Detailed Description

The PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey class provides an interface for private and public keys.

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey provides a simple API for managing keys.

class PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey

class PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey(device, algorithm[, format=QSsl.Pem[, type=QSsl.PrivateKey[, passPhrase=QByteArray()]]])

class PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey(encoded, algorithm[, format=QSsl.Pem[, type=QSsl.PrivateKey[, passPhrase=QByteArray()]]])

class PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey(other)

Parameters:

• algorithm – PySide.QtNetwork.QSsl.KeyAlgorithm
• encoded – PySide.QtCore.QByteArray
• format – PySide.QtNetwork.QSsl.EncodingFormat
• device – PySide.QtCore.QIODevice
• other – PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey
• type – PySide.QtNetwork.QSsl.KeyType
• passPhrase – PySide.QtCore.QByteArray

Constructs a null key.

See also

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.isNull()

Constructs an identical copy of other .

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.algorithm()

Return type:PySide.QtNetwork.QSsl.KeyAlgorithm

Returns the key algorithm.

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.clear()

Clears the contents of this key, making it a null key.

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.isNull()

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.handle()

Return type:PySide.QtCore.Qt::HANDLE

Returns a pointer to the native key handle, if it is available; otherwise a null pointer is returned.

You can use this handle together with the native API to access extended information about the key.

Warning

Use of this function has a high probability of being non-portable, and its return value may vary across platforms, and between minor Qt releases.

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.isNull()

Return type:PySide.QtCore.bool

Returns true if this is a null key; otherwise false.

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.clear()

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.length()

Return type:PySide.QtCore.int

Returns the length of the key in bits, or -1 if the key is null.

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.__ne__(key)

Parameters:key – PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey Return type:PySide.QtCore.bool

Returns true if this key is not equal to key other ; otherwise returns false.

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.__eq__(key)

Parameters:key – PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey Return type:PySide.QtCore.bool

Returns true if this key is equal to other ; otherwise returns false.

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.toDer([passPhrase=QByteArray()])

Parameters:passPhrase – PySide.QtCore.QByteArray Return type:PySide.QtCore.QByteArray

Returns the key in DER encoding. The result is encrypted with passPhrase if the key is a private key and passPhrase is non-empty.

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.toPem([passPhrase=QByteArray()])

Parameters:passPhrase – PySide.QtCore.QByteArray Return type:PySide.QtCore.QByteArray

Returns the key in PEM encoding. The result is encrypted with passPhrase if the key is a private key and passPhrase is non-empty.

PySide.QtNetwork.QSslKey.type()

Return type:PySide.QtNetwork.QSsl.KeyType

Returns the type of the key (i.e., PublicKey or PrivateKey).
