public int IterationCount { get; set; }
member this.IterationCount : int with get, set
Public Property IterationCount As Integer

Property Value

The number of iterations for the operation.

Exceptions

Examples

The following example shows how to use the IterationCount property to display the number of iterations used in the generation of the key. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the Rfc2898DeriveBytes class.

//The default iteration count is 1000 so the two methods use the same iteration count.
int myIterations = 1000;

try
{
   Rfc2898DeriveBytes ^ k1 = gcnew Rfc2898DeriveBytes( pwd1,salt1,myIterations );
   Rfc2898DeriveBytes ^ k2 = gcnew Rfc2898DeriveBytes( pwd1,salt1 );

   // Encrypt the data.
   Aes^ encAlg = Aes::Create();
   encAlg->Key = k1->GetBytes( 16 );
   MemoryStream^ encryptionStream = gcnew MemoryStream;
   CryptoStream^ encrypt = gcnew CryptoStream( encryptionStream,encAlg->CreateEncryptor(),CryptoStreamMode::Write );
   array<Byte>^utfD1 = (gcnew System::Text::UTF8Encoding( false ))->GetBytes( data1 );

   encrypt->Write( utfD1, 0, utfD1->Length );
   encrypt->FlushFinalBlock();
   encrypt->Close();
   array<Byte>^edata1 = encryptionStream->ToArray();
   k1->Reset();

   // Try to decrypt, thus showing it can be round-tripped.
   Aes^ decAlg = Aes::Create();
   decAlg->Key = k2->GetBytes( 16 );
   decAlg->IV = encAlg->IV;
   MemoryStream^ decryptionStreamBacking = gcnew MemoryStream;
   CryptoStream^ decrypt = gcnew CryptoStream( decryptionStreamBacking,decAlg->CreateDecryptor(),CryptoStreamMode::Write );

   decrypt->Write( edata1, 0, edata1->Length );
   decrypt->Flush();
   decrypt->Close();
   k2->Reset();

   String^ data2 = (gcnew UTF8Encoding( false ))->GetString( decryptionStreamBacking->ToArray() );
   if (  !data1->Equals( data2 ) )
   {
      Console::WriteLine( "Error: The two values are not equal." );
   }
   else
   {
      Console::WriteLine( "The two values are equal." );
      Console::WriteLine( "k1 iterations: {0}", k1->IterationCount );
      Console::WriteLine( "k2 iterations: {0}", k2->IterationCount );
   }

Remarks

Iteration count is the number of times an operation is performed. For this method, the count should be greater than zero. The minimum recommended number of iterations is 1000.
