           Summary: Experimental single pass SAX xml signature verification
           Product: Security
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Signature
        AssignedTo: security-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: raul-info@r-bg.com


I attached a patch that includes an experimental (i.e. nearly working, and hard
to use) single pass SAX xml signature verification.
Right now it can only verify signatures that the name of the element signed, and
the way it is c14n are known before hand (no other transformations are
implemented, so no enveloped signatures right now). Some examples of use can be
found in the src_samples/prb/SaxPrb.java. I have documented my progress somehow
in my blog so please take a look to http://r-bg.com/apache for more info.
 
This feature has been tested by some other people finding very big improvements
both in memory consumption and in performance. But the API is really unstable
and it is going to change radically in next versions.

I'm expecting some help in order to design the API, and the functionality in
order to include it (when polished) in the official distribution.

Thanks,

Raul
