Enclosing class:
KeyAccessor
public static class KeyAccessor.ViaUserId extends KeyAccessor
Address the key via a user-id (e.g. "Alice <alice@wonderland.lit>"). In this case we are sourcing preferred algorithms from the user-id certification first.

      public ViaUserId(@Nonnull KeyRingInfo info, @Nonnull SubkeyIdentifier key, @Nonnull String userId)
      Access a key via user-id.

    • getSignatureWithPreferences

      @Nonnull public org.bouncycastle.openpgp.PGPSignature getSignatureWithPreferences()
      Description copied from class: KeyAccessor
      Depending on the way we address the key (key-id or user-id), return the respective PGPSignature which contains the algorithm preferences we are going to use.

      If we address a key via its user-id, we want to rely on the algorithm preferences in the user-id certification, while we would instead rely on those in the direct-key signature if we'd address the key by key-id.

      Returns:
      signature
