This is the abstract parent for all transformation-implementation classes. Transformations are applied to data prior to the generation of the cryptographic hash code used in the digital signature. Transformations are associated with data via the Reference.AddTransform( ) method; multiple transformations can be associated with a Reference, and each will be applied to the data in sequence.
