Package xades4j.production

Interface XadesSigner

public interface XadesSigner

Interface for a producer of signatures. The features of the produced signatures depend on the profile configuration.

All the exceptions defined in the current package may be thrown during production. They are organized as a tree which means that one can go from rough to fine-grained handling by catching exceptions in the different branches/depths of the tree.
