Detailed Description

represents the PIB

The PIB (Public Information Base) stores the public portion of a user's cryptography keys. The format and location of stored information is indicated by the PibLocator. The PIB is designed to work with a TPM (Trusted Platform Module) which stores private keys. There is a one-to-one association between PIB and TPM, and therefore the TpmLocator is recorded by the PIB to enforce this association and prevent one from operating on mismatched PIB and TPM.

Information in the PIB is organized in a hierarchy of Identity-Key-Certificate. At the top level, the Pib class provides access to identities, and allows setting a default identity. Properties of an identity can be accessed after obtaining an Identity object.

Exceptions
PibImpl::Errorwhen underlying implementation has non-semantic error.

Identity & ndn::security::Pib::getDefaultIdentity ( ) const

Get the default identity.

Returns
the default identity.
Exceptions
Pib::Errorif no default identity.

Definition at line 108 of file pib.cpp.

const IdentityContainer & ndn::security::Pib::getIdentities ( ) const

Get all the identities.

Definition at line 87 of file pib.cpp.

Identity ndn::security::Pib::getIdentity ( const Name identityName) const

Get an identity with name identityName.

Parameters
identityNameThe name for the identity to get.
Exceptions
Pib::Errorif the identity does not exist.

Definition at line 81 of file pib.cpp.

std::string ndn::security::Pib::getPibLocator ( ) const

Get PIB Locator.

Definition at line 42 of file pib.cpp.

std::string ndn::security::Pib::getScheme ( ) const
inline

return the scheme of the PibLocator

Definition at line 73 of file pib.hpp.

std::string ndn::security::Pib::getTpmLocator ( ) const

Get TPM Locator.

Definition at line 54 of file pib.cpp.

void ndn::security::Pib::setTpmLocator ( const std::string &  tpmLocator)

Set the corresponding TPM information to tpmLocator.

If the provided tpmLocator is different from the existing one, the PIB will be reset, otherwise nothing will be changed.

Parameters
tpmLocatorThe name for the new TPM locator
