CreateHashAlgorithm(HashAlgorithmName)
Creates a HashAlgorithm instance for a specific hash algorithm.
public virtual System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithm CreateHashAlgorithm (System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithmName algorithm);abstract member CreateHashAlgorithm : System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithmName -> System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithm
override this.CreateHashAlgorithm : System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithmName -> System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithmPublic Overridable Function CreateHashAlgorithm (algorithm As HashAlgorithmName) As HashAlgorithmParameters
- algorithm
- HashAlgorithmName
The name of the hash algorithm to create.
Returns
A HashAlgorithm instance that corresponds to the specified algorithm.
Exceptions
Thrown if algorithm is null or empty.
Thrown if Create(String, Object[]) returns a type that is not assignable to HashAlgorithm.
Thrown if algorithm is not supported.
Remarks
Once done with the HashAlgorithm, call ReleaseHashAlgorithm(HashAlgorithm).
If CustomCryptoProvider is set and IsSupportedAlgorithm(String, Object[]) returns true, Create(String, Object[]) is called to obtain the HashAlgorithm.
