Contains the necessary information to digitally sign this deployment manifest.

Syntax

  
      <Signature>   
   XML signature information   
</Signature>

Remarks

Signing a deployment manifest using an envelope signature is optional, but recommended. For more information about signing XML files see the World Wide Web Consortium Recommendation, "XML-Signature Syntax and Processing," described at http://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/.

If you want to sign your manifest, hashes must be provided for all files. A manifest with files that are not hashed cannot be signed, because users cannot verify the contents of unhashed files.

Example

The following code example illustrates a Signature element in a deployment manifest used in a ClickOnce deployment.

<Signature xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#">  
  <SignedInfo>  
    <CanonicalizationMethod Algorithm=  
           "http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xml-c14n-20010315" />  
    <SignatureMethod Algorithm=  
           "http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#rsa-sha1" />
