Re: WSE 2.0 Example not compiling for KeyAlgorithm

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

WSE2.0 is definitely for working with VS2003. It is WSE3.0 that is
compatible with VS2005. So you are okay there.

As for KeyAlgorithm, if you point to that word in code, right click on it,
and select "go to definition", you will find that it is a class inside of
the WSE 2.0 API. More precisely:

Microsoft.Web.Services2.Security.Cryptography.KeyAlgorithm
