MD5.Create Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.Security.Cryptography

Assembly:

System.Security.Cryptography.dll

Allows specific implementations of this abstract class to be created.

Overloads

Create()	Creates an instance of the default implementation of the MD5 hash algorithm.
Create(String)	Obsolete. Creates an instance of the specified implementation of the MD5 hash algorithm.

Create()

Source:

MD5.cs

Creates an instance of the default implementation of the MD5 hash algorithm.

public:
 static System::Security::Cryptography::MD5 ^ Create();

[System.Runtime.Versioning.UnsupportedOSPlatform("browser")]
public static System.Security.Cryptography.MD5 Create ();

[<System.Runtime.Versioning.UnsupportedOSPlatform("browser")>]
static member Create : unit -> System.Security.Cryptography.MD5

Public Shared Function Create () As MD5

Returns

MD5

A new instance of the MD5 hash algorithm.

Attributes

UnsupportedOSPlatformAttribute

Exceptions

TargetInvocationException

The algorithm was used with Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) mode enabled, but is not FIPS compatible.

Create(String)

Source:

MD5.cs

Caution

Cryptographic factory methods accepting an algorithm name are obsolete. Use the parameterless Create factory method on the algorithm type instead.

Creates an instance of the specified implementation of the MD5 hash algorithm.

public:
 static System::Security::Cryptography::MD5 ^ Create(System::String ^ algName);

[System.Obsolete("Cryptographic factory methods accepting an algorithm name are obsolete. Use the parameterless Create factory method on the algorithm type instead.", DiagnosticId="SYSLIB0045", UrlFormat="https://aka.ms/dotnet-warnings/{0}")]
public static System.Security.Cryptography.MD5? Create (string algName);

static member Create : string -> System.Security.Cryptography.MD5

Public Shared Function Create (algName As String) As MD5

Parameters

algName

String

The name of the specific implementation of MD5 to use.

Returns

MD5

A new instance of the specified implementation of MD5.

Attributes

ObsoleteAttribute

Exceptions

TargetInvocationException

The algorithm described by the algName parameter was used with Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) mode enabled, but is not FIPS compatible.

Remarks

Possible values for algName are: System.Security.Cryptography.MD5, MD5, System.Security.Cryptography.MD5CryptoServiceProvider, and System.Security.Cryptography.MD5Managed.
