MsgNamingResolveNameRequest RequestResolveName

type RequestResolveName := mkRequestResolveName@{identityName : IdentityName};

A RequestResolveName asks the Naming Engine which ExternalIdentitys are associated with a given IdentityName.

Arguments
identityName:
The name to resolve.

MsgNamingResolveNameResponse ResponseResolveName

type ResponseResolveName :=
  mkResponseResolveName@{
    externalIdentities : Set ExternalIdentity;
    err : Option String;
  };

A ResponseResolveName is returned in response to a RequestResolveName.

Arguments
externalIdentities:
A set of ExternalIdentitys associated with the IdentityName.
err:
An error message if the resolution failed.

MsgNamingSubmitNameEvidenceRequest RequestSubmitNameEvidence

type RequestSubmitNameEvidence :=
  mkRequestSubmitNameEvidence@{evidence : IdentityNameEvidence};

A RequestSubmitNameEvidence instructs the Naming Engine to store a new piece of IdentityNameEvidence.

Arguments
evidence:
The evidence supporting the association between an IdentityName and an ExternalIdentity.

MsgNamingSubmitNameEvidenceResponse ResponseSubmitNameEvidence

type ResponseSubmitNameEvidence :=
  mkResponseSubmitNameEvidence@{err : Option String};

A ResponseSubmitNameEvidence is sent in response to a RequestSubmitNameEvidence.

Arguments
err:
An error message if the submission failed.

MsgNamingQueryNameEvidenceRequest RequestQueryNameEvidence

type RequestQueryNameEvidence :=
  mkRequestQueryNameEvidence@{externalIdentity : ExternalIdentity};

A RequestQueryNameEvidence instructs the Naming Engine to return any known IdentityNames and IdentityNameEvidence associated with a specific ExternalIdentity.

Arguments
externalIdentity:
The identity for which to retrieve evidence.

MsgNamingQueryNameEvidenceResponse ResponseQueryNameEvidence

type ResponseQueryNameEvidence :=
  mkResponseQueryNameEvidence@{
    externalIdentity : ExternalIdentity;
    evidence : Set IdentityNameEvidence;
    err : Option String;
  };

A ResponseQueryNameEvidence provides the requested evidence.

Arguments
externalIdentity:
The ExternalIdentity associated with the returned evidence.
evidence:
A set of IdentityNameEvidence related to the identity.
err:
An error message if the query failed.
