The following code example shows how to open a Company.keys file (produced by running the Strong Name Tool (Sn.exe) with the –k switch), read the public key from the file, and display the key in the console window.
Imports System.Reflection Imports System.IO Module Module1 Sub Main() ' Open a file that contains a public key value. The line below ' assumes that the Strong Name tool (SN.exe) was executed from ' a command prompt as follows: ' SN.exe -k C:\Company.keys Dim fs As FileStream = File.Open("C:\Company.keys", FileMode.Open) ' Construct a StrongNameKeyPair object. This object should obtain ' the public key from the Company.keys file. Dim k As Reflection.StrongNameKeyPair = _ New Reflection.StrongNameKeyPair(fs) ' Display the bytes that make up the public key. Console.WriteLine(BitConverter.ToString(k.PublicKey)) ' Close the file. fs.Close() End Sub End Module ' Output will vary by user.
