Detailed Description#

A QCoapPrivateKey packages a private key used in negotiating CoAP connections securely. It holds the information required for authentication using pre-shared keys and X.509 certificates.

__init__()#

Constructs an empty instance of QCoapPrivateKey .

__init__(key, algorithm[, format=QSsl.Pem[, passPhrase=QByteArray()]])
Parameters:

Constructs a QCoapPrivateKey from the byte array key using the specified algorithm and encoding format.

If the key is encrypted then passPhrase is required to decrypt it.

__init__(other)
Parameters:

otherQCoapPrivateKey

Copies the contents of other into this key, making the two keys identical.

__init__(handle)
Parameters:

handleQt::HANDLE

Constructs a QCoapPrivateKey from a native key handle.

algorithm()#
Return type:

KeyAlgorithm

Returns the key algorithm.

encodingFormat()#
Return type:

EncodingFormat

Returns the encoding format of the key.

handle()#
Return type:

Qt::HANDLE

Returns a pointer to the native key handle.

isNull()#
Return type:

bool

Returns true if the private key is null, returns false otherwise.

key()#
Return type:

QByteArray

Returns the encoded private key.

passPhrase()#
Return type:

QByteArray

Returns the passphrase for the key.

swap(other)#
Parameters:

otherQCoapPrivateKey

Swaps this private key with other. This operation is very fast and never fails.
