Interface CryptoContent

All Known Implementing Classes:

AuthEncryptedContent, CompressedContent, EncryptedContent, ReceiptContent, SignedContent, SMimeContent

public interface CryptoContent

Interface implemented by all IAIK CryptoContent implementations.

This interface requires to implement three methods, setHeaders to set additional headers/parameters for the part containing the CryptoContent, getContentType for getting the type of the crypto content and getSMimeType to get the smime-type parameter of the ContentType. Within the S/MIME library of IAIK-CMS this interface is implemented by the classes SignedContent, EncryptedContent, AuthEncryptedContent, CompressedContent, PKCS10Content and ReceiptContent for setting the following headers, respectively:

• SignedContent (implicit, signed-data):

       Content-Disposition: attachment";
         filename="smime.p7s"
       Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
       

• SignedContent (implicit, certs-only):

       Content-Disposition: attachment";
         filename="smime.p7c"
       Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
       

• EncryptedContent (enveloped-data):

       Content-Disposition: attachment";
         filename="smime.p7m"
       Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
       

• AuthEncryptedContent (authEnveloped-data):

       Content-Disposition: attachment";
         filename="smime.p7m"
       Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
       

• CompressedContent (compressed-data):

       Content-Disposition: attachment";
         filename="smime.p7z"
       Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
       

• PKCS10Content:

       Content-Disposition: attachment";
         filename="smime.p10"
       Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
       

• PKCS10Content (signed-receipt):

       Content-Disposition: attachment";
         filename="smime.p7m"
       Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
