Hi!
Thanks for the fast answer.
I have read the documentation of xmlSecSimpleKeysMngrLoadPemCert but it does
not make clear how the certificate loaded can be used in the verification
process.
Should this be done together with setting the flag
xmlSecKeyOriginKeyManager?
I tried that but I could not get it to work. Should it?
Or should I use the flag xmlSecKeyOriginKeyName? But what is then the key of
the certificate I load with xmlSecSimpleKeysMngrLoadPemCert? If I sign with
dsig:KeyName set to something it will have have to match the keyname of the
certificate loaded into the keys manager. But as far as I can see there is
no way of specifying keyname when loading a certificate with
xmlSecSimpleKeysMngrLoadPemCert.
:)
