Interface EncryptionProperty

public interface EncryptionProperty

Additional information items concerning the generation of the EncryptedData or EncryptedKey can be placed in an EncryptionProperty element (e.g., date/time stamp or the serial number of cryptographic hardware used during encryption). The Target attribute identifies the EncryptedType structure being described. anyAttribute permits the inclusion of attributes from the XML namespace to be included (i.e., xml:space, xml:lang, and xml:base).

It is defined as follows:

<element name='EncryptionProperty' type='xenc:EncryptionPropertyType'/> <complexType name='EncryptionPropertyType' mixed='true'> <choice maxOccurs='unbounded'> <any namespace='##other' processContents='lax'/> </choice> <attribute name='Target' type='anyURI' use='optional'/> <attribute name='Id' type='ID' use='optional'/> <anyAttribute namespace="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"/> </complexType>
