             Summary: Add the ability to define which algorithms are acceptable 
when processing a security header
                 Key: WSS-406
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSS-406
             Project: WSS4J
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.6.7
            Reporter: Colm O hEigeartaigh
            Assignee: Colm O hEigeartaigh
             Fix For: 1.6.8



This task is to add the ability to define which algorithms are acceptable when 
processing a security header. In WS-SecurityPolicy, you can define an 
"AlgorithmSuite" (e.g. sp:Basic128) which describes which algorithms must be 
used. Currently there is no way to enforce this in WSS4J.

An AlgorithmSuite class will be added to WSS4J, which a third party library can 
populate. This will hold acceptable values for things like signature method, 
digest, c14n algorithms etc., as well as key sizes, and encryption symmetric 
and key wrapping algorithms etc. If WSS4J encounters an Element that does not 
match one of these values then an exception is thrown.
