| <title>Provided Tools</title> |
| <p> |
| A number of very simple "tools" (really examples) are provided with |
| the XML Security library. These can be used either to provide examples |
| of how to use the library or as simple utilities in their own right for |
| performing canonicalisation and signature functions. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The tools are : |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li><em>c14n</em> - A tool to output a Canonicalised version of an |
| input document.</li> |
| <li><em>checksig</em> - A tool to validate a signature in an XML |
| input document</li> |
| <li><em>templatesign</em> - A tool to sign an XML document that already |
| has the <Signature> structure installed, but needs the references |
| hashed and the SignatureValue set.</li> |
| <li><em>txfmout</em> - A tool to take an XML Signature and output |
| the fully transformed references to stdout or a nominated file</li> |
| <li><em>threadTest</em> - A Windows only program that runs up a number |
| of threads which simultaneously sign and validate documents. A |
| number of documents are modified in between (to cause the signature |
| validation to fail).</li> |
| <li><em>siginf</em> - A tool to read in an XML Signature and dump |
| various details about the signature and references to the terminal |
| </li> |
| <li><em>cipher</em> - A tool to encrypt and decrypt XML documents. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| <p> |
| The tools can all be run with no command line arguments to see their |
| parameters. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| One extra "tool" is provided - <em>xtest</em>. This is really a testing |
| program that exercises various capabilities of the library and compares |
| the results with known good results. |
