ExternalDecrypt Event
Handles remote or external decryption.
Syntax
class PGPReaderExternalDecryptEventParams { public: const QString &OperationId(); const QString &Algorithm(); const QString &Pars(); const QString &EncryptedData(); const QString &Data(); void SetData(const QString &qsData); int EventRetVal(); void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal); };
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void ExternalDecrypt(PGPReaderExternalDecryptEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass PGPReader and override this emitter function. virtual int FireExternalDecrypt(PGPReaderExternalDecryptEventParams *e) {...}
Remarks
Assign a handler to this event if you need to delegate a low-level decryption operation to an external, remote, or custom decryption engine. The handler receives a encrypted value in the EncryptedData parameter, and is expected to decrypt it and place the decrypted value into the Data parameter.
OperationId provides a comment about the operation and its origin. It depends on the exact component being used, and may be empty. Algorithm specifies the encryption algorithm being used, and Pars contain algorithm-dependent parameters.
The component uses base16 (hex) encoding for EncryptedData, Data, and Pars parameters. If your decryption engine uses a different input and output encoding, you may need to decode and/or encode the data before and/or after the decryption.
