+Classes for generating and validating XML digital
+signatures. This package includes classes that represent the core elements 
+defined in the W3C XML digital signature specification:
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.XMLSignature XMLSignature},
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.SignedInfo SignedInfo},
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.CanonicalizationMethod CanonicalizationMethod},
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.SignatureMethod SignatureMethod},
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.Reference Reference}, 
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.DigestMethod DigestMethod},
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.XMLObject XMLObject}, 
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.Manifest Manifest},
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.SignatureProperties SignatureProperties}, and
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.SignatureProperty SignatureProperty}. 
+<code>KeyInfo</code> types
+are defined in the {@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.keyinfo} subpackage.
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.XMLSignatureFactory XMLSignatureFactory}
+is an abstract factory that creates 
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.XMLSignature XMLSignature} objects from scratch
+or from a pre-existing XML representation, such as a DOM node.
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.TransformService} is a service provider
+interface for creating and plugging in implementations of
+transform and canonicalization algorithms.
+
+<p>Of primary significance in this package is the 
+{@link javax.xml.crypto.dsig.XMLSignature XMLSignature} class,
+which allows you to sign and validate an XML digital signature.
