Interface PGPData

All Superinterfaces:
XMLStructure

public interface PGPData
extends XMLStructure

A representation of the XML PGPData element as defined in the W3C Recommendation for XML-Signature Syntax and Processing. A PGPData object is used to convey information related to PGP public key pairs and signatures on such keys. The XML Schema Definition is defined as:

    <element name="PGPData" type="ds:PGPDataType"/> 
    <complexType name="PGPDataType"> 
      <choice>
        <sequence>
          <element name="PGPKeyID" type="base64Binary"/> 
          <element name="PGPKeyPacket" type="base64Binary" minOccurs="0"/> 
          <any namespace="##other" processContents="lax" minOccurs="0"
           maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
        </sequence>
        <sequence>
          <element name="PGPKeyPacket" type="base64Binary"/> 
          <any namespace="##other" processContents="lax" minOccurs="0"
           maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
        </sequence>
      </choice>
    </complexType>
 
A PGPData instance may be created by invoking one of the newPGPData methods of the KeyInfoFactory class, and passing it byte arrays representing the contents of the PGP public key identifier and/or PGP key material packet, and an optional list of elements from an external namespace.

1.6

Field Detail

TYPE

static final String TYPE
URI identifying the PGPData KeyInfo type: http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#PGPData. This can be specified as the value of the type parameter of the RetrievalMethod class to describe a remote PGPData structure.

Method Detail

getKeyId

byte[] getKeyId()
Returns the PGP public key identifier of this PGPData as defined in RFC 2440, section 11.2.

Returns:
the PGP public key identifier (may be null if not specified). Each invocation of this method returns a new clone to protect against subsequent modification.

getKeyPacket

byte[] getKeyPacket()
Returns the PGP key material packet of this PGPData as defined in RFC 2440, section 5.5.

Returns:
the PGP key material packet (may be null if not specified). Each invocation of this method returns a new clone to protect against subsequent modification.

getExternalElements

List getExternalElements()
Returns an unmodifiable list of XMLStructures representing elements from an external namespace.

Returns:
an unmodifiable list of XMLStructures (may be empty, but never null)
