Member Function Documentation

Cert ( TInt )

IMPORT_C const CX509Certificate &Cert(TIntaIndex)const

Gets the certificate identified by the specified index. Note that Cert(Count()) corresponds to the root (if any) whilst Cert(0) corresponds to the outmost certificate in the chain.

Parameters
aIndexThe ordinal number representing the position of the certificate within the chain.
Return Value
The X.509 certificate at the specified index.

Count ( )

IMPORT_C TIntCount()const

Gets the number of certificates in the chain.

Return Value
The number of certificates in the chain.

DecodeCertsL ( const TDesC8 & )

IMPORT_C CArrayPtrFlat< CX509Certificate > *DecodeCertsL(const TDesC8 &aBinaryData)

Decodes the individual elements of the signed data to construct the certificates.

If the certificate has decoded the members from TeletexString then the return value may be incorrect because TeletexString type is not fully supported by this library. Instead the decode methods perform a direct conversion from 8 to 16bits by adding null characters in the second byte of each character. This will work as expected for cases where the string contains ASCII data.

Parameters
aBinaryDataThe encoded binary representation.
Return Value
The certificate objects.

IsEqualL ( const CX509CertChain & )

IMPORT_C TBoolIsEqualL(const CX509CertChain &aOther)const

Tests whether the specified X.509 certificate chain is equal to this X.509 certificate chain.

Parameters
aOtherThe X.509 certificate chain to be compared.
Return Value
ETrue, if the certificate chains are equal;EFalse, otherwise.
