AsymmetricAlgorithm Constructor

Definition

Initializes a new instance of the AsymmetricAlgorithm class.

C#
protected AsymmetricAlgorithm();

Exceptions

The implementation of the derived class is not valid.

Remarks

You cannot create an instance of an abstract class. Application code creates a new instance of a derived class. The RSACryptoServiceProvider and DSACryptoServiceProvider classes are the only currently supported implementations.
