PLAINTEXTKEYBLOB structure

The PLAINTEXTKEYBLOB structure is used to contain parameter header information for a plaintext key. This structure is used with the pbData parameter for CryptImportKey and CryptExportKey functions.

Syntax

typedef struct _PLAINTEXTKEYBLOB {
 BLOBHEADER hdr;
 DWORD      dwKeySize;
 BYTE       rgbKeyData[];
} PLAINTEXTKEYBLOB, *PPLAINTEXTKEYBLOB;

Members

• hdr
  A PUBLICKEYSTRUC that indicates the type of BLOB and the algorithm that the key uses.

• dwKeySize
  The size, in bytes, of the key material.

• rgbKeyData[]
  The key material.
