EncryptedXml.DecryptDocument Method

Definition

Decrypts all <EncryptedData> elements of the XML document that were specified during initialization of the EncryptedXml class.

public:
 void DecryptDocument();
public void DecryptDocument ();
member this.DecryptDocument : unit -> unit
Public Sub DecryptDocument ()

Exceptions

The cryptographic key used to decrypt the document was not found.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to encrypt an XML document using an asymmetric key. This example creates a symmetric session key to encrypt the document and then uses the asymmetric key to embed an encrypted version of the session key into the XML document.

Remarks

The DecryptDocument method decrypts all <EncryptedData> elements of the XML document loaded during initialization. After you call this method, all <EncryptedData> elements in the document are replaced with plain text versions.

The DecryptDocument method decrypts only top-level <EncryptedData> elements. If you need to decrypt a super-encrypted document (a document that is encrypted more than once), you must call the DecryptDocument method repeatedly until all the <EncryptedData> elements have been decrypted.

Note

The DecryptDocument method decrypts only valid XML data. To decrypt arbitrary data, use the DecryptData method.

To use XML Encryption with X.509 certificates, you must have the Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider installed and the X.509 certificate must use the Enhanced Provider. If you do not have the Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider installed or the X.509 certificate does not use the Enhanced Provider, a CryptographicException with an "Unknown Error" will be thrown when you decrypt an XML document.
