Implements: ICipherParameters

Remarks

Parameterised Skein can be used for:

MAC generation, by providing a key.
Randomised hashing, by providing a nonce.
A hash function for digital signatures, associating a public key with the message digest.
A key derivation function, by providing a key identifier.
Personalised hashing, by providing a recommended format or arbitrary personalisation string.

Constructors

SkeinParameters

Initializes a new instance of the SkeinParameters class

Methods

Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetKey	Obtains the value of the key parameter, or C# `null` if not set.
GetKeyIdentifier	Obtains the value of the key identifier parameter, or C# `null` if not set.
GetNonce	Obtains the value of the nonce parameter, or C# `null` if not set.
GetParameters	Obtains a map of type (int) to value (byte[]) for the parameters tracked in this object.
GetPersonalisation	Obtains the value of the personalisation parameter, or C# `null` if not set.
GetPublicKey	Obtains the value of the public key parameter, or C# `null` if not set.
GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
