Re: Re: [OpenSAML] Problems creating KeyInfo object

Hi Brentt:

I used the same code trying to sign the assertion, but I always got the empty DigestValue and the empty SignatureValue for the signed assertion. I checked the keyInfo which seems correct and every thing seems fine but I can't find any clue why there is no digest value nor the signature value. Hope you can shed some light on this respect.

Thnaks,

Well, the code in this (very old) thread wasn't about signing, it was
about how to generate a KeyInfo. Totally different subject. Sounds
like you simply are not signing the message with
Signer.signObject(Signature)

Please consult the basic guidelines for signing documented here:

Thanks, Brentt. I will try the method you suggested to sign the
signature. I found it's hard to find the related sample code showing how
to do those stuff.
