Element Description
<oidEntry> Maps an ASN.1 OID to a friendly name.

Example

The following example shows how to use the <oidMap> element to contain a mapping of an OID for the RIPEMD-160 hash algorithm to an implementation of that hash algorithm.

<configuration>
   <mscorlib>
      <cryptographySettings>
         <cryptoNameMapping>
            <cryptoClasses>
               <cryptoClass   MyCrypto="MyCryptoClass, MyAssembly
                  Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=a5d015c7d5a0b012,
                  Version=1.0.0.0"/>
            </cryptoClasses>
            <nameEntry name="RIPEMD-160" class="MyCrypto"/>
         </cryptoNameMapping>
         <oidMap>
            <oidEntry OID="1.3.36.3.2.1"  name="MyCryptoClass"/>
         </oidMap>
      </cryptographySettings>
   </mscorlib>
</configuration>
