This is the method that you
use to decrypt PGP encrypted data (cipher text). This method is
complementary to the PGPEncryptString method.
Description
Decrypts PGP encrypted data (the
cipher text).
Syntax
x = object.PGPDecryptString
The syntax of the PGPDecryptString
method has these parts:
Part
Description
object
A
Cryptocx v7 control.
x
A
string that becomes the plain text after the method has run.
Remarks
If for whatever reason the method
fails to complete, the method will return some text stating exactly
what has gone wrong.
You need to specify the KeyFolder
property of the control. This should be set to the directory that
contains the keyring containing the key to use. Cryptocx
automatically searches the specified folder for a valid key.
You must also specify the Password
for the key that will decrypt the given PGP compatible encrypted
text.
You should then specify the text to
decrypt through the InputText
property.
Returns
String
Example
Sample Visual Basic
Code to decrypt some PGP encrypted text:
Where Cryptocx1 is an instance of a Cryptocx Control.
