);
Parameters
wszFilePath
[in] The path to the portable executable (PE) file for the assembly.

[out] The size, in bytes, of the strong name token.

Remarks
A strong name token is the shortened form of a public key. The token is a 64-bit hash that is created from the public key used to sign the assembly. The token is a part of the strong name for the assembly, and can be read from the assembly metadata.
After the token is created, you should call the ICLRStrongName::StrongNameFreeBuffer method to release the allocated memory.
