Detailed Description

Makes possible downloading and installing signed resource files from a server.

You must subclass it and implement the installResource() pure virtual method to install a resource. For uploading you must create a resource tarball (which is installabale by installResource()) and call the uploadResource() method with this tarball as the argument. Signing and verification is done by the gpg application, so the user must have it installed, otherwise this class does not give any extra security compared to the standard KNewStuff class.

Since:

3.4
