Public Class DSASignatureDeformatter _
	Inherits AsymmetricSignatureDeformatter

The DSASignatureDeformatter type exposes the following members.

  NameDescription
Public methodDSASignatureDeformatterInitializes a new instance of the DSASignatureDeformatter class.
Public methodDSASignatureDeformatter(AsymmetricAlgorithm)Initializes a new instance of the DSASignatureDeformatter class with the specified key.

  NameDescription
Public methodEquals(Object)Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodFinalizeAllows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetHashCodeServes as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetTypeGets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodMemberwiseCloneCreates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodSetHashAlgorithmSpecifies the hash algorithm for the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) signature deformatter. (Overrides AsymmetricSignatureDeformatter.SetHashAlgorithm(String).)
Public methodSetKeySpecifies the key to be used for the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) signature deformatter. (Overrides AsymmetricSignatureDeformatter.SetKey(AsymmetricAlgorithm).)
Public methodToStringReturns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodVerifySignature(Byte(), Byte())Verifies the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) signature on the data. (Overrides AsymmetricSignatureDeformatter.VerifySignature(Byte(), Byte()).)
Public methodVerifySignature(HashAlgorithm, Byte())Verifies the signature from the specified hash value. (Inherited from AsymmetricSignatureDeformatter.)
