[xmlsec] XMLSEC and Mac Os X

[Bernardo Hoehl]

Dear friends,


I have used XMLSEC in the past as it was installed in /opt directory using Macports.

I have an xCode project at this moment that needs to sign an XML file, and the command I would use for this would be:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib; /opt/local/bin/xmlsec1 sign --id-attr:Id infNFe --output /path/to/signed.xml --pkcs12 /path/to/my/p12.pfx --pwd XXXXPASSWORDXXXX --trusted-pem /path/to/my.pem /path/to/unsigned.xml

When installing XMLSEC via Mac Ports, files are linked in /opt directory as you an notice by running the command:

bernardo$  otool -L /opt/local/bin/xmlsec1 
	/opt/local/bin/xmlsec1:
	/opt/local/lib/libxmlsec1.1.dylib (compatibility version 4.0.0, current version 4.13.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libxslt.1.dylib (compatibility version 3.0.0, current version 3.26.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libxml2.2.dylib (compatibility version 10.0.0, current version 10.8.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libz.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.5)
	/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 125.2.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libiconv.2.dylib (compatibility version 8.0.0, current version 8.0.0)


Unfortunately Apple demands now that apps must be sandboxed, and so my app does not have access to /opt directory, and I can not install XMLSEC on the users file system.

I have visited http://www.aleksey.com/xmlsec/api/xmlsec-notes-compiling-unix.html,and I find it very hard to understand what I need to do is to bundle XMLSEC into my xCode project, and make XMLSEC run within my sandboxed app.

Can someone please adivise me on the steps I need to take?

Has someone done this before? Can you help me with an xCode sample project that contains XMLSEC?

Thank you very much for reading my email,
