PvkPrivateKeyAcquireContextFromMemory function

  • Artikel

Important

This API is deprecated. Microsoft may remove this API in future releases.

 

The PvkPrivateKeyAcquireContextFromMemory function creates a temporary container in the cryptographic service provider (CSP) and loads a private key from memory into the container.

Note

This function has no associated header file or import library. To call this function, you must create a user-defined header file and use the LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress functions to dynamically link to Mssign32.dll.

 

Syntax

BOOL WINAPI PvkPrivateKeyAcquireContextFromMemory(
  _In_        LPCWSTR    pwszProvName,
  _In_        DWORD      dwProvType,
  _In_        BYTE       *pbData,
  _In_        DWORD      cbData,
  _In_        HWND       hwndOwner,
  _In_        LPCWSTR    pwszKeyName,
  _Inout_opt_ DWORD      *pdwKeySpec,
  _Out_       HCRYPTPROV *phCryptProv,
  _Out_       LPTSTR     *ppwszTmpContainer
);

Parameters

pwszProvName [in]

A pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the name of the CSP whose type is requested in dwProvType.

dwProvType [in]

A DWORD value for the CSP type. For more information about CSP types, see Cryptographic Provider Types.

pbData [in]

A pointer to a buffer to receive the context data. The caller must provide this resource.

cbData [in]

A DWORD value that specifies the size, in bytes, of the pbData buffer. The caller must provide this value.

hwndOwner [in]

If a password is required to decrypt the context data pointed to by the pbData parameter, this parameter is a handle to the parent of the dialog box; otherwise, it is NULL.

pwszKeyName [in]

A pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the name of the key to retrieve.

pdwKeySpec [in, out, optional]

A pointer to a DWORD value that specifies the type of key. Possible values include AT_KEYEXCHANGE or AT_SIGNATURE.

phCryptProv [out]

A pointer to a handle for the CSP.

ppwszTmpContainer [out]

The address of a pointer to a null-terminated string for the temporary container name. The PvkPrivateKeyAcquireContextFromMemory function provides the buffer for this string and initializes it. When calling PvkPrivateKeyAcquireContextFromMemory, the address should point to a NULL value.

Return value

Upon success, this function returns TRUE. The PvkPrivateKeyAcquireContextFromMemory function returns FALSE if it fails.
