public class PGPPublicKeyRing
extends PGPKeyRing

Class to hold a single master public key and its subkeys.

Often PGP keyring files consist of multiple master keys, if you are trying to process or construct one of these you should use the PGPPublicKeyRingCollection class.

Join two copies of the same certificate. The certificates must have the same primary key, but may carry different subkeys, user-ids and signatures. The resulting certificate will carry the sum of both certificates subkeys, user-ids and signatures.

This method will ignore trust packets on the second copy of the certificate and instead copy the local certificate's trust packets to the joined certificate.

Parameters:
first - local copy of the certificate
second - remote copy of the certificate (e.g. from a key server)
Returns:
joined key ring
Throws:
PGPException

join

public static PGPPublicKeyRing join(PGPPublicKeyRing first,
                                    PGPPublicKeyRing second,
                                    boolean joinTrustPackets,
                                    boolean allowSubkeySigsOnNonSubkey)
                             throws PGPException
Join two copies of the same certificate. The certificates must have the same primary key, but may carry different subkeys, user-ids and signatures. The resulting certificate will carry the sum of both certificates subkeys, user-ids and signatures.

For each subkey holds: If joinTrustPackets is set to true and the second key is carrying a trust packet, the trust packet will be copied to the joined key. Otherwise, the joined key will carry the trust packet of the local copy.

Parameters:
first - local copy of the certificate
second - remote copy of the certificate (e.g. from a key server)
joinTrustPackets - if true, trust packets from the second certificate copy will be carried over into the joined certificate
allowSubkeySigsOnNonSubkey - if true, the resulting joined certificate may carry subkey signatures on its primary key
Returns:
joined certificate
Throws:
PGPException
