Public Member Functions

CryptoMaterialAccessMaterial ()
 returns a reference to the crypto material used by this object

const CryptoMaterialGetMaterial () const
 returns a const reference to the crypto material used by this object

virtual PublicKeyAccessPublicKey ()=0
virtual const PublicKeyGetPublicKey () const
void BERDecode (BufferedTransformation &bt)
 for backwards compatibility, calls AccessMaterial().Load(bt)

void DEREncode (BufferedTransformation &bt) const
 for backwards compatibility, calls GetMaterial().Save(bt)

virtual std::string AlgorithmName () const
 returns name of this algorithm, not universally implemented yet

virtual ClonableClone () const
 this is not implemented by most classes yet
