const QString & provider = QString() )
static

Import the certificate from a file.

Parameters
fileNamethe name (and path, if required) of the file containing the certificate in PEM format
resulta pointer to a ConvertResult, which if not-null will be set to the conversion status
providerthe provider to use, if a specific provider is required

◆ isCA()

bool QCA::Certificate::isCA ( ) const

Test if the Certificate is valid as a Certificate Authority.

Returns
true if the Certificate is valid as a Certificate Authority
Examples
certtest.cpp.

◆ isIssuerOf()

bool QCA::Certificate::isIssuerOf ( const Certificate & other) const

Test if the Certificate has signed another Certificate object and is therefore the issuer.

Parameters
otherthe certificate to test
Returns
true if this certificate is the issuer of the argument

◆ isNull()

bool QCA::Certificate::isNull ( ) const

Test if the certificate is empty (null)

Returns
true if the certificate is null
Examples
publickeyexample.cpp, sslservtest.cpp, and ssltest.cpp.

◆ isSelfSigned()

bool QCA::Certificate::isSelfSigned ( ) const

Test if the Certificate is self-signed.

Returns
true if the certificate is self-signed
Examples
certtest.cpp.

◆ issuerInfo()

CertificateInfo QCA::Certificate::issuerInfo ( ) const

Properties of the issuer of the certificate.

See also
subjectInfo for how the return value works.
Examples
certtest.cpp.

◆ issuerInfoOrdered()

CertificateInfoOrdered QCA::Certificate::issuerInfoOrdered ( ) const

Properties of the issuer of the certificate, as an ordered list (QList of CertificateInfoPair).

This allows access to the certificate information in the same order as they appear in a certificate. Each pair in the list has a type and a value.

See also
issuerInfo for an unordered version
subjectInfoOrdered for the ordered information on the subject
CertificateInfoPair for the elements in the list

◆ issuerKeyId()

QByteArray QCA::Certificate::issuerKeyId ( ) const

The key identifier associated with the issuer.

◆ issuerLocations()

QStringList QCA::Certificate::issuerLocations ( ) const

List of URI locations for issuer certificate files.

Each URI refers to the same issuer file

◆ matchesHostName()

bool QCA::Certificate::matchesHostName ( const QString & host) const

Test if the subject of the certificate matches a specified host name.

This will return true (indicating a match), if the specified host name meets the RFC 2818 validation rules with this certificate.

If the host is an internationalized domain name, then it must be provided in unicode format, not in IDNA ACE/punycode format.

Parameters
hostthe name of the host to compare to

◆ notValidAfter()

QDateTime QCA::Certificate::notValidAfter ( ) const

The latest date that the certificate is valid.

Examples
certtest.cpp, and ssltest.cpp.

◆ notValidBefore()

◆ signatureAlgorithm()

SignatureAlgorithm QCA::Certificate::signatureAlgorithm ( ) const

The signature algorithm used for the signature on this certificate.

◆ subjectInfo()

CertificateInfo QCA::Certificate::subjectInfo ( ) const

Properties of the subject of the certificate, as a QMultiMap.

This is the method that provides information on the subject organisation, common name, DNS name, and so on. The list of information types (i.e. the key to the multi-map) is a CertificateInfoType. The values are a list of QString.

An example of how you can iterate over the list is:

foreach( QString dns, info.values(QCA::DNS) )
{
std::cout << " " << qPrintable(dns) << std::endl;
}
@ DNS
DNS name, id = "GeneralName.dNSName".
Definition qca_cert.h:78
Examples
certtest.cpp.

◆ subjectInfoOrdered()

CertificateInfoOrdered QCA::Certificate::subjectInfoOrdered ( ) const

Properties of the subject of the certificate, as an ordered list (QList of CertificateInfoPair).

This allows access to the certificate information in the same order as they appear in a certificate. Each pair in the list has a type and a value.

For example:

CertificateInfoOrdered info = cert.subjectInfoOrdered();
// info[0].type == CommonName
// info[0].value == "example.com"
Ordered certificate properties type.
Definition qca_cert.h:548
