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.
