I've been asked: >Is there a publicly accessible equivalent to the >http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlenc-decrypt#Tobin reference? There isn't that I'm aware of, and that is a problem since you must understand this process in order to implement the decryption transform [1]. Unless someone planned on presenting it in another specification, I expect we should include it within the decryption transform specification itself. Richard/XML-Core, any objections? [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlenc-decrypt#func-decrypt Wrap the resulting octet stream with the octets representation of dummy tags (i.e., <dummy> and </dummy>) as proposed by Richard Tobin in [Tobin], and if needed, prepend the octets representing an XML declaration and a document type declaration. In order to parse the octet stream in the context of C, all the namespace declarations in C MUST be added to the dummy element. Also all the entity declarations in C MUST be added to the document type declaration. -- Joseph Reagle Jr. http://www.w3.org/People/Reagle/ W3C Policy Analyst mailto:reagle@w3.org IETF/W3C XML-Signature Co-Chair http://www.w3.org/Signature/ W3C XML Encryption Chair http://www.w3.org/Encryption/2001/
