3.1.9 NetscapeSPKI objects 
</H3>

<P>
NetscapeSPKI objects have the following methods:

<P>
<dl><dt><b><a name='l2h-102'><tt class='method'>b64_encode</tt></a></b>()
<dd>
Return a base64-encoded string representation of the object.
</dl>

<P>
<dl><dt><b><a name='l2h-103'><tt class='method'>get_pubkey</tt></a></b>()
<dd>
Return the public key of object.
</dl>

<P>
<dl><dt><b><a name='l2h-104'><tt class='method'>set_pubkey</tt></a></b>(<var>key</var>)
<dd>
Set the public key of the object to <var>key</var>.
</dl>

<P>
<dl><dt><b><a name='l2h-105'><tt class='method'>sign</tt></a></b>(<var>key, digest_name</var>)
<dd>
Sign the NetscapeSPKI object using the given <var>key</var> and
<var>digest_name</var>.  <var>digest_name</var> must be a string describing a digest
algorithm supported by OpenSSL (by EVP_get_digestbyname, specifically).  For
example, <tt class="constant">"md5"</tt> or <tt class="constant">"sha1"</tt>.
</dl>

<P>
<dl><dt><b><a name='l2h-106'><tt class='method'>verify</tt></a></b>(<var>key</var>)
<dd>
Verify the NetscapeSPKI object using the given <var>key</var>.
</dl>
