XML Encryption Home

Get the high-up, low-down, inside-out, upside-down and then some on XML Encryption. Sort of...

XML Encryption wont just just run out of the box. Or it will, but you'll feel short-changed. To make it work properly, look here...

How to use XML Encryption...

Get the stuff that will turn someting like this...

<path id="compile.classpath">
    <pathelement location="${build.home}/classes"/>
    <!--
    <pathelement location="${jaxp-api.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${dom.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${sax.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${commons-logging.jar}"/>
    -->
    <pathelement location="${xmlsec.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${log4j.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${bouncycastle.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${junit.jar}"/>
</path>

into something that resembles this...

<EncryptedData

and hopefully turn it back into something that looks like this...

<path id="compile.classpath">
    <pathelement location="${build.home}/classes"/>
    <!--
    <pathelement location="${jaxp-api.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${dom.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${sax.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${commons-logging.jar}"/>
    -->
    <pathelement location="${xmlsec.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${log4j.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${bouncycastle.jar}"/>
    <pathelement location="${junit.jar}"/>
</path>
