Instance Methods

algorithm

- (GPGPublicKeyAlgorithm)algorithm

Returns subkey algorithm. The algorithm is the crypto algorithm for which the subkey can be used. The value corresponds to the GPGPublicKeyAlgorithm enum values.

canAuthenticate

- (BOOL)canAuthenticate

Returns whether the subkey can be used for authentication.

canCertify

- (BOOL)canCertify

Returns whether the subkey can be used to create key certificates.

canEncrypt

- (BOOL)canEncrypt

Returns whether the subkey can be used for encryption.

canSign

- (BOOL)canSign

Returns whether the subkey can be used to create data signatures.

creationDate

- (NSCalendarDate *)creationDate

Returns subkey creation date. Returns nil when not available or invalid.

expirationDate

- (NSCalendarDate *)expirationDate

Returns subkey expiration date. Returns nil when there is none or is not available or is invalid.

fingerprint

- (NSString *)fingerprint

Returns subkey fingerprint in hexadecimal digits, if available. This is usually only available for the primary key.

hasKeyExpired

- (BOOL)hasKeyExpired

Returns whether subkey is expired.

isKeyDisabled

- (BOOL)isKeyDisabled

Returns whether subkey is disabled.

isKeyInvalid

- (BOOL)isKeyInvalid

Returns whether subkey is invalid.

isKeyRevoked

- (BOOL)isKeyRevoked

Returns whether subkey is revoked.

isSecret

- (BOOL)isSecret

Returns whether the subkey is secret.

key

- (GPGKey *)key

Returns parent key.

keyID

- (NSString *)keyID

Returns subkey key ID in hexadecimal digits.

length

- (unsigned int)length

Returns subkey length, in bits.
