Parameters: |
Key | ||||||||
Required. The handle to the key for which values are to be set. | ||||||||
Param | ||||||||
Required text or numeric. A parameter specifying the value to be set. CAPI (Cryptography API) providers are specified using numeric identifiers. Values are defined in WinCrypt.h CNG (Cryptography New Generation) algorithm providers are specified using text identifiers. |
||||||||
Value | ||||||||
An optional parameter containing the value to which the keys parameter is to be set. If omitted or invalid then the value 0 is used. Warning: Accidentally passing a value that is meant to be a number but is actually stored as text, "42", will cause an error. |
||||||||
Flags | ||||||||

Error | ||||||||
Required. An optional variable in which the error code for the function is returned. It has the following meaning:

Comments: | The allowable values for Param vary with the key type. |
Example:
[ Constant KP_G = 12 { DSS/Diffie-Hellman G value }; ] Init [ If 1 Main; [ { Set the key parameter } SetKeyParam(Key2, KP_G, KeyG); ] ]
