EncryptionProperty.Id Property

Definition

Namespace:

System.Security.Cryptography.Xml

Assembly:

System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.dll

Source:

EncryptionProperty.cs

Gets the ID of the current EncryptionProperty object.

C#

public string? Id { get; }

Property Value

String

The ID of the current EncryptionProperty object.

Examples

The following code example encrypts and decrypts an XML document. This code example creates an EncryptionProperty object that contains custom information about the EncryptedKey element, and adds the EncryptionProperty object to the EncryptionPropertyCollection collection of the EncryptedXml class. Finally, this code example displays information about the EncryptionProperty object and the EncryptionPropertyCollection collection.
