Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.

When overridden in a derived class, attempts to export the current key in the PKCS#8 PrivateKeyInfo format into a provided buffer.

public:
 virtual bool TryExportPkcs8PrivateKey(Span<System::Byte> destination, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] int % bytesWritten);

public virtual bool TryExportPkcs8PrivateKey(Span<byte> destination, out int bytesWritten);

abstract member TryExportPkcs8PrivateKey : Span<byte> * int -> bool
override this.TryExportPkcs8PrivateKey : Span<byte> * int -> bool

Public Overridable Function TryExportPkcs8PrivateKey (destination As Span(Of Byte), ByRef bytesWritten As Integer) As Boolean

Parameters

destination: Span<Byte>

The byte span to receive the PKCS#8 PrivateKeyInfo data.

bytesWritten: Int32

When this method returns, contains a value that indicates the number of bytes written to destination. This parameter is treated as uninitialized.

Returns

Boolean

true if destination is big enough to receive the output; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

CryptographicException

The key could not be exported.

NotImplementedException

A derived type has not overriden this member.

Remarks

Because algorithm-specific support is required to produce this data format, TryExportPkcs8PrivateKey throws a NotImplementedException by default.

Applies to

Product	Versions
.NET	Core 3.0, Core 3.1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
.NET Standard	2.1
