Represents a private key.
Syntax
public class PrivateKeyInfo : PkcsBaseInherited Members
Constructors
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| PrivateKeyInfo() | Creates a new instance of PrivateKeyInfo. Use the Load(Stream, String) method to load a private key. |
| PrivateKeyInfo(DSAParameters) | Creates a new instance of PrivateKeyInfo based on the specified DSA parameters. |
| PrivateKeyInfo(RSAParameters) | Creates a new instance of PrivateKeyInfo based on the specified RSA parameters. |
Properties
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Comment | Gets or ets the key comment. The comment is used while saving in some formats. |
| KeyAlgorithm | Gets the key algorithm identifier. |
Methods
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Encode() | Gets ASN.1 encoded form of this PrivateKeyInfo object. |
| Generate(KeyAlgorithm) | Generates a private key using the specified algorithm and default key size. |
| Generate(KeyAlgorithm, Int32) | Generates a private key using the specified algorithm and key size. |
| GetDSAParameters() | Gets the DSA parameters for a DSA key. May only be used for DSA private keys. |
| GetPublicKey() | Gets a public key corresponding to the private key. |
| GetRSAParameters() | Gets the RSA parameters for a RSA key. May only be used for RSA private keys. |
| Load(Stream, String) | Loads a PKCS #8, PuTTY or SSLeay (OpenSSL/OpenSSH) format private key from a stream. Upon successful decoding, information can be retrieved using PrivateKeyInfo methods and properties. |
| Load(String, String) | Loads a PKCS #8, PuTTY or SSLeay (OpenSSL/OpenSSH) format private key from a stream. Upon successful decoding, information can be retrieved using PrivateKeyInfo methods and properties. |
| LoadSignedOrEnvelopedData(Stream, ICertificateFinder, Boolean) | Loads a CMS/PKCS #7 signed or enveloped message from a stream. Returns an instance of SignedData for signed message, EnvelopedData for enveloped message, or null for methods and properties. Inherited from PkcsBase. |
| Save(Stream, String, ObjectIdentifier) | Saves the private key into the supplied stream in Base64-encoded PKCS #8 format. |
| Save(Stream, String, PrivateKeyFormat) | Saves the private key into the supplied stream in the specified format. |
| Save(String, String, PrivateKeyFormat) | Saves the private key into the supplied stream in the specified format. |
| ToBytes() | Gets the raw form of the private key. |
