−
<p>The following example demonstrates the use of the legacy selector to retrieve+
−
the characteristics of an asymmetric cipher object. In the example, an implementation+
−
object is constructed (making use of an RSA Key Pair also generated by the+
−
framework) and returned. The plug-in characteristics and extended characteristics+
−
associated with the object are then accessed. </p>+
