TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider.CreateEncryptor Method
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.
Creates a symmetric encryptor object.
Overloads
CreateEncryptor() |
Creates a symmetric encryptor object with the current Key property and initialization vector (IV). |
CreateEncryptor(Byte[], Byte[]) |
Creates a symmetric TripleDES encryptor object with the specified key (Key) and initialization vector (IV). |
CreateEncryptor()
public:
override System::Security::Cryptography::ICryptoTransform ^ CreateEncryptor();
public override System.Security.Cryptography.ICryptoTransform CreateEncryptor ();
override this.CreateEncryptor : unit -> System.Security.Cryptography.ICryptoTransform
Public Overrides Function CreateEncryptor () As ICryptoTransform
Returns
A symmetric encryptor object.
Remarks
If the current Key property is null
, the GenerateKey method is called to create a new random Key. If the current IV property is null
, the GenerateIV method is called to create a new random IV.
Use the CreateDecryptor overload with the same signature to decrypt the result of this method.
Applies to
CreateEncryptor(Byte[], Byte[])
public:
override System::Security::Cryptography::ICryptoTransform ^ CreateEncryptor(cli::array <System::Byte> ^ rgbKey, cli::array <System::Byte> ^ rgbIV);
public override System.Security.Cryptography.ICryptoTransform CreateEncryptor (byte[] rgbKey, byte[]? rgbIV);
public override System.Security.Cryptography.ICryptoTransform CreateEncryptor (byte[] rgbKey, byte[] rgbIV);
override this.CreateEncryptor : byte[] * byte[] -> System.Security.Cryptography.ICryptoTransform
Public Overrides Function CreateEncryptor (rgbKey As Byte(), rgbIV As Byte()) As ICryptoTransform
Parameters
- rgbKey
- Byte[]
The secret key to use for the symmetric algorithm.
- rgbIV
- Byte[]
The initialization vector to use for the symmetric algorithm.
Note: The initialization vector must be 8 bytes long. If it is longer than 8 bytes, it is truncated and an exception is not thrown. Before you call CreateEncryptor(Byte[], Byte[]), check the length of the initialization vector and throw an exception if it is too long.
Returns
A symmetric TripleDES encryptor object.
Exceptions
The value of the Mode property is OFB.
-or-
The value of the Mode property is CFB and the value of the FeedbackSize property is not 8.
-or-
An invalid key size was used.
-or-
The algorithm key size was not available.
