MSXML 5.0 SDK

Andy H

Does anyone know where I can obtain a copy of the MSXML 5.0 SDK?

Dmitry Khudorozhkov

As far as I know, MSXML 5 is not available for download. MSXML 6 SDK is available: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=993c0bcf-3bcf-4009-be21-27e85e1857b1&DisplayLang=en

Thanks for your reply. But according to MS's web site MSXML 6.0 does not cater for digitally signing an XML document which is what I need to be able to do. I need to: (1) Perform a C14N transform on the part of an XML doc. (2) Produce a Sha1 digest of the result from (1) above. (3) Convert the result from (2) above into a Base64 string. If anyone knows how to do this using MSXML 6.0 I would be very interested to hear. Otherwise, I need to know how to get hold of MSXML 5.0. Was MSXML 5.0 on any of the MSDN disks?

Maybe the classes inside the System.Security.Cryptography.Xml namespace can help you. For example, there is a XmlDsigC14NTransform that is probably what you're looking for.

Thanks for that information on the .NET namespace, with all respect I was already aware of that namespace, but I am not using .NET and cannot in the application for which I am writing. I am presently investigating the Apache library.
