QSslCipher Class

Member Function Documentation

QSslCipher::QSslCipher()

Constructs an empty QSslCipher object.

QSslCipher::QSslCipher(const QString &name)

Constructs a QSslCipher object for the cipher determined by name. The constructor accepts only supported ciphers (i.e., the name must identify a cipher in the list of ciphers returned by QSslSocket::supportedCiphers()).

You can call isNull() after construction to check if name correctly identified a supported cipher.

This function was introduced in Qt 5.3.

QSslCipher::QSslCipher(const QString &name, QSsl::SslProtocol protocol)

Constructs a QSslCipher object for the cipher determined by name and protocol. The constructor accepts only supported ciphers (i.e., the name and protocol must identify a cipher in the list of ciphers returned by QSslSocket::supportedCiphers()).

You can call isNull() after construction to check if name and protocol correctly identified a supported cipher.

QSslCipher::QSslCipher(const QSslCipher &other)

Constructs an identical copy of the other cipher.

QSslCipher::~QSslCipher()

Destroys the QSslCipher object.

QString QSslCipher::authenticationMethod() const

Returns the cipher's authentication method as a QString.

QString QSslCipher::encryptionMethod() const

Returns the cipher's encryption method as a QString.

bool QSslCipher::isNull() const

Returns true if this is a null cipher; otherwise returns false.

QString QSslCipher::keyExchangeMethod() const

Returns the cipher's key exchange method as a QString.

QString QSslCipher::name() const

Returns the name of the cipher, or an empty QString if this is a null cipher.

See also isNull().

QSsl::SslProtocol QSslCipher::protocol() const

Returns the cipher's protocol type, or QSsl::UnknownProtocol if QSslCipher is unable to determine the protocol (protocolString() may contain more information).

See also protocolString().

QString QSslCipher::protocolString() const

Returns the cipher's protocol as a QString.

See also protocol().

int QSslCipher::supportedBits() const

Returns the number of bits supported by the cipher.

See also usedBits().

void QSslCipher::swap(QSslCipher &other)

Swaps this cipher instance with other. This function is very fast and never fails.

This function was introduced in Qt 5.0.

int QSslCipher::usedBits() const

Returns the number of bits used by the cipher.

See also supportedBits().

bool QSslCipher::operator!=(const QSslCipher &other) const

Returns true if this cipher is not the same as other; otherwise, false is returned.

QSslCipher &QSslCipher::operator=(QSslCipher &&other)

Move-assignment operator.

QSslCipher &QSslCipher::operator=(const QSslCipher &other)

Copies the contents of other into this cipher, making the two ciphers identical.

bool QSslCipher::operator==(const QSslCipher &other) const

Returns true if this cipher is the same as other; otherwise, false is returned.
