63 * &lt;/complexType&gt;
64 * </code></pre>
65 * <p>
66 * An <code>XMLSignature</code> instance may be created by invoking one of the
67 * {@link XMLSignatureFactory#newXMLSignature newXMLSignature} methods of the
68 * {@link XMLSignatureFactory} class.
69 *
70 * <p>If the contents of the underlying document containing the
71 * <code>XMLSignature</code> are subsequently modified, the behavior is
72 * undefined.
73 *
74 * <p>Note that this class is named <code>XMLSignature</code> rather than
75 * <code>Signature</code> to avoid naming clashes with the existing
76 * {@link Signature java.security.Signature} class.
