Rijndael encryption - can I supply my own encryption key? : DOTNET
This is a discussion on Rijndael encryption - can I supply my own encryption key? within the DOTNET forums in Framework and Interface Programming category; The 2.0 Framework SDK only has examples where the Rijndael class instance provides the key. I've tried setting my own key value, making sure my key length matches the KeySize property of my Rijndael instance. I always get "invalid key". Am I misunderstanding the concept - if I don't set and keep my own key, how will I be able to decrypt later? Any ideas or example would be much appreciated. RJ...

| Re: Rijndael encryption - can I supply my own encryption key? If I remember correctly, the key needs to be a byte array - might want to check thats what your providing.
