Namespace:   Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop
Assembly:  Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.11.0 (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.11.0.dll)

int CreateNewKeyWithNameAndSpecifiedSignatureAlgorithm(
	String^ pszAlgorithmID,
	unsigned int dwKeyLength,
	String^ szFile,
	String^ szPassword,
	String^ szSubjectName
)

Parameters

pszAlgorithmID
Type: System::String^

[in] The encryption algorithm identifier. If null is passed in for this parameter, the default SHA-256 algorithm is used.

dwKeyLength
Type: System::UInt32

[in] The length of the encryption key. If zero (0) is passed in for this parameter, the system default key length is used.

szFile
Type: System::String^

[in] The file in which to store the encryption key.

szPassword
Type: System::String^

[in] The password for the key being generated.

szSubjectName
Type: System::String^

[in] The name that goes after “CN=” in the certificate name.

Return Value

Type: System::Int32

If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.

This member only supports specifying those cryptographic algorithms for which CRYPT_OBJID_BLOB is zero (see the CRYPT_ALGORITHM_IDENTIFIER structure for more information).
