Methods

Name Description
Encode()

Gets ASN.1 encoded form of this PublicKeyInfo object.
GetDSAParameters()

Gets the DSA parameters for a DSA public key. May only be used for DSA public keys.
GetKeyAlgorithm()

Returns the key algorithm.
GetKeySize()

Returns the size of the key in bits.
GetRSAParameters()

Gets the RSA parameters for a RSA public key. May only be used for RSA public keys.
Load(Stream)

Loads a PKCS #8 public key from a stream. Upon successful decoding, information can be retrieved using PublicKeyInfo methods and properties.
Load(String)

Loads a PKCS #8 public key from a file. Upon successful decoding, information can be retrieved using PublicKeyInfo 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)

Saves the public key into the supplied stream in Base64-encoded PKCS #8 format.
Save(String)

Saves the public key into the supplied stream in Base64-encoded PKCS #8 format.
ToBytes()

Gets the raw form of the public key.
