Returns the SHA-1 hash for a nonce, a timestamp, and a password.

Namespace: Microsoft.Web.Services2.Security.Tokens
Assembly: Microsoft.Web.Services2 (in microsoft.web.services2.dll)

Usage

'Usage
Dim nonce() As Byte
Dim created As DateTime
Dim secret As String
Dim returnValue() As Byte
returnValue = UsernameToken.ComputePasswordDigest(nonce, created, secret)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Shared Function ComputePasswordDigest( _
    ByVal nonce() As Byte, _
    ByVal created As DateTime, _
    ByVal secret As String _
) As Byte()

public static byte[] ComputePasswordDigest(
    byte[] nonce, 
    DateTime created, 
    string secret
);

public: static array<Byte>^ ComputePasswordDigest(
    array<Byte>^ nonce, 
    DateTime^ created, 
    String^ secret
);

public static ubyte[] ComputePasswordDigest(
    ubyte[] nonce, 
    DateTime created, 
    System.String secret
);

public static function ComputePasswordDigest(
     nonce : Byte[], 
     created : DateTime, 
     secret : String
) : Byte[];

Parameters

nonce
An array of type System.Byte containing a nonce value.

created
A System.DateTime specifying a timestamp.

secret
A password.

Return Value

An array of type System.Byte containing the SHA-1 digest for a nonce, a timestamp, and a password.

Remarks

Typically, the ComputePasswordDigest method is only called by WSE. WSE uses the ComputePasswordDigest method for outgoing SOAP messages. To get the value of the SHA-1 hash for an incoming SOAP message, use the PasswordDigest property.
