Syntax
Remarks
The System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.KeyInfoRetrievalMethod class represents the <RetrievalMethod> element for both XML encryption and XML digital signatures.
Use the System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.KeyInfoRetrievalMethod class to reference the same System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.KeyInfo information in multiple XMLDSIG signatures or encrypted XML documents, especially when the referenced information is large. For example, a <RetrievalMethod> subelement can be used to reference a System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.KeyInfoX509Data object that contains an X.509v3 certificate chain, which validates the signing key.
For more information about the <RetrievalMethod> element, see Section 4.4.3 of the XMLDSIG specification, which is available from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) at www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/, or see the XML Encryption specification, which is available from the W3C at www.w3.org/TR/xmlenc-core/.
