Creates a new instance of the specified cryptographic object.
| CreateFromName(String) |
Creates a new instance of the specified cryptographic object. |
| CreateFromName(String, Object[]) |
Creates a new instance of the specified cryptographic object with the specified arguments. |

- name
- String
The simple name of the cryptographic object of which to create an instance.
Returns
A new instance of the specified cryptographic object.
Exceptions
The name parameter is null.
The algorithm described by the name parameter was used with Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) mode enabled, but is not FIPS compatible.
Examples
The following code example demonstrates how to call the CreateFromName method to create a new SHA1 provider. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the CryptoConfig class.
SHA1CryptoServiceProvider^ SHA1alg =
dynamic_cast<SHA1CryptoServiceProvider^>(
CryptoConfig::CreateFromName( L"SHA1" ));
// This example uses the SHA1 algorithm.
// Due to collision problems with SHA1, Microsoft recommends SHA256 or better.
SHA1CryptoServiceProvider SHA1alg =
(SHA1CryptoServiceProvider)CryptoConfig.CreateFromName("SHA1");
' This example uses the SHA1 algorithm.
' Due to collision problems with SHA1, Microsoft recommends SHA256 or better.
Dim SHA1alg As SHA1CryptoServiceProvider
SHA1alg = CType( _
cryptoConfig.CreateFromName("SHA1"), SHA1CryptoServiceProvider)

The simple name of the cryptographic object of which to create an instance.

The arguments used to create the specified cryptographic object.

A new instance of the specified cryptographic object.

Examples
The following code example demonstrates how to call the CreateFromName method to initialize a new RSA provider instance accessing the TestContainer key container. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the CryptoConfig class.
CspParameters^ parameters = gcnew CspParameters;
parameters->KeyContainerName = L"TestContainer";
array<Object^>^argsArray = gcnew array<Object^>(1){
parameters
};
// Instantiate the RSA provider instance accessing the TestContainer
// key container.
RSACryptoServiceProvider^ rsaProvider =
static_cast<RSACryptoServiceProvider^>(
CryptoConfig::CreateFromName( L"RSA", argsArray ));
CspParameters parameters = new CspParameters();
parameters.KeyContainerName = "TestContainer";
Object[] argsArray = new Object[] {parameters};
// Instantiate the RSA provider instance accessing the TestContainer
// key container.
RSA rsa = (RSA)
CryptoConfig.CreateFromName("RSA",argsArray);
Dim parameters As New CspParameters
parameters.KeyContainerName = "TestContainer"
Dim argsArray() = New Object() {parameters}
' Instantiate the RSA provider instance accessing the key container
' TestContainer.
Dim rsa As RSA = RSA.Create()
rsa = CType(cryptoConfig.CreateFromName( _
"RSA", argsArray), _
RSA)
