Definition

Creates the RSA PKCS #1 signature for the specified data.

public:
 override cli::array <System::Byte> ^ CreateSignature(cli::array <System::Byte> ^ rgbHash);
public override byte[] CreateSignature (byte[] rgbHash);
override this.CreateSignature : byte[] -> byte[]
Public Overrides Function CreateSignature (rgbHash As Byte()) As Byte()

Parameters

rgbHash
Byte[]

The data to be signed.

Returns

Byte[]

The digital signature for rgbHash.

Exceptions

The key is null.

-or-

The hash algorithm is null.

The rgbHash parameter is null.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to create a PKCS #1 version 1.5 signature.
