Detailed Description
A user identity for public-key authentication.
This object encapsulates a key pair and the signature algorithm. It is used by the Session objects on connecting to authenticate to the server.
The library contains a default implementation which is used by JSch.addIdentity() when used with non-Identity parameters.

- JSch.addIdentity(Identity, byte[])
- RFC 4252, section 7. Public Key Authentication Method: "publickey"

Member Function Documentation
| String com.jcraft.jsch.Identity.getAlgName | ( | ) |
Returns the name of the algorithm.
This will be sent together with the public key to the server for authorization purposes. The server will use the signature checking algorithm to check the signature.
Implemented in com.jcraft.jsch.IdentityFile.
Referenced by com.jcraft.jsch.UserAuthPublicKey.start().
| String com.jcraft.jsch.Identity.getName | ( | ) |
returns the name of this identity.
This is only used by the library for bookkeeping purposes (and allows the application to JSch#removeIdentity remove an identity), is not sent to the server.
Implemented in com.jcraft.jsch.IdentityFile.
Referenced by com.jcraft.jsch.UserAuthPublicKey.start(), and com.jcraft.jsch.ChannelAgentForwarding.write().
| byte [] com.jcraft.jsch.Identity.getPublicKeyBlob | ( | ) |
Returns the public key data.
This will be sent to the server, which then will check the key is authorized for this user (and whether the signature is done with the corresponding private key).
Implemented in com.jcraft.jsch.IdentityFile.
Referenced by com.jcraft.jsch.UserAuthPublicKey.start(), and com.jcraft.jsch.ChannelAgentForwarding.write().
