AsnEncodedDataCollection Class

Represents a collection of AsnEncodedData objects. This class cannot be inherited.

System.Object
  System.Security.Cryptography.AsnEncodedDataCollection

Namespace:  System.Security.Cryptography
Assembly:  System (in System.dll)
public sealed class AsnEncodedDataCollection : ICollection, 
	IEnumerable

The AsnEncodedDataCollection type exposes the following members.

  Name Description
Public method AsnEncodedDataCollection() Initializes a new instance of the AsnEncodedDataCollection class.
Public method AsnEncodedDataCollection(AsnEncodedData) Initializes a new instance of the AsnEncodedDataCollection class and adds an AsnEncodedData object to the collection.
Top
  Name Description
Public property Count Gets the number of AsnEncodedData objects in a collection.
Public property IsSynchronized Gets a value that indicates whether access to the AsnEncodedDataCollection object is thread safe.
Public property Item Gets an AsnEncodedData object from the AsnEncodedDataCollection object.
Public property SyncRoot Gets an object that can be used to synchronize access to the AsnEncodedDataCollection object.

  Name Description
Public method Add Adds an AsnEncodedData object to the AsnEncodedDataCollection object.
Public method CopyTo Copies the AsnEncodedDataCollection object into an array.
Public method Equals(Object) Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetEnumerator Returns an AsnEncodedDataEnumerator object that can be used to navigate the AsnEncodedDataCollection object.
Public method GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method Remove Removes an AsnEncodedData object from the AsnEncodedDataCollection object.
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

  Name Description
Public Extension Method AsParallel Enables parallelization of a query. (Defined by ParallelEnumerable.)
Public Extension Method AsQueryable Converts an IEnumerable to an IQueryable. (Defined by Queryable.)
Public Extension Method Cast<TResult> Casts the elements of an IEnumerable to the specified type. (Defined by Enumerable.)
Public Extension Method OfType<TResult> Filters the elements of an IEnumerable based on a specified type. (Defined by Enumerable.)

  Name Description
Explicit interface implemetation Private method ICollection.CopyTo Copies the AsnEncodedDataCollection object into an array.
Explicit interface implemetation Private method IEnumerable.GetEnumerator Returns an AsnEncodedDataEnumerator object that can be used to navigate the AsnEncodedDataCollection object.

This class implements the ICollection interface.

The following code example shows how to use the AsnEncodedDataCollection class.


using System;
using System.Security.Cryptography;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;

class AsnEncodedDataSample
{
	static void Main()
	{		
		//The following example demonstrates the usage the AsnEncodedData classes.
		// Asn encoded data is read from the extensions of an X509 certificate.
		try
		{
			// Open the certificate store.
			X509Store store = new X509Store("MY", StoreLocation.CurrentUser);
			store.Open(OpenFlags.ReadOnly | OpenFlags.OpenExistingOnly);
			X509Certificate2Collection collection = (X509Certificate2Collection)store.Certificates;
			X509Certificate2Collection fcollection = (X509Certificate2Collection)collection.Find(X509FindType.FindByTimeValid, DateTime.Now, false);
			// Select one or more certificates to display extensions information.
			X509Certificate2Collection scollection = X509Certificate2UI.SelectFromCollection(fcollection, "Certificate Select", "Select certificates from the following list to get extension information on that certificate", X509SelectionFlag.MultiSelection);

			// Create a new AsnEncodedDataCollection object.
			AsnEncodedDataCollection asncoll = new AsnEncodedDataCollection();
			for (int i = 0; i < scollection.Count; i++)
			{
				// Display certificate information.
				Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Red;
				Console.WriteLine("Certificate name: {0}", scollection[i].GetName());
				Console.ResetColor();
				// Display extensions information.
				foreach (X509Extension extension in scollection[i].Extensions)
				{
					// Create an AsnEncodedData object using the extensions information.
					AsnEncodedData asndata = new AsnEncodedData(extension.Oid, extension.RawData);
					Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Green;
					Console.WriteLine("Extension type: {0}", extension.Oid.FriendlyName);
					Console.WriteLine("Oid value: {0}",asndata.Oid.Value);
					Console.WriteLine("Raw data length: {0} {1}", asndata.RawData.Length, Environment.NewLine);
					Console.ResetColor();
					Console.WriteLine(asndata.Format(true));
					Console.WriteLine(Environment.NewLine);
					// Add the AsnEncodedData object to the AsnEncodedDataCollection object.
					asncoll.Add(asndata);
				}
				Console.WriteLine(Environment.NewLine);
			}
			Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Red;
			Console.WriteLine("Number of AsnEncodedData items in the collection: {0} {1}", asncoll.Count, Environment.NewLine);
			Console.ResetColor();

			store.Close();
			//Create an enumerator for moving through the collection.
			AsnEncodedDataEnumerator asne = asncoll.GetEnumerator();
			//You must execute a MoveNext() to get to the first item in the collection.
			asne.MoveNext();
			// Write out AsnEncodedData in the collection.
			Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Blue;
			Console.WriteLine("First AsnEncodedData in the collection: {0}", asne.Current.Format(true));
			Console.ResetColor();

			asne.MoveNext();
			Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.DarkBlue;
			Console.WriteLine("Second AsnEncodedData in the collection: {0}", asne.Current.Format(true));
			Console.ResetColor();
			//Return index in the collection to the beginning.
			asne.Reset();
		}
		catch (CryptographicException)
		{
			Console.WriteLine("Information could not be written out for this certificate.");
		}
	}
}
