SaveToBytes Method

Saves the keyring to a byte array.

Syntax

• C++
• Objective-C
• C

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* SaveToBytes(int bSecret, int *lpSize = NULL);

Unicode (Windows)
LPSTR SaveToBytes(BOOL bSecret, LPINT lpSize = NULL);

- (NSData*)saveToBytes:(BOOL)secret;

#define MID_PGPKEYRING_SAVETOBYTES 18

SECUREBLACKBOX_EXTERNAL int SECUREBLACKBOX_CALL SecureBlackbox_PGPKeyring_Do(void *lpObj, int methid, int cparam, void *param[], int cbparam[], int64 *lpllVal);

Remarks

Use this method to save the keyring to a byte array. PGP software typically uses two files to store keyrings. Use Secret parameter to specify which part of the keyring you would like to save (public or secret).

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a Byte Array value (with length lpSize); after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.
