Known Derived Interfaces

GckObject is required by GckObjectCache.

Description

A GckObject holds a handle to a PKCS11 object such as a key or certificate. Token objects are stored on the token persistently. Others are transient and are called session objects.

Functions

gck_object_from_handle ()

GckObject *
gck_object_from_handle (GckSession *session,
                        gulong object_handle);

Initialize a GckObject from a raw PKCS#11 handle. Normally you would use gck_session_create_object() or gck_session_find_objects() to access objects.

Parameters

session

The session through which this object is accessed or created.

 

object_handle

The raw CK_OBJECT_HANDLE of the object.

 

Returns

The new GckObject. You should use g_object_unref() when done with this object.

gck_objects_from_handle_array ()

GList *
gck_objects_from_handle_array (GckSession *session,
                               gulong *object_handles,
                               gulong n_object_handles);

Initialize a list of GckObject from raw PKCS#11 handles. The handles argument must contain contiguous CK_OBJECT_HANDLE handles in an array.

Parameters

session

The session for these objects

 

object_handles

The raw object handles.

[array length=n_object_handles]

n_object_handles

The number of raw object handles.

 

Returns

The list of GckObject objects. You should use gck_list_unref_free() when done with this list.

gck_object_equal ()

gboolean
gck_object_equal (gconstpointer object1,

Checks equality of two objects. Two GckObject objects can point to the same underlying PKCS#11 object.

Parameters

object1

a pointer to the first GckObject.

[type Gck.Object]

object2

a pointer to the second GckObject.

[type Gck.Object]

Returns

TRUE if object1 and object2 are equal. FALSE if either is not a GckObject.


gck_object_hash ()

This function is intended for easily hashing a GckObject to add to a GHashTable or similar data structure.

Parameters

object

a pointer to a GckObject.

[type Gck.Object]

struct GckObjectClass

struct GckObjectClass {
	GObjectClass parent;
};

The class for a GckObject.

If the attribute_types field is set by a derived class, then the a GckEnumerator which has been setup using gck_enumerator_set_object_type() with this derived type will retrieve these attributes when enumerating. In this case the class must implement an 'attributes' property of boxed type GCK_TYPE_ATTRIBUTES.
