Remarks

You can use KeyInfoClause objects to build a KeyInfo object for a specific digital signature or encrypted XML document. KeyInfo allows recipients of XML digital signatures and encrypted XML documents to determine which signing method and key values should be used for validation and decryption.

For more information about the KeyInfo element and its subelements, see the XMLDSIG specification or the XML encryption specification, which are available on the W3C website.

Constructors

Initializes a new instance of KeyInfoClause.

Methods

Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
GetXml()	When overridden in a derived class, returns an XML representation of the KeyInfoClause.
LoadXml(XmlElement)	When overridden in a derived class, parses the input XmlElement and configures the internal state of the KeyInfoClause to match.
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
