public class CipherContext : Object

Encryption and digital signature interface.

CipherContext is an abstract base class that provides a unified interface for encrypting, signing, decrypting, and verifying MimePart message parts.

Concrete implementations include GpgContext for OpenPGP/GnuPG and SMIMEContext for S/MIME.

Each implementation sets protocol strings (sign_protocol, encrypt_protocol, key_protocol) that are used to populate the appropriate MIME header fields in signed and encrypted parts.

Because a single message part may have multiple layers of signing or encryption using different algorithms, the validity result is represented as a tree of CipherValidity structures, each describing the signature or encryption status of one layer.

Properties:

public Session session { get; construct; }
The corresponding Session

Static methods:

public static Quark error_quark ()

Creation methods:

public CipherContext (Session? session)
This creates a new CamelCipherContext object which is used to sign, verify, encrypt and decrypt streams.

Methods:

public async CipherValidity decrypt (MimePart ipart, MimePart opart, int io_priority, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Asynchronously decrypts ipart into opart.
public virtual CipherValidity decrypt_sync (MimePart ipart, MimePart opart, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Decrypts ipart into opart.
public async bool encrypt (string? userid, GenericArray<string> recipients, MimePart ipart, MimePart opart, int io_priority, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Asynchronously encrypts the clear-text ipart and writes the resulting cipher-text to opart.
public virtual bool encrypt_sync (string? userid, GenericArray<string> recipients, MimePart ipart, MimePart opart, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Encrypts the clear-text ipart and writes the resulting cipher-text to opart.
public unowned Session? get_session ()
public virtual unowned string hash_to_id (CipherHash hash)
public virtual CipherHash id_to_hash (string id)
public async bool sign (string userid, CipherHash hash, MimePart ipart, MimePart opart, int io_priority, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Asynchronously converts the (unsigned) part ipart into a new self-contained MIME part opart.
public virtual bool sign_sync (string userid, CipherHash hash, MimePart ipart, MimePart opart, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Converts the (unsigned) part ipart into a new self-contained MIME part opart.
public async CipherValidity verify (MimePart ipart, int io_priority, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Asynchronously verifies the signature.
public virtual CipherValidity verify_sync (MimePart ipart, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Verifies the signature.
