The DSASignatureFormatter type exposes the following members.
Constructors
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
DSASignatureFormatter | Initializes a new instance of the DSASignatureFormatter class. |
|
DSASignatureFormatter(AsymmetricAlgorithm) | Initializes a new instance of the DSASignatureFormatter class with the specified key. |
Methods
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
CreateSignature(Byte()) | Creates the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) PKCS #1 signature for the specified data. (Overrides AsymmetricSignatureFormatter.CreateSignature(Byte()).) |
|
CreateSignature(HashAlgorithm) | Creates the signature from the specified hash value. (Inherited from AsymmetricSignatureFormatter.) |
|
Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
SetHashAlgorithm | Specifies the hash algorithm for the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) signature formatter. (Overrides AsymmetricSignatureFormatter.SetHashAlgorithm(String).) |
|
SetKey | Specifies the key to be used for the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) signature formatter. (Overrides AsymmetricSignatureFormatter.SetKey(AsymmetricAlgorithm).) |
|
ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
