PublicKey.Key Property

Definition

Caution

PublicKey.Key is obsolete. Use the appropriate method to get the public key, such as GetRSAPublicKey.

Gets an RSA derived object or a DSA derived object representing the public key.

public:
 property System::Security::Cryptography::AsymmetricAlgorithm ^ Key { System::Security::Cryptography::AsymmetricAlgorithm ^ get(); };
public System.Security.Cryptography.AsymmetricAlgorithm Key { get; }
[System.Obsolete("PublicKey.Key is obsolete. Use the appropriate method to get the public key, such as GetRSAPublicKey.", DiagnosticId="SYSLIB0027", UrlFormat="https://aka.ms/dotnet-warnings/{0}")]

Public ReadOnly Property Key As AsymmetricAlgorithm

Property Value

An AsymmetricAlgorithm object representing the public key.

Attributes

Exceptions

The key algorithm is not supported.

Examples

The following code example opens the current user certificate store, selects only active certificates, and then allows the user to select one or more certificates. The example then writes certificate information to the console.

Remarks

This property returns the public key. Both RSA and DSA keys are supported. Call this property to obtain a certificate's public key. Repeated calls to this property will return the same key.
