Remarks

This method encrypts the data provided via InputFile or InputStream in accordance with PKCS#7 standard.

If encrypted with an EncryptionCertificate a message of EnvelopedData subtype is created. The private key that corresponds to the certificate is needed to decrypt the data.

If encrypted with Key, a message of EncryptedData subtype is formed. The receiving party needs the same key as provided in Key to decrypt the message.

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
