SignatureSpi.EngineGetParameter(String) Method

Definition

Caution

deprecated

Gets the value of the specified algorithm parameter.

[Android.Runtime.Register("engineGetParameter", "(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/Object;", "GetEngineGetParameter_Ljava_lang_String_Handler")]
[System.Obsolete("deprecated")]
protected abstract Java.Lang.Object? EngineGetParameter (string? param);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("engineGetParameter", "(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/Object;", "GetEngineGetParameter_Ljava_lang_String_Handler")>]
[<System.Obsolete("deprecated")>]
abstract member EngineGetParameter : string -> Java.Lang.Object

Parameters

param
String

the string name of the parameter.

Returns

the object that represents the parameter value, or null if there is none.

Attributes

Exceptions

if param is not a valid parameter for this SignatureSpi or an other error occurs.

Remarks

Gets the value of the specified algorithm parameter. This method supplies a general-purpose mechanism through which it is possible to get the various parameters of this object. A parameter may be any settable parameter for the algorithm, such as a parameter size, or a source of random bits for signature generation (if appropriate), or an indication of whether or not to perform a specific but optional computation. A uniform algorithm-specific naming scheme for each parameter is desirable but left unspecified at this time.

This member is deprecated. Deprecated.
