Detailed Description

An abstract base class for asynchronous crypto operations.

During the operation, you might receive progress updates through the progress() signal as they arrive, but an implementation is free to not send progress information. You should show a busy progressbar until the first progress() signal is received.

The done() signal is emitted _before_ the result() signals of subclasses and should be used to hide and/or reset progress bars, not to learn of the end of the operation. Use the result() signals for that.

To cancel the operation, simply call slotCancel(). The result() signal of subclasses will still be emitted, though, and will carry the information that the operation was canceled.
