Methods

	Name	Description
	Dispose()	Calls Dispose and SuppressFinalize (Overrides SignatureProvider.Dispose().)
	Dispose(Boolean)	Disposes of internal components. (Overrides SignatureProvider.Dispose(Boolean).)
	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Sign	Produces a signature over the 'input' using the SymmetricSecurityKey and 'algorithm' passed to SymmetricSignatureProvider. (Overrides SignatureProvider.Sign(Byte[]).)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Verify	Verifies that a signature created over the 'input' matches the signature. Using SymmetricSecurityKey and 'algorithm' passed to SymmetricSignatureProvider. (Overrides SignatureProvider.Verify(Byte[], Byte[]).)
