HashValue Property

The hash value of the data.

Syntax

 dsa.getHashValue([callback])
 dsa.setHashValue( hashValue_Buffer, [callback])

Default Value

""


Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getHashValue([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, buffer){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'buffer' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setHashValue([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This property holds the computed hash value for the specified data. This is populated when calling Sign or VerifySignature when an input file is specified by setting InputFile or InputMessage.

If you know the hash value prior to using the class you may specify the pre-computed hash value here.

Hash Notes

The class will determine whether or not to recompute the hash based on the properties that are set. If a file is specified by InputFile or InputMessage the hash will be recomputed when calling Sign or VerifySignature. If the HashValue property is set the class will only sign the hash or verify the hash signature. Setting InputFile or InputMessage clears the HashValue property. Setting the HashValue property clears the input file selection.

Data Type
