SetPassword method
Determines if devP2P traffic is encrypted.
Syntax
void devP2P.SetPassword(IntPtr Handle, int encryption, string password);
The SetPassword(Handle,encryption,password) syntax has these parts:
| Handle | Reference to the devP2P instance. |
| encryption | Encryptions value, defines encryption algorithm. |
| password | String with the password. Size depends on selected encryption algorithm. |
void SetPassword(Encryptions encryption, char *password);
The SetPassword(encryption,password) syntax has these parts:
| encryption | Encryptions value, defines encryption algorithm. |
| password | Byte array with the password. Size depends on selected encryption algorithm. |
Sub P2P_SetPassword(ByVal Handle As IntPtr, ByVal encryption As Integer, ByVal password As String)
The SetPassword(Handle,encryption,password) syntax has these parts:
| Handle | Reference to the devP2P instance. |
| encryption | Encryptions value, defines encryption algorithm. |
| password | String with the password. Size depends on selected encryption algorithm. |
Remarks
SetPassword method specifies devP2P to use some encryption algorithm and given password to encrypt all network traffic between two peers. Both sides must choose same encryption, and same passwords, in order for communication to be established.
Besides having secure connection, this also ensures 3rd party does not connect to your devP2P peer, since with wrong password it will not be able to establish connection in the first place.Platforms
