document.canonicalize(comments) only supports XML_C14N_1_1

[pederbl]

libxml-ruby only supports XML_C14N_1_1 canonicalization mode. libxml2 also supports XML_C14N_1_0 and XML_C14N_EXCLUSIVE_1_0. I need XML_C14N_EXCLUSIVE_1_0 support and would like to add it. It seems like a small fix should be enough to fix this.

I need help to figure out how to run the test suite. When I run "rake test", I get the following error:

$ rake test

Thanks,

Error message says libxml_ruby doesn't exist. That is the .so file. Have you successfully built the gem?

[pederbl]

Sorry for putting two problems in the same issue. The main issue here is actually the lack of full support for canonicalisation.

[cfis]

Ok. So on the canonicalisation issue, that code was added a couple months ago via a pull request. I'm happy to accept a patch that add support for all of libxml2's canonicalisation modes. Would you be interested in putting one together?

[cfis]

Just following up on this, still interested?

[pederbl]

Thanks for following up. Unfortunately, I'm tied up in other things now.

[cfis]

Ok, let me know if you want to reopen.

[cfis]

Since this is so old, going to close.
