  A representation of the XML Manifest element as defined in
the
W3C Recommendation for XML-Signature Syntax and Processing.
The XML Schema Definition is defined as:

 <element name="Manifest" type="ds:ManifestType"/> 
   <complexType name="ManifestType">
     <sequence>
       <element ref="ds:Reference" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> 
     </sequence>  
     <attribute name="Id" type="ID" use="optional"/> 
   </complexType>
 

A Manifest instance may be created by invoking
one of the newManifest
methods of the XMLSignatureFactory class; for example:

   XMLSignatureFactory factory = XMLSignatureFactory.getInstance("DOM");
   List references = Collections.singletonList(factory.newReference
       ("#reference-1", DigestMethod.SHA1));
   Manifest manifest = factory.newManifest(references, "manifest-1");
