CngProvider(String) Constructor
Definition
Important
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.
Initializes a new instance of the CngProvider class.
public:
CngProvider(System::String ^ provider);public CngProvider (string provider);new System.Security.Cryptography.CngProvider : string -> System.Security.Cryptography.CngProviderPublic Sub New (provider As String)Parameters
- provider
- String
The name of the key storage provider (KSP) to initialize.
Exceptions
The provider parameter is null.
The provider parameter length is 0 (zero).
Remarks
Instances of the CngProvider class internally maintain the provider name specified by the provider parameter.
The primary purpose of this constructor is to provide a method for creating CngProvider objects for KSPs that are not represented by the static properties of the CngProvider class. This capacity enables future .NET Framework releases, service packs, and third-party developers to add new providers, which can be accessed just like the providers that are currently available.
