Detailed Description

An abstract base class for protocol-specific jobs.

To use a SpecialJob, first obtain an instance from the CryptoBackend implementation, connect progress() and result() signals to suitable slots and then start the job with a call to start(). This call might fail, in which case the SpecialJob instance will have schedules its own destruction with a call to QObject::deleteLater().

After result() is emitted, the SpecialJob will schedule its own destruction by calling QObject::deleteLater().

Parameters are set using the Qt property system. More general, or constructor parameters are given in the call to Kleo::CryptoBackend::Protocol::specialJob().

The result is made available through the result signal, and through the read-only result property, the latter of which needs to be defined in each SpecialJob subclass.
