First of all, the FCL part (System.* namespaces) are in general based on
Silverlight and CoreCLR based API profile. We have some extensions but
that's the basic. Similar design also applies to Windows Phone 7.
AesCryptoServiceProvider is only part of full .NET, not in Silverlight.
That class depends on some congifuration stack that does not exist in
those mobile profiles. We have no plan to implement it, there is no
reason to do so.
On the other hand, AesManaged exists, so you could just use it instead.

Hi guys,
loves this mailing list. I am working with some aes encryption but the
following implementation produces an error -
The type or namespace name 'AesCryptoServiceProvider' could not be found
(are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
public static string EncryptString(string plainSourceStringToEncrypt,
string passPhrase)
{
//Set up the encryption objects
using (AesCryptoServiceProvider acsp =
GetProvider(Encoding.Default.GetBytes(passPhrase)))
{
byte[] sourceBytes =
Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(plainSourceStringToEncrypt);
ICryptoTransform ictE = acsp.CreateEncryptor();
//Set up stream to contain the encryption
MemoryStream msS = new MemoryStream();
//Perform the encrpytion, storing output into the stream
CryptoStream csS = new CryptoStream(msS, ictE,
CryptoStreamMode.Write);
csS.Write(sourceBytes, 0, sourceBytes.Length);
csS.FlushFinalBlock();
//sourceBytes are now encrypted as an array of secure bytes
byte[] encryptedBytes = msS.ToArray(); //.ToArray() is
important, don't mess with the buffer
//return the encrypted bytes as a BASE64 encoded string
return Convert.ToBase64String(encryptedBytes);
}
}
Is the AesCryptoServiceProvider not implemented in mono or is it just some
stupid mistake - regards
