Detailed Description

Public Key Signer. Use the sign_message() functions for small messages. Use multiple calls update() to process large messages and generate the signature by finally calling signature().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PK_Signer() [1/2]

Botan::PK_Signer::PK_Signer	(	const Private_Key &	key,
		RandomNumberGenerator &	rng,
		const std::string &	emsa,
		Signature_Format	format = IEEE_1363,
		const std::string &	provider = ""
	)

Construct a PK Signer.

Parameters

key	the key to use inside this signer
rng	the random generator to use
emsa	the EMSA to use An example would be "EMSA1(SHA-224)".
format	the signature format to use
provider	the provider to use
