Yeah, I thought of that - when I first did this a few months ago, I did as you suggested, but then, I think, the mono implementation differs from the .NET implementation - where I think .NET generates key in constructor, but since key generation is so expensive, mono delays key generation until something needs it, just *hoping* the RSA object will be disposed unused (which is probably very rare, I'm guessing). Which is the reason that I do the export of the key. It's the cheapest way I can see to force creation of the key. _______________________________________________ Mono-devel-list mailing list Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list
