Detailed Description

An DSA public key or public/private key pair that can be used for encryption.

Knows how to encode/decode itself into a string of hex digits for easy transport.

Member Function Documentation

bool WvDSAKey::isok (   )  const [virtual]

By default, returns true if geterr() == 0. Might be overridden so that isok() == false even though no error code has been specified. Reimplemented from WvErrorBase. Definition at line 66 of file wvdsa.cc. References dsa, and WvErrorBase::errstring.

virtual int WvErrorBase::geterr (   )  const [inline, virtual, inherited]

If isok() is false, return the system error number corresponding to the error, -1 for a special error string (which you can obtain with errstr()) or 0 on end of file. If isok() is true, returns an undefined number. Reimplemented in WvHTTPStream, WvStreamClone, and WvX509Mgr. Definition at line 48 of file wverror.h. References WvErrorBase::errnum. Referenced by UniIniGen::commit(), WvX509Mgr::errstr(), WvStreamClone::errstr(), WvErrorBase::errstr(), WvError::get(), UniFileSystemGen::get(), WvX509Mgr::geterr(), WvStreamClone::geterr(), WvEncoderStream::isok(), WvConf::load_file(), WvConf::save(), WvStream::seterr(), WvErrorBase::seterr(), WvMagicCircle::WvMagicCircle(), and WvHttpPool::~WvHttpPool().

void WvErrorBase::seterr (  int  _errnum  )  [virtual, inherited]

Set the errnum variable -- we have an error. If called more than once, seterr() doesn't change the error code away from the previous one. That way, we remember the _original_ cause of our problems. Subclasses may want to override seterr(int) to shut themselves down (eg. WvStream::close()) when an error condition is set. Note that seterr(WvString) will call seterr(-1). Reimplemented in WvStream.
