## Description ## Details ### enum xmlSecDSigStatus
    typedef enum {
        xmlSecDSigStatusUnknown = 0,
        xmlSecDSigStatusSucceeded,
        xmlSecDSigStatusInvalid
    } xmlSecDSigStatus;
XML Digital signature processing status.
xmlSecDSigStatusUnknown | the status is unknow.
xmlSecDSigStatusSucceeded | the processing succeeded.
xmlSecDSigStatusInvalid | the processing failed.
### XMLSEC_DSIG_FLAGS_IGNORE_MANIFESTS
    #define XMLSEC_DSIG_FLAGS_IGNORE_MANIFESTS			0x00000001
If this flag is set then <dsig:Manifests/> nodes will not be processed. ### XMLSEC_DSIG_FLAGS_STORE_SIGNEDINFO_REFERENCES
    #define XMLSEC_DSIG_FLAGS_STORE_SIGNEDINFO_REFERENCES		0x00000002
If this flag is set then pre-digest buffer for <dsig:Reference/> child of <dsig:KeyInfo/> element will be stored in xmlSecDSigCtx. ### XMLSEC_DSIG_FLAGS_STORE_MANIFEST_REFERENCES
    #define XMLSEC_DSIG_FLAGS_STORE_MANIFEST_REFERENCES		0x00000004
If this flag is set then pre-digest buffer for <dsig:Reference/> child of <dsig:Manifest/> element will be stored in xmlSecDSigCtx. ### XMLSEC_DSIG_FLAGS_STORE_SIGNATURE
    #define XMLSEC_DSIG_FLAGS_STORE_SIGNATURE			0x00000008

    #define XMLSEC_DSIG_FLAGS_USE_VISA3D_HACK			0x00000010
If this flag is set then URI ID references are resolved directly without using XPointers. This allows one to sign/verify Visa3D documents that don't follow XML, XPointer and XML DSig specifications. ### struct xmlSecDSigCtx

The Reference Element (http://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/sec-Reference) Reference is an element that may occur one or more times. It specifies a digest algorithm and digest value, and optionally an identifier of the object being signed, the type of the object, and/or a list of transforms to be applied prior to digesting. The identification (URI) and transforms describe how the digested content (i.e., the input to the digest method) was created. The Type attribute facilitates the processing of referenced data. For example, while this specification makes no requirements over external data, an application may wish to signal that the referent is a Manifest. An optional ID attribute permits a Reference to be referenced from elsewhere.

Returns : | 0 on succes or aa negative value otherwise.
