Remarks

The WSSecurity.EncodingTypes class is used by WSE when it serializes binary security tokens, such as KerberosToken and X509SecurityToken . When a binary security token is serialized into XML, a <BinarySecurityToken> element is created. The <BinarySecurityToken> element has an EncodingType attribute, which specifies the encoding format of the binary data within the <BinarySecurityToken> element. Valid values for that EncodingType attribute are represented by this class.

To set the value of the EncodingType attribute for a binary security token, set the BinarySecurityToken.EncodingType property. The only valid value for the property is WSSecurity.EncodingTypes.Base64Encoding .
