Imports the public/private keypair from an ECPrivateKey structure, replacing the keys for this object.
public:
virtual void ImportECPrivateKey(ReadOnlySpan<System::Byte> source, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] int % bytesRead);public virtual void ImportECPrivateKey (ReadOnlySpan<byte> source, out int bytesRead);abstract member ImportECPrivateKey : ReadOnlySpan<byte> * int -> unit
override this.ImportECPrivateKey : ReadOnlySpan<byte> * int -> unitPublic Overridable Sub ImportECPrivateKey (source As ReadOnlySpan(Of Byte), ByRef bytesRead As Integer)Parameters
- source
- ReadOnlySpan<Byte>
The bytes of an ECPrivateKey structure in the ASN.1-BER encoding.
- bytesRead
- Int32
When this method returns, contains a value that indicates the number of bytes read from source. This parameter is treated as uninitialized.
Exceptions
The contents of source do not represent an ASN.1-BER-encoded PKCS#8 ECPrivateKey structure.
-or-
The key import failed.
Remarks
This method only supports the binary (BER/CER/DER) encoding of ECPrivateKey. If the value is Base64-encoded or in the PEM text format, the caller must Base64-decode the contents before calling this method.
