Description

SigAlgId

The identifier for the signature algorithm (of type ALG_ID, as defined in WinCrypt.h) of the public key.

HashAlgId

The identifier for the hash algorithm (of type ALG_ID, as defined in WinCrypt.h) of the public key.

cbPublicKey

The length of the key in bytes.

PublicKey

A variable-length byte array that contains the key value in the format returned by the CryptoAPI.
