This structure contains an array of bytes. In a CRYPT_BIT_BLOBstructure, the last byte in the array can contain zero to seven unused bits. Therefore, the number of meaningful bits in the pbDatamember is equal to cbData* 8 – cUnusedBits.

Syntax 

typedef struct _CRYPT_BIT_BLOB {
  DWORD 
cbData;
  BYTE* 
pbData;
  DWORD 
cUnusedBits;
} CRYPT_BIT_BLOB, *PCRYPT_BIT_BLOB;

Members

cbData

Number of bytes in the pbDataarray of bytes.

pbData

Pointer to an array representing a block of data bytes.

cUnusedBits

Number of unused bits in the last byte of the array.

Requirements

Header wincrypt.h
Windows Embedded CE Windows CE 3.0 and later
Windows Mobile Windows Mobile Version 5.0 and later
