Sets the public key identifying the assembly.

public:
 void SetPublicKey(cli::array <System::Byte> ^ publicKey);

public void SetPublicKey (byte[] publicKey);

public void SetPublicKey (byte[]? publicKey);

member this.SetPublicKey : byte[] -> unit

Public Sub SetPublicKey (publicKey As Byte())

Parameters

publicKey: Byte[]

A byte array containing the public key of the assembly.

Examples

The following example emits a dynamic assembly and saves it to the current directory. When the assembly is created, the SetPublicKey method is used to give the assembly a public key. The GetPublicKey method is then used to retrieve the public key, which is displayed to the console.

Remarks

You must also use the SetPublicKeyToken method to provide a public key token. Otherwise, a SecurityException is thrown when the GetPublicKey method is called.
