The passphrase for the key's secret key (if any).

Syntax

__property String KeyPassphrase[int KeyIndex] = { read=FKeyPassphrase, write=FSetKeyPassphrase };

Default Value

Remarks

The passphrase for the key's secret key (if any). This must be specified before operations requiring the secret key are attempted. The passphrase may be supplied in this property or through the KeyPassphrase event, which will fire when a passphrase is required.

The passphrase is required when using the following methods in KeyMgr:

  • AddUserId
  • SignUserId
  • ChangeExpirationDate
  • ChangePassphrase

When using the OpenPGP component, or an email-based component, the following methods require a passphrase for the key:

  • Decrypt
  • Sign
  • SignAndEncrypt

The KeyIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the KeyCount property.

This property is not available at design time.
