Class KeyIdentifier

java.lang.Object

org.bouncycastle.bcpg.KeyIdentifier

public class KeyIdentifier
extends java.lang.Object

Utility class for matching key-ids / fingerprints. A KeyIdentifier can be created from either a 64-bit key-id, a fingerprint, or both. This class was created to enable a seamless transition from use of key-ids in the API towards identifying keys via fingerprints.

Constructor Detail

KeyIdentifier

public KeyIdentifier(java.lang.String hexEncoded)

KeyIdentifier

public KeyIdentifier(byte[] fingerprint)

Create a new KeyIdentifier based on a keys fingerprint. For fingerprints matching the format of a v4, v5 or v6 key, the constructor will try to derive the corresponding key-id from the fingerprint.

Parameters:

fingerprint - fingerprint

KeyIdentifier

public KeyIdentifier(byte[] fingerprint,
                     long keyId)

Create a KeyIdentifier based on the given fingerprint and key-id.

Parameters:

fingerprint - fingerprint

keyId - key-id

KeyIdentifier

public KeyIdentifier(long keyId)

Create a KeyIdentifier based on the given key-id. fingerprint will be set to null.

Parameters:

keyId - key-id

Method Detail

wildcard

public static KeyIdentifier wildcard()

Create a wildcard KeyIdentifier.

Returns:

wildcard key identifier

getFingerprint

public byte[] getFingerprint()

Return the fingerprint of the KeyIdentifier. fingerprint might be null, if the KeyIdentifier was created from just a key-id. If isWildcard() returns true, this method returns an empty, but non-null array.

Returns:

fingerprint

getKeyId

public long getKeyId()

Return the key-id of the KeyIdentifier. This might be 0L if isWildcard() returns true, or if an unknown fingerprint was passed in.

Returns:

key-id

isWildcard

public boolean isWildcard()

Returns true, if the KeyIdentifier specifies a wildcard (matches anything). This is for example used with anonymous recipient key-ids / fingerprints, where the recipient needs to try all available keys to decrypt the message.

Returns:

is wildcard

hasFingerprint

public boolean hasFingerprint(byte[] fingerprint)

Return true if the KeyIdentifier has a fingerprint corresponding to the passed in one.

Parameters:

fingerprint - the fingerprint to match against.

Returns:

true if there's a match, false otherwise.

matches

public boolean matches(KeyIdentifier other)

Return true, if this KeyIdentifier matches the given other KeyIdentifier. This will return true if the fingerprint matches, or if the key-id matches, or if isWildcard() returns true.

Parameters:

other - the identifier we are matching against.

Returns:

true if we match other, false otherwise.

matchesExplicit

public boolean matchesExplicit(KeyIdentifier other)

matches

public static boolean matches(java.util.List<KeyIdentifier> identifiers,
                              KeyIdentifier identifier,
                              boolean explicit)

isPresentIn

public boolean isPresentIn(java.util.List<KeyIdentifier> others)

Return true, if this KeyIdentifier is present in the given list of KeyIdentifier . This will return true if a fingerprint matches, or if a key-id matches, or if isWildcard() returns true.

Parameters:

others - the list of key identifiers to check.

Returns:

true, if the identifier is present in the list, false otherwise.
