004 | Key encipherment |
ckuDataEncipherment | 0x00008 | Data encipherment |
ckuKeyAgreement | 0x00010 | Key agreement |
ckuKeyCertSign | 0x00020 | Certificate signing |
ckuCRLSign | 0x00040 | Revocation signing |
ckuEncipherOnly | 0x00080 | Encipher only |
ckuDecipherOnly | 0x00100 | Decipher only |
ckuServerAuthentication | 0x00200 | Server authentication |
ckuClientAuthentication | 0x00400 | Client authentication |
ckuCodeSigning | 0x00800 | Code signing |
ckuEmailProtection | 0x01000 | Email protection |
ckuTimeStamping | 0x02000 | Timestamping |
ckuOCSPSigning | 0x04000 | OCSP signing |
ckuSmartCardLogon | 0x08000 | Smartcard logon |
ckuKeyPurposeClientAuth | 0x10000 | Kerberos - client authentication |
ckuKeyPurposeKDC | 0x20000 | Kerberos - KDC |
Set this field before generating the certificate to propagate the key usage flags to the new certificate.
KeyValid
boolean (read-only)
Default Value: False
Returns True if the certificate's key is cryptographically valid, and False otherwise.
OCSPLocations
String
Default Value: ""
Locations of OCSP services that can be used to check this certificate's validity in real time, as recorded by the CA.
Set this field before calling the certificate manager's Generate method to propagate it to the new certificate.
The OCSP locations are provided as a list of CRLF-separated URLs. Note that this differs from the behaviour used in earlier product versions, where the "|" character was used as the location separator.
OCSPNoCheck
boolean
Default Value: False
Accessor to the value of the certificate's ocsp-no-check extension.
Origin
int (read-only)
Default Value: 0
Returns the location that the certificate was taken or loaded from.
PolicyIDs
String
Default Value: ""
Contains identifiers (OIDs) of the applicable certificate policies.
The Certificate Policies extension identifies a sequence of policies under which the certificate has been issued, and which regulate its usage.
Set this field when generating a certificate to propagate the policies information to the new certificate.
The policies are provided as a list of CRLF-separated entries. Note that this differs from the behaviour used in earlier product versions, where the "|" character was used as the policy element separator.
PrivateKeyBytes
byte[] (read-only)
Default Value: ""
Returns the certificate's private key in DER-encoded format. It is normal for this field to be empty if the private key is non-exportable, which, for example, is typical for certificates originating from hardware security devices.
PrivateKeyExists
boolean (read-only)
Default Value: False
Indicates whether the certificate has a usable private key associated with it. If it is set to True, the certificate can be used for private key operations, such as signing or decryption.
This field is independent from PrivateKeyBytes, and can be set to True even if the former is empty. This would imply that the private key is non-exportable, but still can be used for cryptographic operations.
PrivateKeyExtractable
boolean (read-only)
Default Value: False
Indicates whether the private key is extractable (exportable).
PublicKeyBytes
byte[] (read-only)
Default Value: ""
Contains the certificate's public key in DER format.
This typically would contain an ASN.1-encoded public key value. The exact format depends on the type of the public key contained in the certificate.
Qualified
boolean (read-only)
Default Value: False
Indicates whether the certificate is qualified.
This property is set to True if the certificate is confirmed by a Trusted List to be qualified.
QualifiedStatements
int
Default Value: 0
Returns a simplified qualified status of the certificate.
Qualifiers
String (read-only)
Default Value: ""
A list of qualifiers.
Contains a comma-separated list of qualifier aliases for the certificate, for example QCP-n-qscd,QCWithSSCD.
SelfSigned
boolean (read-only)
Default Value: False
Indicates whether the certificate is self-signed (root) or signed by an external CA.
SerialNumber
byte[]
Default Value: ""
Returns the certificate's serial number.
The serial number is a binary string that uniquely identifies a certificate among others issued by the same CA. According to the X.509 standard, the (issuer, serial number) pair should be globally unique to facilitate chain building.
SigAlgorithm
String (read-only)
Default Value: ""
Indicates the algorithm that was used by the CA to sign this certificate.
A signature algorithm typically combines hash and public key algorithms together, such as sha256WithRSAEncryption or ecdsa-with-SHA256.
Source
int (read-only)
Default Value: 0
Returns the source (location or disposition) of a cryptographic primitive entity, such as a certificate, CRL, or OCSP response.
Subject
String (read-only)
Default Value: ""
The common name of the certificate holder, typically an individual's name, a URL, an e-mail address, or a company name. This is part of a larger set of credentials available via SubjectRDN.
SubjectAlternativeName
String
Default Value: ""
Returns or sets the value of the Subject Alternative Name extension of the certificate.
Subject alternative names are used to provide additional names that are impractical to store in the main SubjectRDN field. For example, it is often used to store all the domain names that a TLS certificate is authorized to protect.
The alternative names are provided as a list of CRLF-separated entries. Note that this differs from the behaviour used in earlier product versions, where the "|" character was used as the element separator.
SubjectKeyID
byte[]
Default Value: ""
Contains a unique identifier of the certificate's cryptographic key.
Subject Key Identifier is a certificate extension which allows a specific public key to be associated with a certificate holder. Typically, subject key identifiers of CA certificates are recorded as respective CA key identifiers in the subordinate certificates that they issue, which facilitates chain building.
The SubjectKeyID and CAKeyID fields of self-signed certificates typically contain identical values, as in that specific case, the issuer and the subject are the same entity.
SubjectRDN
String
Default Value: ""
A list of Property=Value pairs that uniquely identify the certificate holder (subject).
Depending on the purpose of the certificate and the policies of the CA that issued it, the values included in the subject record may differ drastically and contain business or personal names, web URLs, email addresses, and other data.
Example: /C=US/O=Oranges and Apples, Inc./OU=Accounts Receivable/1.2.3.4.5=Value with unknown OID/CN=Margaret Watkins.
Valid
boolean (read-only)
Default Value: False
Indicates whether or not the signature over the certificate or the request is valid and matches the public key contained in the CA certificate/request.
ValidFrom
String
Default Value: ""
The time point at which the certificate becomes valid, in UTC.
ValidTo
String
Default Value: ""
The time point at which the certificate expires, in UTC.

Config Settings (XMLEncryptor Class)
The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.XMLEncryptor Config Settings
This property contains the identifier (ID) attribute of the xenc:EncryptedData element.
This property contains the identifier (ID) attribute of the xenc:EncryptedKey element.
Use this property to specify the custom XML content of the xenc:EncryptedKey\ds:KeyInfo element.
The empty elements in the custom XML content act as a placeholder for auto-generated elements.
For example to change the order of ds:KeyValue and ds:X509Data auto-generated elements use the value: "<X509Data/><KeyValue/>"
This property contains the identifier (ID) attribute of the xenc:EncryptedKey\ds:KeyInfo element.
Set this property to True to create only xenc:EncryptedKey element.
This property specifies the XML element where to save the xenc:EncryptedKey element.
Supported values are:
"" | an empty string indicates the Document element |
"#id" | indicates an XML element with specified Id |
XPath expression | indicates an XML element selected using XPath expression. Use AddKnownNamespace method to specify Prefixes and NamespaceURIs
For example: "/root/data[1]" - indicates the second "data" element under the document element with a name "root" "//ns1:data" - indicates a data element. "ns1" prefix should be defined via AddKnownNamespace method. |
Node name | indicates an XML element selected using its NodeName.
For example: "data" - indicates an XML element with node name "data". |
Specifies the prefix for the EncryptedData elements.
Default value is "xenc". In this case "xenc:" prefix will be used.
Special values:
"#default" or "" | indicates that the prefix will be omitted. |
"#auto" | indicates that the prefix will be auto-detected based on the parent nodes. |
Use this property to specify the custom XML content of the ds:KeyInfo element.
The empty elements in the custom XML content act as a placeholder for auto-generated elements.
For example to change the order of ds:KeyValue and ds:X509Data auto-generated elements use the value: "<X509Data/><KeyValue/>"
This property contains the identifier (ID) attribute of the ds:KeyInfo element.
The KeyName element contains a string value (with significant whitespaces) which may be used by the encryptor to communicate a key identifier to the recipient. Typically, the KeyName element contains an identifier related to the key pair used to sign the message, but it may contain other protocol-related information that indirectly identifies a key pair. Common uses of the KeyName include simple string names for keys, a key index, a distinguished name (DN), an email address, etc.
MimeType is an optional (advisory) attribute which describes the media type of the data which is encrypted. The value of this attribute is a string with values defined by MIME specification (RFC 2045). For example, if the data that is encrypted is a base64 encoded PNG, the transfer Encoding may be specified as 'http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#base64' and the MimeType as 'image/png'. This attribute is purely advisory; no validation of the MimeType information is required and it does not indicate the encryption application must do any additional processing.
Specifies the prefix for the Signature elements.
Default value is "ds". In this case "ds:" prefix will be used.
Special values:
"#default" or "" | indicates that the prefix will be omitted. |
"#auto" | indicates that the prefix will be auto-detected based on the parent nodes. |
This setting specifies an absolute path to the location on disk where temporary files are stored. This setting is supported only in the Java edition for all applicable signing components except PDFSigner, where this limitation does not apply.
Set this property to False to disable writing byte-order mark (BOM) when saving the XML document in Unicode encoding.
Use this property to specify how the signature should be formatted.
Supported values:
"" or "none" | no formatting (by default). | |
"auto" | enables auto-formatting, equivalent to: "indent: 1; indent-char: tab; base64-max-length: 64; starting-level: node" |
indent | specifies indentation level (default is 1) | |
indent-char | specifies indentation character: "space" or "tab" (default) | |
base64-max-length | specifies max length of base64 encoded data, such as signature value, certificate data and etc. (default is 64) | |
starting-level | specifies starting indentation level: non-negative integer or "node" - detected based on parent node, or "root" - detected based on number of parent nodes to a document element (default is "node"). | |
indent-before-main | specifies if whitespace characters should be inserted before a main (ds:Signature) element: "auto" (default), "yes" or "no" |
Base Config Settings
This is a performance setting. It is unlikely that you will ever need to adjust it.
This is a low-level tweak for certain cryptographic providers. It is unlikely that you will ever need to adjust it.
This global property enables or disables private key material check before each signing operation. This slows down performance a bit, but prevents a selection of attacks on RSA keys where keys with unknown origins are used.
You can switch this property off to improve performance if your project only uses known, good private keys.
Set this property to enable or disable cookies caching for the class.
Supported values are:
off | No caching (default) | |
local | Local caching | |
global | Global caching |
Use this property to get cookies from the internal cookie storage of the class and/or restore them back between application sessions.
This global property sets the default number of iterations for all supported key derivation algorithms. Note that you can provide the required number of iterations by using properties of the relevant key generation component; this global setting is used in scenarios where specific iteration count is not or cannot be provided.
Use this global setting to adjust the default suffix to assign to top-level domain names. The default is .local.
This global property enables or disables support for finite field DHE key exchange methods in TLS clients. FF DHE is a slower algorithm if compared to EC DHE; enabling it may result in slower connections.
This setting only applies to sessions negotiated with TLS version 1.3.
Use this property to get cookies from the GLOBAL cookie storage or restore them back between application sessions. These cookies will be used by all the classes that have its CookieCaching property set to "global".
This global setting controls the hardware cryptography usage policy: auto, enable, or disable.
This global setting defines the User-Agent field of the HTTP request provides information about the software that initiates the request. This value will be used by all the HTTP clients including the ones used internally in other classes.
Set this property to 1.0 or 1.1 to indicate the HTTP version that any internal HTTP clients should use.
It is not uncommon for Microsoft Windows Update Certificate Trust List to be signed with an expired Microsoft certificate. Setting this global property to true makes SBB ignore the expired factor and take the Trust List into account.
Allows to set the delimiter for any multi-entry values returned by the component as a string object, such as file lists. For most of the components, this property is set to a newline sequence.
Contains a comma-separated list of values that specifies where debug log should be dumped.
Supported values are:
file | File | |
console | Console | |
systemlog | System Log (supported for Android only) | |
debugger | Debugger (supported for VCL for Windows and .Net) |
Contains a comma-separated list of values that specifies which debug log details to dump.
Supported values are:
time | Current time | |
level | Level | |
package | Package name | |
module | Module name | |
class | Class name | |

exclude-class | Exclude a class specified in the value | |
exclude-method | Exclude a method specified in the value | |
include-package | Include a package specified in the value | |
include-module | Include a module specified in the value | |
include-class | Include a class specified in the value | |
include-method | Include a method specified in the value |
Use this property to set the log flush mode. The following values are defined:
none | No flush (caching only) | |
immediate | Immediate flush (real-time logging) | |
maxcount | Flush cached entries upon reaching LogMaxEventCount entries in the cache. |
Use this property to provide the desired debug log level.
Supported values are:
none | None (by default) | |
fatal | Severe errors that cause premature termination. | |
error | Other runtime errors or unexpected conditions. | |
warning | Use of deprecated APIs, poor use of API, 'almost' errors, other runtime situations that are undesirable or unexpected, but not necessarily "wrong". | |
info | Interesting runtime events (startup/shutdown). | |
debug | Detailed information on flow of through the system. | |
trace | More detailed information. |
Use this property to specify the log event number threshold. This threshold may have different effects, depending on the rotation setting and/or the flush mode.
The default value of this setting is 100.
Use this property to set the log rotation mode. The following values are defined:
none | No rotation | |
deleteolder | Delete older entries from the cache upon reaching LogMaxEventCount | |
keepolder | Keep older entries in the cache upon reaching LogMaxEventCount (newer entries are discarded) |
This global property limits the maximal allowed length for ASN.1 tag data for non-content-carrying structures, such as certificates, CRLs, or timestamps. It does not affect structures that can carry content, such as CMS/CAdES messages. This is a security property aiming at preventing DoS attacks.
This global property limits the maximal depth of ASN.1 trees that the component can handle without throwing an error. This is a security property aiming at preventing DoS attacks.
This global setting defines the hash algorithm to use in OCSP requests during chain validation. Some OCSP responders can only use older algorithms, in which case setting this property to SHA1 may be helpful.
Tells the SSH client to use a legacy ssh-rsa authentication even if the server indicates support for newer algorithms, such as rsa-sha-256. This is a backward-compatibility tweak.
The PKICache setting specifies which Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) elements should be cached to optimize performance and reduce retrieval times. It supports comma-separated values to indicate the specific types of PKI data that should be cached.
Supported Values:
certificate | Enables caching of certificates. |
crl | Enables caching of Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs). |
ocsp | Enables caching of OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) responses. |
Example (default value):
PKICache=certificate,crl,ocsp
In this example, the component caches certificates, CRLs, and OCSP responses.
The PKICachePath setting defines the file system path where cached PKI data (e.g., certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses and Trusted Lists) will be stored. This allows the system to persistently save and retrieve PKI cache data, even across application restarts.
The default value is an empty string - no cached PKI data is stored on disk.
Example:
PKICachePath=C:\Temp\cache
In this example, the cached PKI data is stored in the C:\Temp\cache directory.
This property returns the long version string of the SecureBlackbox library being used (major.minor.build.revision).
Use this property to adjust the length, in bits, of the DHE prime to be used by the TLS server.
Set this property to enable or disable static DNS rules for the class. Works only if UseOwnDNSResolver is set to true.
Supported values are:
none | No static DNS rules (default) | |
local | Local static DNS rules | |
global | Global static DNS rules |
Use this property to get or set an IP address for the specified domain name in the internal (of the class) or global DNS rules storage depending on the StaticDNS value. The type of the IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) is determined automatically. If both addresses are available, they are devided by the | (pipe) character.
Use this property to get static DNS rules from the current rules storage or restore them back between application sessions. If StaticDNS of the class is set to "local", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the internal storage of the class. If StaticDNS of the class is set to "global", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the GLOBAL storage. The rules list is returned and accepted in JSON format.
Use this config property to store any custom data.
Use this property to limit the search of chached TLS sessions to the specified group. Sessions from other groups will be ignored. By default, all sessions are cached with an empty group name and available to all the classes.
Use this property to specify how much time the TLS session should be kept in the session cache. After this time, the session expires and will be automatically removed from the cache. Default value is 300 seconds (5 minutes).
Use this property to specify the time interval of purging the expired TLS sessions from the session cache. Default value is 60 seconds (1 minute).
This setting enables or disables the caching of CRL objects. When set to true (the default value), the system checks if a CRL object is already loaded in memory before attempting to load a new instance. If the object is found, the existing instance is reused, and its reference count is incremented to track its usage. When the reference count reaches zero, indicating that no references to the object remain, the system will free the object from memory. This setting enhances performance by minimizing unnecessary object instantiation and promotes efficient memory management, particularly in scenarios where CRL objects are frequently used.
Allows to switch between internal/native PRNG implementation and the one provided by the platform.
Use this setting to switch the AdES component to the validation approach that was used in SBB 2020/SBB 2022 (less attention to temporal details).
This setting enables or disables the caching of OCSP response objects. When set to true (the default value), the system checks if a OCSP response object is already loaded in memory before attempting to load a new instance. If the object is found, the existing instance is reused, and its reference count is incremented to track its usage. When the reference count reaches zero, indicating that no references to the object remain, the system will free the object from memory. This setting enhances performance by minimizing unnecessary object instantiation and promotes efficient memory management, particularly in scenarios where OCSP response objects are frequently used.
Set this global property to false to force all the client components to use the DNS resolver provided by the target OS instead of using own one.
Set this global property to false to make each validation run use its own copy of system certificate stores.
This is an internal setting. Please do not use it unless instructed by the support team.
This global setting defines who is responsible for performing RSA-OAEP and RSA-PSS computations where the private key is stored in a Windows system store and is exportable. If set to true, SBB will delegate the computations to Windows via a CryptoAPI call. Otherwise, it will export the key material and perform the computations using its own OAEP/PSS implementation.
This setting only applies to certificates originating from a Windows system store.
Use this global property to enable or disable the use of operating system-driven pseudorandom number generation.
This property defines custom mappings between Object Identifiers (OIDs) and descriptor names. This mapping specifies how the certificate's issuer and subject information (ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements respectively) are represented in XML signatures.
The property accepts comma-separated values where the first descriptor name is used when the OID is mapped, and subsequent values act as aliases for parsing.
Syntax:
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[OID]=PrimaryName,Alias1,Alias2");
Where:
OID: The Object Identifier from the certificate's IssuerRDN or SubjectRDN that you want to map.
PrimaryName: The main descriptor name used in the XML signature when the OID is encountered.
Alias1, Alias2, ...: Optional alternative names recognized during parsing.
Usage Examples:
Map OID 2.5.4.5 to SERIALNUMBER:
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[2.5.4.5]=SERIALNUMBER");
Map OID 1.2.840.113549.1.9.1 to E, with aliases EMAIL and EMAILADDRESS:
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[1.2.840.113549.1.9.1]=E,EMAIL,EMAILADDRESS");
This property specifies the priority of descriptor names associated with a specific OID that allows to reorder descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during signing.
Specifies whether to reverse the order of descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during XML signing. By default, this property is set to true (as specified in RFC 2253, 2.1).
Specifies the separator used between descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during XML signing. By default, this property is set to ", " value.
