Gets the specified asymmetric cryptographic algorithm.
public:
override System::Security::Cryptography::AsymmetricAlgorithm ^ GetAsymmetricAlgorithm(System::String ^ algorithm, bool requiresPrivateKey);
public override System.Security.Cryptography.AsymmetricAlgorithm GetAsymmetricAlgorithm (string algorithm, bool requiresPrivateKey);
override this.GetAsymmetricAlgorithm : string * bool -> System.Security.Cryptography.AsymmetricAlgorithm
Public Overrides Function GetAsymmetricAlgorithm (algorithm As String, requiresPrivateKey As Boolean) As AsymmetricAlgorithm
Parameters
- algorithm
- String
The asymmetric algorithm to create.
- requiresPrivateKey
- Boolean
true
when a private key is required to create the algorithm; otherwise, false
.
Returns
An AsymmetricAlgorithm that represents the specified asymmetric cryptographic algorithm.
Exceptions
requiresPrivateKey
is true
and a private key is not available.
