    <element ref="ds:CanonicalizationMethod"/>
    <element ref="ds:SignatureMethod"/>
    <element ref="ds:Reference" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>

  <attribute name="Id" type="ID" use="optional"/>
</complexType>
A SignedInfo instance may be created by invoking one of the newSignedInfo methods of the XMLSignatureFactory class.
