title: Verifying a GPG signature using a specific public key with GPGME in C / C++
body: <p>I have a C++ program that needs to verify the signature of a file that has been signed with GPG using a specific private key. Using GPGME I have successfully written a program that verifies that the given file has been properly signed with a private key corresponding to one of the public keys in the GPG keyring.</p>
  
  <p>Now I would like my program to verify the file using a public key that is hard coded inside my program instead of just verifying the signature using one of the public keys available in the GPG keyring. </p>
  
  <p>I want my program (that will be installed on someone else's computer) to be able to verify that the file really comes from me. If it does the verify operation by using the list of public key in the GPG keyring of the user's computer, it seems like that user could just resign my file with his own private key and my program would validate the file's signature even though I didn't sign it.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way of achieving this with GPGME? Any help is greatly appreciated.</p>
