EnvelopedCms.ContentEncryptionAlgorithm Property

Definition

Namespace:

System.Security.Cryptography.Pkcs

Assembly:

System.Security.Cryptography.Pkcs.dll

Source:

EnvelopedCms.cs

Gets the identifier of the symmetric encryption algorithm associated with this message.

public:
 property System::Security::Cryptography::Pkcs::AlgorithmIdentifier ^ ContentEncryptionAlgorithm { System::Security::Cryptography::Pkcs::AlgorithmIdentifier ^ get(); };

public System.Security.Cryptography.Pkcs.AlgorithmIdentifier ContentEncryptionAlgorithm { get; }

member this.ContentEncryptionAlgorithm : System.Security.Cryptography.Pkcs.AlgorithmIdentifier

Public ReadOnly Property ContentEncryptionAlgorithm As AlgorithmIdentifier

Property Value

AlgorithmIdentifier

The identifier of the symmetric encryption algorithm associated with this message.

Remarks

When the EnvelopedCms class is being used to to encrypt data, the value of this property indicates which symmetric encryption algorithm to use to encrypt the content of ContentInfo.

The value of this property is replaced during a call to Decode, which then represents the symmetric encryption algorithm which was used to encrypt the decoded message.
