ObjectIdPublicKeyFlags enumeration

The ObjectIdPublicKeyFlags enumeration type specifies whether a public key algorithm is used for signing or for encryption. Some algorithms, such as RSA, can be used for both purposes. This enumeration is used by the InitializeFromAlgorithmName method on the IObjectId interface to narrow and disambiguate the algorithm search.

Syntax

C++
Copy 

typedef enum  { 
  XCN_CRYPT_OID_INFO_PUBKEY_ANY               = 0,
  XCN_CRYPT_OID_INFO_PUBKEY_SIGN_KEY_FLAG     = 0x80000000,
  XCN_CRYPT_OID_INFO_PUBKEY_ENCRYPT_KEY_FLAG  = 0x40000000
} ObjectIdPublicKeyFlags;

Constants

XCN_CRYPT_OID_INFO_PUBKEY_ANY

The algorithm can be used for signing or encryption.

XCN_CRYPT_OID_INFO_PUBKEY_SIGN_KEY_FLAG

The algorithm is used for signing.

XCN_CRYPT_OID_INFO_PUBKEY_ENCRYPT_KEY_FLAG

The algorithm is used for encryption.
