XmlDsigXsltTransform Class

Represents the XSLT transform for a digital signature as defined by the W3C.

Namespace: System.Security.Cryptography.Xml
Assembly: System.Security (in system.security.dll)

'Declaration
Public Class XmlDsigXsltTransform
	Inherits Transform
'Usage
Dim instance As XmlDsigXsltTransform

public class XmlDsigXsltTransform extends Transform
public class XmlDsigXsltTransform extends Transform

The XmlDsigXPathTransform class allows you to address an XML document using an XSLT transformation. This class uses XSLT to transform XML nodes into other XML nodes that you want to sign or encrypt.

Use the XmlDsigXsltTransform class to sign or encrypt specific parts of an XML document using an XSLT transformation.

The Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that describes the XmlDsigXsltTransform class is defined by the XmlDsigXsltTransformUrl field.

For more information about the XSLT transform, see Section 6.6.5 of the XMLDSIG specification, which is available from the W3C at www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/.

This section contains two code examples. The first code example shows how to sign and verify an XML document using the XmlDsigXsltTransform class with an envelope signature. The second code example demonstrates how to use members of the XmlDsigXsltTransform class.

Example #1

'
' This example signs an XML file using an
' envelope signature. It then verifies the 
' signed XML.
