Net::Jabber::Key.3pm

NAME

Net::Jabber::Key - Jabber Key Library

SYNOPSIS

   Net::Jabber::Key is a module that provides a developer easy access
   to generating, caching, and comparing keys.
 
 

DESCRIPTION

   Key.pm is a helper module for the Net::Jabber::Transport.  When the
   Transport talks to a Client it sends a key and expects to get that
   key back from the Client.  This module provides an API to generate,
   cache, and then compare the key send from the Client.
 
 

Basic Functions

     $Key = new Net::Jabber::Key();
 
     $key = $Key->Generate();
 
     $key = $Key->Create("bob\@jabber.org");
 
     $test = $Key->Compare("bob\@jabber.org","some key");
 
 

METHODS

Basic Functions

     new(debug=>string,       - creates the Key object.  debug should
         debugfh=>FileHandle,   be set to the path for the debug
         debuglevel=>integer)   log to be written.  If set to "stdout" 
                                then the debug will go there.  Also, you
                                can specify a filehandle that already
                                exists and use that.  debuglevel controls
                                the amount of debug.  0 is none, 1 is
                                normal, 2 is all.
 
     Generate() - returns a key in Digest SHA1 form based on the current
                  time and the PID.
 
     Create(cacheString) - generates a key and caches it with the key 
                           of cacheString.  Create returns the key.
 
     Compare(cacheString, - compares the key stored in the cache under
             keyString)     cacheString with the keyString.  Returns 1
                            if they match, and 0 otherwise.
