Functions

importAttachment abstract fun importAttachment(jar: InputStream): SecureHash

openAttachment abstract fun openAttachment(id: SecureHash): Attachment?

Returns a handle to a locally stored attachment, or null if its not known. The handle can be used to open a stream for the data, which will be a zip/jar file.
