VSProject2.GenerateKeyPairFiles Method

Generates a public/private key file used to form a strong name for the assembly.

Namespace:  VSLangProj80
Assembly:  VSLangProj80 (in VSLangProj80.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Sub GenerateKeyPairFiles ( _
    strPublicPrivateFile As String, _
    strPublicOnlyFile As String _
)
void GenerateKeyPairFiles(
    string strPublicPrivateFile,
    string strPublicOnlyFile
)
void GenerateKeyPairFiles(
    [InAttribute] String^ strPublicPrivateFile, 
    [InAttribute] String^ strPublicOnlyFile
)
abstract GenerateKeyPairFiles : 
        strPublicPrivateFile:string * 
        strPublicOnlyFile:string -> unit 
function GenerateKeyPairFiles(
    strPublicPrivateFile : String, 
    strPublicOnlyFile : String
)

Parameters

  • strPublicPrivateFile
    Type: System.String
    The name of the file to be generated.
  • strPublicOnlyFile
    Type: System.String
    If true, only the public key is generated.

Implements

VSProject.GenerateKeyPairFiles(String, String)

Remarks

A strong name consists of the assembly's identity — its simple text name, version number, and culture information (if provided) — plus a public key and a digital signature. The public/private key pair, used to create the digital signature, may be stored in a file or in a container in the Cryptographic Service Provider. The Sn.exe (Strong Name Tool) creates the file or container. The container name is specified by the user when running the tool, and that same name is used in this property. For more information, see Strong-Named Assemblies.

A cryptographic service provider is an independent software module that performs cryptography algorithms for authentication, encoding, and encryption. For more information, see Cryptographic Services.

Examples

This example generates a binary file that contains the key pair. To view the generated file, use the Sn.exe (Strong Name Tool). To run this example as an add-in, see How to: Compile and Run the Automation Object Model Code Examples. Open a Visual Basic or Visual C# project before running this example.
