[xmlsec] .NET Integration

Yeah, there were loads of canonicalization errors in .NET 1.1.  We went
through that last fall, but when we switched to 2.0 we were able to
interop with our Java partners.  

 

However, I am completely unable to get it to work with an XmlSec signed
document.  I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but amazingly I can't
find anything on this on the web and the .NET API just says "False" so
there's no good way to debug.

 

Anyway, thanks!

I'll be trying .Net Framework-based inter-op in the coming months, I'll
let you know. I remember reporting problems with Beta Releases of
InfoPath 2003 back in 2002 that had to do with faulty canonicalization
in MSXML. This was fixed by the time InfoPath 2003 shipped. They are
pretty conscious of inter-op and do extensive testing with IBM and
others. I know for a fact that they are aware of, and "probably" have
conducted inter-op with XMLSec. Additionally Open Office uses XMLSec and
that is definitely on their radar.

Interesting.  So MS to XmlSec works.  

 

Has anyone done the reverse (signing with XmlSec and verifying with
.NET?)

Hi All,

 

   I have verified signed documents from MS Office Word 2007 Beta 2,
Office InfoPath 2003, and Office InfoPath 2007 Beta 2. However I am not
sure what crypto lib they use under the covers. I had heard that they
were based on MSXML5 which was not released to the public and used only
internally. I would suspect however that MSXML5 and the
System.Cryptography.Xml .Net packages are compatible, and therefore by
extension so is XMLSec.

 

Cheers,

Ed

 

P.S. Office 2007 Beta 2 is publicly available for download are all
versions of the .Net packages

Howdy.  I am wondering if anyone has successfully used XmlSec to sign a
document and then verified it in Microsoft .NET 2.0?  I have Googled
this and can't find any accounts of someone doing this.

 

Thanks!
