Detailed Description

An CommandInterestGenerator keeps track of a timestamp and generates command interests according to the NFD Signed Command Interests protocol: https://redmine.named-data.net/projects/ndn-cxx/wiki/CommandInterest.

Member Function Documentation

void ndn::CommandInterestGenerator::generate	(	Interest &	interest,
		KeyChain &	keyChain,
		const Name &	certificateName,
		WireFormat &	wireFormat = *WireFormat::getDefaultWireFormat()
	)

Append a timestamp component and a random value component to interest's name.

This ensures that the timestamp is greater than the timestamp used in the previous call. Then use keyChain to sign the interest which appends a SignatureInfo component and a component with the signature bits. If the interest lifetime is not set, this sets it.

Parameters

interest	The interest whose name is append with components.
keyChain	The KeyChain for calling sign.
certificateName	The certificate name of the key to use for signing.
wireFormat	A WireFormat object used to encode the SignatureInfo and to encode interest name for signing. If omitted, use WireFormat getDefaultWireFormat().
