void ndn::security::v2::CertificateStorage::loadAnchor ( const std::string &  groupId,
Certificate &&  cert 
)
protected

load static trust anchor.

Static trust anchors are permanently associated with the validator and never expire.

Parameters
groupIdCertificate group id.
certCertificate to load as a trust anchor.

void ndn::security::v2::CertificateStorage::loadAnchor ( const std::string &  groupId,
const std::string &  certfilePath,
time::nanoseconds  refreshPeriod,
bool  isDir = false 
)
protected

load dynamic trust anchors.

Dynamic trust anchors are associated with the validator for as long as the underlying trust anchor file (set of files) exist(s).

Parameters
groupIdCertificate group id, must not be empty.
certfilePathSpecifies the path to load the trust anchors.
refreshPeriodRefresh period for the trust anchors, must be positive.
isDirTells whether the path is a directory or a single file.
