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 getSignatureCertificationType([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

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

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setSignatureCertificationType([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

Specifies the type of a UserID signature.


pctGeneric	`0`	Generic certification of a User ID and Public Key packet. The issuer of this certification does not make any particular assertion as to how well the certifier has checked that the owner of the key is in fact the person described by the User ID. By default user certifications use Generic type.
pctPersona	`1`	Persona certification of a User ID and Public Key packet. The issuer of this certification has not done any verification of the claim that the owner of this key corresponds to the specified User ID.
pctCasual	`2`	Casual certification of a User ID and a Public Key packet. The issuer of this certification has done some casual verification of the claim of identity.
pctPositive	`3`	Positive certification of a User ID and a Public Key packet. The issuer of this certification has done substantial verification of the claim of identity.

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

This property is read-only and not available at design time.
