Cannot convert the usage of System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithm class

[AC 0]

I wrote the following code in my Windows Phone Silverlight 8.1 project：

 

internal class MD5Managed : HashAlgorithm
{
    private ABCDStruct _abcd;
    ...
    ...

 

    public MD5Managed()
    {
        HashSizeValue = 0x80;
        Initialize();
    }

 

    public override sealed void Initialize()
    {
        ...
        ...
    }

 

}

 

As you see, I inherit System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithm class.
After I use "Silverlight bridge to UWP" to convert my project to uwp,
the app cannot run,
it shows message "The type or namespace name could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference",
What should I do?

 

Thanks

Alex

Hi AC !

System.Security.Cryptography namespace changed considerably between UWP and WIndows Phone SL APIs.  There is not current mapping for it in the tool so you need to refactor your code in order to make it compile and run with the new API.

I hope it helps you !
