Now users can sort peers into groups in the friend list, and attribute flags and parent groups to the directories in the share manager. Flags are B-B-N, meaning in order: - browsable for peers in the parent groups - browsable for everyone - network wide for everyone Backward compatibility makes previously BN flags been interpreted as -BN, meaning browsable/network wide for everyone. Be careful with this new feature. It has been tested, but it's a bit early to rely on it for highly sensitive data. The merge also includes a significant improvement of the naming of flags with incompatible types which should sort out some existing bugs as well, since inconsistencies in flag usage have been found during the process. git-svn-id: http://svn.code.sf.net/p/retroshare/code/trunk@5787 b45a01b8-16f6-495d-af2f-9b41ad6348cc
To use this branch:
chekcout the last version of openpgp SDK:
# svn co svn://openpgp.nominet.org.uk/openpgpsdk/tags/openpgpsdk-0.9 openpgpsdk
# cd openpgpsdk
# ./configure --without-idea
# make
For the moment, the compilation is not workign on ubuntu
Work to do
==========
Put a 'x' when done. 1,2,3 means started/ongoing/almost finished.
Compilation
00 [1] make sure the library compiles on linux
01 [ ] make sure the library compiles on windows
Project
02 [1] determine what's missing in OpenPGP-SDK
03 [3] make a separate layer in RS to handle PGP. AuthPGP is too close to libretroshare.
04 [1] write the new AuthGPG class
05 [ ] consider removing thread behaviour of AuthGPG
06 [ ] remove callback system and services from AuthGPG, since it's not useful anymore
07 [ ] make all RS use GPGIdType isntead of std::string.
Notes
=====
Questions to answer:
- do we rely on updates from openPGP-sdk ? Probably not. This code seems frozen.
- do we need an abstract layer for PGP handling in RS ?
- what new functionalities do we need in RS ?
* pgp keyring sharing/import/export
* identity import/export
Code struture
- replace current AuthGPG (virtual class) by a class named GPGHandler,
that is responsible for signing, checking signatures, encrypting etc.
- add a specific 8-bytes type for GPG Ids. Could be a uint64_t, or a
uchar[8]
