 The canonical XML specification allows for different algorithms each identified by a URI. There are certain standard algorithms such as http://www.w3.org/2001/10/xml-exc-c14n# and http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xml-c14n-20010315#WithComments (Truth be told, this doesn't seem to have been part of the original vision of canonical XML, but was invented by the DSIG and Encryption folks; and it seems to have been adopted with relatively little trouble.) Recently I've encountered a need for some special purpose algorithms. For instance http://www.elharo.com/c14n/MyPrivateAlgorithm or http://www.elharo.com/c14n/MyPrivateAlgorithm#IgnoreWhiteSpace Has anyone written any sort of canonicalizer that is pluggable in any way? i.e. that allows the user to extend it with new methods? That is not just limited to preconceived canonicalization methods? I'm not sure what such a thing would look like. I might experiment with something in XOM, which already supports the four common methods; but I thought I'd check first to see if anyone else had thought about this and made any progress. -- Elliotte Rusty Harold elharo@m...
