RSACryptoServiceProvider Constructor (Int32)
Initializes a new instance of the RSACryptoServiceProvider class with the specified key size.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- dwKeySize
-
Type:
System::Int32
The size of the key to use in bits.
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| CryptographicException | The cryptographic service provider (CSP) cannot be acquired. |
If no default key is found, a new key is created.
This constructor creates an Exchange key pair suitable to encrypt session keys so that they can be safely stored and exchanged with other users. The generated key corresponds to a key generated using the AT_KEYEXCHANGE value used in the unmanaged Microsoft Cryptographic API (CAPI).
The following code example creates a RSACryptoServiceProvider, generates a new key, and stores it in a key container.
using namespace System; using namespace System::Security::Cryptography; using namespace System::Text; array<Byte>^ RSAEncrypt( array<Byte>^DataToEncrypt, RSAParameters RSAKeyInfo, bool DoOAEPPadding ) { try { //Create a new instance of RSACryptoServiceProvider. RSACryptoServiceProvider^ RSAalg = gcnew RSACryptoServiceProvider; //Import the RSA Key information. This only needs //toinclude the public key information. RSAalg->ImportParameters( RSAKeyInfo ); //Encrypt the passed byte array and specify OAEP padding. //OAEP padding is only available on Microsoft Windows XP or //later. return RSAalg->Encrypt( DataToEncrypt, DoOAEPPadding ); } //Catch and display a CryptographicException //to the console. catch ( CryptographicException^ e ) { Console::WriteLine( e->Message ); return nullptr; } } array<Byte>^ RSADecrypt( array<Byte>^DataToDecrypt, RSAParameters RSAKeyInfo, bool DoOAEPPadding ) { try { //Create a new instance of RSACryptoServiceProvider. RSACryptoServiceProvider^ RSAalg = gcnew RSACryptoServiceProvider; //Import the RSA Key information. This needs //to include the private key information. RSAalg->ImportParameters( RSAKeyInfo ); //Decrypt the passed byte array and specify OAEP padding. //OAEP padding is only available on Microsoft Windows XP or //later. return RSAalg->Decrypt( DataToDecrypt, DoOAEPPadding ); } //Catch and display a CryptographicException //to the console. catch ( CryptographicException^ e ) { Console::WriteLine( e ); return nullptr; } } int main() { try { //Create a UnicodeEncoder to convert between byte array and string. UnicodeEncoding^ ByteConverter = gcnew UnicodeEncoding; //Create byte arrays to hold original, encrypted, and decrypted data. array<Byte>^dataToEncrypt = ByteConverter->GetBytes( "Data to Encrypt" ); array<Byte>^encryptedData; array<Byte>^decryptedData; //Create a new instance of RSACryptoServiceProvider to generate //public and private key data. Pass an integer specifying a key- //length of 2048. RSACryptoServiceProvider^ RSAalg = gcnew RSACryptoServiceProvider( 2048 ); //Display the key-legth to the console. Console::WriteLine( "A new key pair of legth {0} was created", RSAalg->KeySize ); //Pass the data to ENCRYPT, the public key information //(using RSACryptoServiceProvider.ExportParameters(false), //and a boolean flag specifying no OAEP padding. encryptedData = RSAEncrypt( dataToEncrypt, RSAalg->ExportParameters( false ), false ); //Pass the data to DECRYPT, the private key information //(using RSACryptoServiceProvider.ExportParameters(true), //and a boolean flag specifying no OAEP padding. decryptedData = RSADecrypt( encryptedData, RSAalg->ExportParameters( true ), false ); //Display the decrypted plaintext to the console. Console::WriteLine( "Decrypted plaintext: {0}", ByteConverter->GetString( decryptedData ) ); } catch ( ArgumentNullException^ ) { //Catch this exception in case the encryption did //not succeed. Console::WriteLine( "Encryption failed." ); } }
