Namespace:  System.Security.Cryptography
Assembly:  System.Security (in System.Security.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function SignData ( _
    data As Byte(), _
    offset As Integer, _
    count As Integer _
) As Byte()
public byte[] SignData(
    byte[] data,
    int offset,
    int count
)
public:
array<unsigned char>^ SignData(
    array<unsigned char>^ data, 
    int offset, 
    int count
)
member SignData : 
        data:byte[] * 
        offset:int * 
        count:int -> byte[] 
public function SignData(
    data : byte[], 
    offset : int, 
    count : int
) : byte[]

Parameters

  • count
    Type: System. . :: . .Int32
    The length of the string, in characters, following offset that will be signed.

Return Value

Type: array<System. . :: . .Byte> [] () [] []
A digital signature for the specified length of data.

Remarks

This method generates a signature for the specified data by hashing the input data using the HashAlgorithm property, and then signing the result.
