Detailed Description

Wraps keys and related functionality.

Shared credential implementations should implement reference counting and honor any locking parameters to ensure appropriate synchronization.

Member Function Documentation

virtual const char* xmltooling::Credential::getAlgorithm (   )  const [pure virtual]

Returns an algorithm identifier for the Credential. Returns: the Credential algorithm, or nullptr if indeterminate Implemented in xmltooling::BasicX509Credential.

virtual const CredentialContext* xmltooling::Credential::getCredentalContext (   )  const [virtual]

Get the credential context information, which provides additional information specific to the context in which the credential was resolved. Returns: resolution context of the credential

virtual xmlsignature::KeyInfo* xmltooling::Credential::getKeyInfo (  bool  compact = false  )  const [pure virtual]

Returns a ds:KeyInfo object representing the Credential for use in communicating with other entities. Parameters: compact  true iff the communication medium is such that only compact forms should be included Returns: a KeyInfo object, which must be freed by the caller Implemented in xmltooling::BasicX509Credential.

virtual const std::set<std::string>& xmltooling::Credential::getKeyNames (   )  const [pure virtual]

Returns names representing the Credential. Names should be unique in the context of the comparisons against CredentialCriteria that deployments expect to see. Returns: a sorted set of names Implemented in xmltooling::BasicX509Credential.

virtual unsigned int xmltooling::Credential::getKeySize (   )  const [pure virtual]

Returns the size of the key in bits. Returns: the key size, or 0 if indeterminate Implemented in xmltooling::BasicX509Credential.

virtual XSECCryptoKey* xmltooling::Credential::getPrivateKey (   )  const [pure virtual]

Returns a secret or private key to use for signing or decryption operations. Returns: a secret or private key Implemented in xmltooling::BasicX509Credential.

virtual XSECCryptoKey* xmltooling::Credential::getPublicKey (   )  const [pure virtual]

Returns a secret or public key to use for verification or encryption operations. Returns: a secret or public key Implemented in xmltooling::BasicX509Credential.

virtual unsigned int xmltooling::Credential::getUsage (   )  const [pure virtual]

Get credential usage types. Returns: the usage bitmask Implemented in xmltooling::BasicX509Credential.
