The following code example uses the KeyInfo object when signing a resource represented by a Universal Resource Identifier (URI). This example saves the signature in a new file.

// using a detached signature. It then verifies  
// the signed XML.

   // Get the XML representation of the signature and save
   // it to an XmlElement object.

Remarks

The KeyInfo class represents key information in XML digital signing and encryption.

The KeyInfo class enables you to imbed key-related information intended to help identify the key necessary for validating or decrypting the XML document. Multiple types of key-related information can be included within a single KeyInfo; each type of key-related information has an associated class derived from KeyInfoClause.

For more information about the <KeyInfo> element, see the XMLDSIG specification or the XML encryption specification, which are available on the W3C website.

Constructors

KeyInfo()

Initializes a new instance of the KeyInfo class.

Properties

Count

Gets the number of KeyInfoClause objects contained in the KeyInfo object.

Id

Gets or sets the key information identity.

Methods

AddClause(KeyInfoClause)

Adds a KeyInfoClause that represents a particular type of KeyInfo information to the KeyInfo object.

Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

(Inherited from Object)
GetEnumerator()

Returns an enumerator of the KeyInfoClause objects in the KeyInfo object.

GetEnumerator(Type)

Returns an enumerator of the KeyInfoClause objects of the specified type in the KeyInfo object.

GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
GetXml()

Returns the XML representation of the KeyInfo object.

LoadXml(XmlElement)

Loads a KeyInfo state from an XML element.

MemberwiseClone()

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

(Inherited from Object)
ToString()

Returns a string that represents the current object.

(Inherited from Object)

Extension Methods

Cast<TResult>(IEnumerable)

Casts the elements of an IEnumerable to the specified type.

OfType<TResult>(IEnumerable)
