Other UIDs

UID Description Value

KPassedHandleToKeyUid

Use this UID as CKey key parameter, whenever the CryptoSPI user has just the handle and not the actual key. The CryptoSPI plug-in searches for this ID and invokes the appropriate APIs for providing access to the key.

Note: This UID is enabled only if the SYMBIAN_ENABLE_SDP_WMDRM_SUPPORT macro is enabled.

0x20025161

Example usage of KPassedHandleToKeyUid

The following sequence of steps explains the use of KPassedHandleToKeyUid in the key parameter, which, along with the key property creates a CKey object. This CKey object is one of the parameters in the creation of a signer object, which can be used for performing signing operations.

  1. Define the key property.

    Create a CCryptoParams object for the key parameter. Add the key handle and KPassedHandleToKeyUid to the CCryptoParams object by using CCryptoParams::AddL().

  2. Create a CKey object by passing instance of the key property and the CCryptoParams object containing KPassedHandleToKeyUid.

  3. Create a signer object by using the CKey object as one of the parameters. This signer object can be used for performing signing operations.

The following code snippet demonstrates the use of KPassedHandleToKeyUid: 


.
.
.
// Define the key property
TKeyProperty keyProperty;
keyProperty.iAlgorithmUid = KRsaSignerUid;

// Create the key parameter object
CCryptoParams* keyParameters = CCryptoParams::NewLC();

// iHandle is of type TCTTokenObjectHandle. It contains handle to the key
keyParameters->AddL(iHandle.iObjectId, KPassedHandleToKeyUid);

// Create a CKey object
CKey* newKey = CKey::NewL(keyProperty, *keyParameters);

// Create a signer plug-in object
CSigner * implsig = NULL;    

// Create the signer object
CSignatureFactory::CreateSignerL(implsig, KRsaSignerUid, *newKey, KPaddingModePkcs1_v1_5_SignatureUid, NULL);
.
.
.
