XMLValidateContext (Java SE 11 & JDK 11 )
Keywords: javax.xml.crypto.dsig.XMLValidateContext interface

Module java.xml.crypto
Package javax.xml.crypto.dsig

## Interface XMLValidateContext

- All Superinterfaces:
    `XMLCryptoContext`
  All Known Implementing Classes:
    `DOMValidateContext`

      public interface XMLValidateContext
      extends XMLCryptoContext

  Contains context information for validating XML Signatures. This interface is primarily intended for type-safety.

  Note that `XMLValidateContext` instances can contain information and state specific to the XML signature structure it is used with. The results are unpredictable if an `XMLValidateContext` is used with different signature structures (for example, you should not use the same `XMLValidateContext` instance to validate two different `XMLSignature` objects).

  Supported Properties

  The following properties can be set by an application using the `setProperty` method.

  - `javax.xml.crypto.dsig.cacheReference`: value must be a `Boolean`. This property controls whether or not the `Reference.validate` method will cache the dereferenced content and pre-digested input for subsequent retrieval via the `Reference.getDereferencedData` and `Reference.getDigestInputStream` methods. The default value if not specified is `Boolean.FALSE`.
