NAME

XML::Compile::C14N - XML Canonicalization

SYNOPSIS

my $schema = XML::Compile::Cache->new(...);
my $c14n   = XML::Compile::C14N->new(schema => $schema);

DESCRIPTION

XML canonicalization is used to enforce an explicit formatting style on de XML documents. It is required to have a reproducable output when, for instance, digital signatures gets applied to parts of the document.

WARNING: Although you may wish for more, this module currently only helps to decode the C14N information, for instance used in digital signatures. The actual process of canonicalization is not (yet) implemented.
