Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Data() [1/2]

ndn::Data::Data ( const Name name = Name())
explicit

Construct an unsigned Data packet with given name and empty Content.

Warning
In certain contexts that use Data::shared_from_this(), the Data must be created using std::make_shared. Otherwise, shared_from_this() will throw std::bad_weak_ptr. One example where this is necessary is storing Data into a subclass of InMemoryStorage.

Definition at line 27 of file data.cpp.

◆ Data() [2/2]

ndn::Data::Data ( const Block wire)
explicit

Construct a Data packet by decoding from wire.

Parameters
wireTLV element of type tlv::Data; may be signed or unsigned.
Warning
In certain contexts that use Data::shared_from_this(), the Data must be created using std::make_shared. Otherwise, shared_from_this() will throw std::bad_weak_ptr. One example where this is necessary is storing Data into a subclass of InMemoryStorage.

Definition at line 32 of file data.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

) const

Finalize Data packet encoding with the specified signature.

Parameters
encoderEncodingBuffer containing Name, MetaInfo, Content, and SignatureInfo, but without SignatureValue and the outermost Type-Length of the Data element.
signatureRaw signature bytes, without TLV Type and Length; this will become the TLV-VALUE of the SignatureValue element added to the packet.

This method is intended to be used in concert with wireEncode(encoder, true), e.g.:

Data data;
...
EncodingBuffer encoder;
data.wireEncode(encoder, true);
...
auto signature = create_signature_over_signed_portion(encoder.data(), encoder.size());

Parameters
encoderEncodingEstimator or EncodingBuffer instance.
wantUnsignedPortionOnlyIf true, prepend only Name, MetaInfo, Content, and SignatureInfo to encoder, but omit SignatureValue and the outermost TLV Type and Length of the Data element. This is intended to be used with wireEncode(EncodingBuffer&, span<const uint8_t>) const.
Exceptions
