A GckModule object holds a loaded PKCS11 module. A PKCS11 module is a shared library.
You can load and initialize a PKCS11 module with the gck_module_initialize() call. If you already
have a loaded and initialized module that you'd like to use with the various gck functions, then
you can use gck_module_new().
GckModule* gck_module_new (CK_FUNCTION_LIST_PTR funcs,guint reserved_options);
Create a GckModule representing a PKCS11 module. It is assumed that this the module is already initialized. In addition it will not be finalized when complete.
| 
 | Initialized PKCS11 function list pointer | 
| 
 | |
| Returns : | The new PKCS11 module. | 
GckModule* gck_module_initialize (const gchar *path,gpointer reserved,guint reserved_options,GError **err);
Load and initialize a PKCS11 module represented by a GckModule object.
| 
 | The file system path to the PKCS11 module to load. | 
| 
 | Extra arguments for the PKCS11 module, should usually be NULL. | 
| 
 | No options are currently available. | 
| 
 | A location to store an error resulting from a failed load. | 
| Returns : | The loaded PKCS11 module or NULL if failed. | 
gboolean gck_module_equal (gconstpointer module1,gconstpointer module2);
Checks equality of two modules. Two GckModule objects can point to the same underlying PKCS11 module.
| 
 | A pointer to the first GckModule | 
| 
 | A pointer to the second GckModule | 
| Returns : | TRUE if module1 and module2 are equal. FALSE if either is not a GckModule. | 
guint               gck_module_hash                     (gconstpointer module);
Create a hash value for the GckModule.
This function is intended for easily hashing a GckModule to add to a GHashTable or similar data structure.
| 
 | A pointer to a GckModule | 
| Returns : | An integer that can be used as a hash value, or 0 if invalid. | 
const gchar*        gck_module_get_path                 (GckModule *self);
Get the file path of this module. This may not be an absolute path, and
usually reflects the path passed to gck_module_initialize().
| 
 | The module for which to get the path. | 
| Returns : | The path, do not modify or free this value. | 
CK_FUNCTION_LIST_PTR  gck_module_get_functions          (GckModule *self);
Get the PKCS11 function list for the module.
| 
 | The module for which to get the function list. | 
| Returns : | The function list, do not modify this structure. | 
GckModuleInfo*      gck_module_get_info                 (GckModule *self);
Get the info about a PKCS11 module.
| 
 | The module to get info for. | 
| Returns : | The module info. Release this with gck_module_info_free(). | 
GList* gck_module_get_slots (GckModule *self,gboolean token_present);
Get the GckSlot objects for a given module.
| 
 | The module for which to get the slots. | 
| 
 | Whether to limit only to slots with a token present. | 
| Returns : | The possibly empty list of slots. Release this with gck_list_unref_free(). | 
typedef struct {
	guint8 pkcs11_version_major;

} GckModuleInfo;
Holds information about the PKCS#11 module.
This structure corresponds to CK_MODULE_INFO in the PKCS11 standard. The strings are NULL terminated for easier use.
Use gck_module_info_free() to release this structure when done with it.
| guint8  | The major version of the module. | 
| guint8  | The minor version of the module. | 
| gchar * | The module manufacturer. | 
| gulong  | The module PKCS#11 flags. | 
| gchar * | The module description. | 
| guint8  | The major version of the library. | 
| guint8  | The minor version of the library. | 
void                gck_module_info_free                (GckModuleInfo *module_info);
Free a GckModuleInfo structure.
| 
 | The module info to free, or NULL. | 
"functions" property"functions" gpointer : Read / Write / Construct Only
The raw PKCS#11 function list for the module.
This points to a CK_FUNCTION_LIST structure.
"path" property"path" gchar* : Read / Write / Construct Only
The PKCS#11 module file path.
This may be set to NULL if this object was created from an already
initialized module via the gck_module_new() function.
Default value: NULL
"authenticate-object" signalgboolean user_function (GckModule *module, GckObject *object, gchar *label, gpointer password, gpointer user_data) : Run Last
This signal is emitted when a password is needed to authenticate a PKCS#11 object like a key. If the module prompts for passwords itself, then this signal will not be emitted.
| 
 | The module. | 
| 
 | The object to be authenticated. | 
| 
 | A displayable label which describes the object. | 
| 
 | A gchar** where a password should be returned. | 
| 
 | user data set when the signal handler was connected. | 
| Returns : | FALSE if the user cancelled, TRUE if we should proceed. | 
"authenticate-slot" signalgboolean user_function (GckModule *module, GckSlot *slot, gchar *string, gpointer password, gpointer user_data) : Run Last
This signal is emitted when a password is needed to authenticate a PKCS#11 slot. If the module prompts for passwords itself, then this signal will not be emitted.
| 
 | The module | 
| 
 | The slot to be authenticated. | 
| 
 | A displayable label which describes the object. | 
| 
 | A gchar** where a password should be returned. | 
| 
 | user data set when the signal handler was connected. | 
| Returns : | FALSE if the user cancelled, TRUE if we should proceed. |
