Top
  Name Description
Public method Dispose() Releases all resources used by the current instance of the ECDiffieHellman class. (Inherited from ECDiffieHellmanPublicKey.)
Protected method Dispose(Boolean) Releases the unmanaged resources used by the ECDiffieHellman class and optionally releases the managed resources. (Inherited from ECDiffieHellmanPublicKey.)
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 Static member FromByteArray Converts a byte array that contains a public key to a ECDiffieHellmanCngPublicKey object according to the specified format.
Public method Static member FromXmlString Converts an XML string to an ECDiffieHellmanCngPublicKey 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.)
Public method Import Converts the ECDiffieHellmanCngPublicKey object to a CngKey object.
Protected method MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method ToByteArray Serializes the ECDiffieHellmanPublicKey key BLOB to a byte array. (Inherited from ECDiffieHellmanPublicKey.)
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method ToXmlString Serializes the ECDiffieHellmanCngPublicKey public key to an XML string in RFC 4050 format. (Overrides ECDiffieHellmanPublicKey.ToXmlString().)
