Re: resolve HTTP URI with Proxy

[Berin Lautenbach <be...@wingsofhermes.org>]

Dieter,

Apologies for delay in reply - have been away.

The library uses classes that inherit from XSECURIResolver to handle URI 
resolving.  The Xerces resolver is what we use for basic interop 
testing, but it's not designed for hard work.

To do something with proxies, you will need to implement your own 
resolver, and then call DSIGSignature::setURIResolver(theResolver) to 
tell the signature class to use it.

Cheers,
	Berin
