GPGUserID

Inherits From:

GPGObject : NSObject

Conforms To:

NSCopying

Declared In:

GPGME/GPGUserID.h

Class Description

A user ID represents an identity associated with a key. This identity is generally composed of a name and an email adress, and can have a comment associated.

The signatures on a key (in fact a user ID) are only available if the key was retrieved via a listing operation with the GPGKeyListModeSignatures mode enabled, because it is expensive to retrieve all signatures of a key.
