DESCryptoServiceProvider Methods
.NET Framework 1.1
The methods of the DESCryptoServiceProvider class are listed here. For a complete list of DESCryptoServiceProvider class members, see the DESCryptoServiceProvider Members topic.
Public Methods
 Clear (inherited from SymmetricAlgorithm) | Releases all resources used by the SymmetricAlgorithm. |
| CreateDecryptor | Overloaded. Overridden. Creates a symmetric Data Encryption Standard (DES) decryptor object. |
| CreateEncryptor | Overloaded. Overridden. Creates a symmetric Data Encryption Standard (DES) encryptor object. |
| Equals (inherited from Object) | Overloaded. Determines whether two Object instances are equal. |
| GenerateIV | Overridden. Generates a random initialization vector (IV) to be used for the algorithm. |
| GenerateKey | Overridden. Generates a random Key to be used for the algorithm. |
| GetHashCode (inherited from Object) | Serves as a hash function for a particular type, suitable for use in hashing algorithms and data structures like a hash table. |
| GetType (inherited from Object) | Gets the Type of the current instance. |
| ToString (inherited from Object) | Returns a String that represents the current Object. |
| ValidKeySize (inherited from SymmetricAlgorithm) | Determines whether the specified key size is valid for the current algorithm. |
Protected Methods
 Dispose (inherited from SymmetricAlgorithm) | Releases the unmanaged resources used by the SymmetricAlgorithm and optionally releases the managed resources. |
| Finalize (inherited from SymmetricAlgorithm) | Overridden. Releases the unmanaged resources used by the SymmetricAlgorithm.
In C# and C++, finalizers are expressed using destructor syntax. |
| MemberwiseClone (inherited from Object) | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. |
